"So go ahead Fran let's hear your in depth constructive review?"

Oh, what the heck, you'll get over it


Even a simple 3 chord rock and roll tune can benefit from these three suggestions..


(1)Even rock piano uses dynamics on piano(adjust the keys to react to your playing), and sustain pedal is usually a must..

(2)Wide open "growl" sax will sound more realistic with variations within the sound (again dynamics), and you got to take a breath

(3) Organ players always use a volume (expression) pedal..


Now that wasn't so bad..was it?

Most of us are guilty of some or all of those. Mostly when my sax player forgets to breathe it's because I'm thinking of something else instead of playing.
I never use a volume pedal. Better if I did I suppose but I only have two feet.
Only in recent years have I used a sustain pedal much. Never played piano, and they didn't have them for organ, so I never learned. Now I purposely make myself use it and I'm getting slighter better with it.

Thank you ALL for the private messages.

Donny - haven't had a Ketron (yet) but thanks for the great demo of the SD7 sounds and styles! Very nice demo and a very nice arranger too!

Randy thanx for the listen,....
I would think as a Sax player/with vocals
and using a Ketron SD90 module for backing
would be the ultimate rig..
