TLL Podcast #103 - Swimming with Jazz Sharks May 02, 2020

Show notes

This week, the master of Jazz, MIke Odo himself, returns to help us with some Jazz specific questions, and to discuss the Merits (and Demerits) of written music. The podcast starts with a question on how to get started with Jazz Chords and Jazz Songs. This brings up a conversation about Aldrine, Abe and Kalei Cutting Heads, and when Aldrine had to swim in a sea of Jazz Sharks. Aldrine mentions how much the Real Book helped him stay afloat, and this goes into the topic of the Pros and Cons of Written Music. The podcast ends with Aldrine helping someone finish their chord progression, and Mike giving his recommendations of Musicians to support online.

TLL Podcast #102 – When Less is More Apr 24, 2020

Show notes

Tennis Elbow, Scale Patterns, Soloing Mindset, When Less is More

This Week, we have a very special guest, Kaniho Giminiz. You might have Seen or Heard Kaniho from some of the Play Alongs. He's a longtime friend, and one of our go to musicians, so we're excited to have him on. The guys start off with an introduction to Kaniho, and the backstory of Kaniho and Aldrine's friendship. They then give their advice to members who are suffering from Tennis Elbow. Aldrine asks Kaniho what the Hawaiian word for Elbow is which leads to a brief tangent on Hawaiian names. Aldrine quickly shows some patterns to help remember Major and Minor Scales, and gives his opinions on inlays. A deep discussion on soloing takes Aldrine and Kaniho back to their school days, and Kaniho relates the old adage, "Sometimes Less is More" to soloing and accompanying. The podcast is finished with UU Mail and Kaniho's advice to Ukulele Players.
