and, if you add toots' short version of "Laura" to the lesson, that's enough to 
keep me busy for months.....

where does the time go? (rhetorical question, not a comment about the rhythm 
section)

I mentioned this to someone else here, but I'll put it out now.... one good key 
to getting comfortable with the upper parts of chords, is to use Mark Levine's 
Piano Jazz book.... I'm not a piano player, but some of the ideas he has, have 
started to open some harmonic doors for me, and I suspect that soon, I won't 
even understand my own playing.... but some of the previously "strange" notes 
are starting to sound Normal to me....

progress? or impending tone deafness?

I think that's another rhetorical question....

Isn't it?
