It’s Neil Young’s 80th birthday. Here is my arrangement of his song “You and Me” that I uploaded to the internet 13 years ago, when he was 67.

“Inspired fingerstyle arrangements of Mingus, Kraftwerk, Aphex Twin and Alice Coltrane open new pathways for post-Fahey guitar soli.” Finally got my hands on the November issue of The Wire.
Many thanks @thewiremagazine.bsky.social for the nice words about my set at Jazz Em Agosto in Lisbon.

Rip It Up And Start Again. I just finished reading this great book about post-punk. I love Simon Reynolds’ writing. I’m about halfway through “Energy Flash”, his tome on the history of electronic music.

“Chasin’ the Trane” by John Coltrane, born 99 years ago today. So grateful for his music.

Miles Davis’s trumpet solo on “Autumn Leaves” from the 1958 Cannonball Adderly album “Somethin’ Else” on Blue Note Records. This is my solo guitar interpretation this morning. It’s the first day of fall. A change is gonna come. 🍂

Today, cooler weather. I worked on arrangements for my next album, taught lessons on Bach, Frantz Casseus, and John Coltrane, drove my daughter all over town to her afterschool activities. It’s shaping up to be a nice fall despite the fact that we are racing towards full blown fascism. 🍂

I played a solo acoustic set in Lisbon in the most magnificent hall I’ve ever been in, to the most people I’ve ever played for. I played for an hour, but it felt like one minute. Thank you so much to Jazz Em Agosto and to everyone who came out to share this time with me.
