        Thanks for the welcome, Jake. I’m working on a few songs to play (solo) at my friend’s wedding in Vegas soon. What are you working on?

          Hiya Doctor Jose!

          Wow, Sir, it is a timely honour being to welcome you to Johnny’s site. Welcome!!
          Checked out your book website and it warmed the cockles of my heart to perceive.
          Thanking you kindly for the full and wonderful harmonious life you lead by example.
          Bless your healing hands, your huge heart and beating cotton sox. Tuff lips to you.
          And, thanks evers so much for joining and by chance being part of his founding team.

            I play in a classic rock duo. My buddy play Rythym guitar leaving me for all the leads on sax. Most of the songs we do don’t have sax in them so I spend a lotta time transposing.
            We do songs like hotel California, brown eyed girl, keep your hands to yourself and of course sax friendly urgent and old time rock n roll!!! So much fun.

              yes a big welcome Jose! Good luck with those new tunes…


              @saxomonica
              , speaking of timely…Tic Toc is one of my upcoming featured tunes for you guys. It will not only have full note-for-note transcription with backing track but also a tutorial as this performance by the great Lee Allen is a treasure chest full of brilliant blues/rock licks. You could literally take away dozens of ideas but even if you only steal 2 or 3 you’ll be doing great…and you will!

                Thank you kindly for your welcoming remarks, Saxomonica! I am speechless.
                Also, quite appropriate that you posted a video of 1958 – a good year. 🙂

                  Love it, Jake! For my friend’s wedding, I’m doing Ave Maria (bride’s request), Amazing Grace, Maria Elena (my wife’s name!), and What a Wonderful World. For now, I’m playing without backing tracks – but now that I’m a member, I look forward to playing with them! Then, at the reception, they’ve hired a band (without horns/woodwinds) and the couple have requested a cumbia, La Gallina.

                      sounds like fun Luis. I think you have access to 3 out of those 4 songs you mentioned…good luck with the wedding! (get someone to film your performance)

                        Thanks Johnny! Yes, it’s the first week-end in June, and my wife will definitely video tape it. Of course, I’d love to post some of the video on this forum. Blessings
