by Karel VijfschaftIncredible amount of information!
Mike is not only an incredible musician but has a down to earth and very direct way of explaining these examples so people can understand them. I purchased this lesson and have been learning a tremendous amount with these licks from the master Cannonball.
by David LivolsiThis is incredible stuff.
Wow! This is certainly incredible. Many jazz lovers agree that Cannonball Adderley was one of the great alto players. I know that some folks prefer bebop over the “hard bop” that happened in the 1960; however, Cannonball really does extend, amend, and carry on the bebop contribution that began with Charlie Parker. Mike has obviously studied Cannonball’s music in great detail. One can really sense Mike’s love for and devotion to this music in this video. In “The Inprov Style of Cannonball Adderley for Guitar” Mike shows all of the details of a faithful guitar version of 12 licks from Cannonball’s music. This is just over one hour of intense instruction. Some students might absorb all of this material quickly, but, I must admit, that it is going to take me many hours of study to get all of the amazing details of a few of these licks under my fingers. I highly recommend this instructional video. Thank you, Mike.
