Tim. You are such a magnificent source of information and inspiration here. TO provide this wealth of knowledge for the price of just a click on a link. You are a beautiful cat, man. The great teacher Jerry Grey once said to me "never be afraid to show someone your (stuff); no one in the world has time and energy to learn everything." And I say, if they do... ain't nothing I do is gonna slow them down and why would I want to.

Peace and blessings man.

Swampcabbage...You are to kind! Thank you. I dug your Jerry Grey quote...and what you said. Thank you.

ONE THING, I did when I set these SOTW studys up is try to add all the ~ elements~ a person would need for free!!! RIGHT HERE ON SOTW. FREE!!!
9 X OUTTA 10....With major, minor, diminished, blues and 11-v's there is a ton of info that just becomes information. Folks buy book after book, with different agendas on each book....but the thing is TO GRASP THE INFO....Put it to practical use and then step on. To many publishers got the player in a fog, with this book, that concept. When they are basically selling the same stuff....IF....The buyer knew it. Lately I've got " some other books" ( smile) that I'm shopping
for a publisher for. Books on vertical lines like this...http://www.timpricejazz.com/lessons/newpdfs/VerticalExcersizesOnIIVs.pdf
With _substitute 11-v stuff_ but I can't put to much of that up free, cuz hey I gotta make a living too LOL. But- I will get a publisher, to get " hard copy" on the streets.
I'm not interested in the download thing, I want my books to be engraved by the publisher ( LIKE THE THREE BOOKS I DO HAVE OUT ) and sold at a good fair price.

SO THANKS AGAIN....You made my day. I wanted to respond but have been on the go a bunch. I'm a lucky person and grateful for posts like yours.

BTW- Here's a blog that I did that sheds some light on my current mind set.... http://ricoreeds.blogspot.com/2011/11/tim-price-bloggin-for-rico-shifting-our.html

The part of ..." freedom and personal forward motion"...I've been using a lot. More time for the real and things moving forward now in my life. Check the Big Nick idea too.
Anyhow- hope to meet you someday SWAMP. Best to you !!!

I've checked out nearly every single one of these over time in my music career that is still young.

I'm going to have to set these up in a binder, this is quite a great list of knowledge,thoughts, and routines. I'm just one person, and this stuff right here is the real deal and should be turned into a large bulky book, I think whether this is FREE or have a price its worth taking a look into, and put deep thought over. This is what everybody (musicians/teachers) preach constantly, and reading something doesn't do much but applying it to something you can learn will go miles when its lodged in your head.

Just thought I would say something about these since I've been checking them out for a while now.

THANK YOU FOR THE KIND WORDS....And nice thoughts. I do appreciate it.

Over 10 years and more ago on SOTW, When these were started I did it to help those sax players who were buying books in vein. Most cats buy the same stuff over and over again. When you really need what I put up there for FREE. No more no less. As I say, right here on SOTW for free. The ii-v stuff is real. Stuff that sticks.
Another thing is...The publishing world has to many books out there with the same stuff in but not enough real explanations and not enough REAL help. I found that out when I published my transcription books. Damn. I wanted to re-write a Rubank based method with a DVD that would be more "hands on" for saxes and woodwinds but got some intellectual shucking and jiving so well, that I knew I had the right idea so I copyrighted my idea the next day- and am still trying to find a publisher!

WHAT I GOT HERE ON SOTW.....Ain't nothing but a gift. If your smart enough to find and use it. YOU GOT IT.:) My pleasure. I teach enough and note with extreme intrest that many of my students of EVERY level kinda want/need the same elements found here.

I put in a handwritten page, fwiw...I have some harmonic agendas that are way cool. As a few of my SKYPE students can attest.#1 is Line studys that use chords and use a large amount of re-writing your own based on mine.
#2-is a 12 level set of pentatonics based on scales that have flat 5 or natural 5 or even flat 2 in them with all kinds of chord functions with 5 note pentatonics- this IS very advanced but worth the trip.

Those two topics are study aspects I teach only.

I have 5 more books I'm trying to publish. Some on Vertical Sax Playing, one on Slominsky-Coltrane based concepts and a few others. I WILL find a publisher. I'm not into the on line book thing as these books have a huge content and I am into also the legal part as well.

That said, I'm glad you enjoy the stuff- that makes my day. The II-V stuff is so much fun. Happy holidays....thanks again.
