Reviews
i had been playing for several years without taking any lessons when i started working with fred simmons, who teaches at my university. after about a year i found this book in my basement. i had bought it but didn’t know what to do with it. i took it to fred, who also had it but hadn’t gone through it. i’ve been working on it now for three months and i love it. it’s hard for me, unlike any approach i’d seen. but it’s really worth the effort. a really great approach to voicings and diminished chords, especially the tweaked versions. no idea where it will lead, but i’m digging the ride immensely.
