2/4/11
Its been a good week considering the cold. Had to get my daughter's car jump started a couple of times. Found out that my hood doesn't open! Gonna have to go get that fixed.
Did some walks. And it is too cold to go into my uninsulated garage to fix up the gym area. Gonna keep that on check for now.
I did get to work on lyrics for some Esteban Jordan songs and also working on the chords. Starting to get the "signature" patterns down like a 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 type of scale for the preparación (transition to the IV chord usually via a I7). It's nice and he uses it as a strong preparación and sometimes just within a song in going to the IV. Starting to hear some patterns in the bass lines as well.
This will be a fun journey! On 2/23 I'm going to the World Famous Blue Jeans Lounge to listen to the Esteban Jordan songs they have on the juke box and drink a few beers.
KEEP LEFTING!!!
