Improvisation in A Dorian. My first try at a jazz backing track. I'm dissapointed I wasn't able to accomplish this Improvisation better...might do a retake.

ST Improv. Challenge #10. This was a hard track to keep together for 4+ minutes, but I think I did okay. Enjoy!

This was a first take improvisation, done in the key of E, Phrygian scale. I tried my best to play around the scale, as much as possible, while staying in my comfort zone. I did experiment a little though, which I hope you'll be able to hear. Enjoy!

This was done basically first take. The track is rather repetitive, so as I think you can tell, I did some experimenting--out of my normal box kinda stuff. Although it all is okay, if you have a short attention span, I recommend listening to the last 2 minutes or so...seems I pulled it together a lot smoother during that time.
Enjoy!

ST Improvisation Challenge #7. Once again, I caught a cold, so not my best.
Not the whole track, as I was getting worn out by the organ solo. A hard track to improvise to, atleast for me.

ST Challenge #48. Only use bass or wound strings. Came down with a cold today...not up to par but its a try.
Rhythm backing is my acoustic, lead, electric. Recorded via my looper.

ST Challenge to play a movie or TV show theme song. I chose _____. Can you guess what TV show it is? The timing is a little off, and sound quality not the greatest. For that, I apologize.
