Re: [Harp-L] Questing For a Basic Competency in Jazz

Hi all,

I am familiar with Conrad Cork's work.

I would also highly recommend John Elliot's follow-up work.  He has a
book out that has built upon Cork's.

I have had the pleasure of getting to know John Elliot online, and
find that his book is excellent.

It is very to the point, logically laid out and offers a lot to us
students of the jazz standard.

Conrad Cork has endorsed John's work, too.

I would recommend them both.

Here is a link to John Elliot's book:
