“Good Morning Heartache” quarantine edition

Hey folks, Bored again. Covid bored. Fuck. Here is take 1 of GMH. Great tune. Problem for me is I heard the Joe Henderson version of this when I was 20 and I can’t get the Joe-isms out of my head when I play it ever since. It’s an amazing cut but I think it … Continue reading →

Stand Alone Playing

Posted on March 25, 2021 by Chris Fagan • Leave a comment

Hey folks, I wanted to share this part of an ongoing avenue of my practice to develop “stand alone” solo playing of both standards and free tunes.
