Great podcast! I'm sure that your listeners have heard of the Mark Levine books, but I wanted to make a plug for Jeb Patton. He's got these books called "An Approach to Comping" where he actually transcribed the comps of famous recordings, like Red Garland, Hank Jones, Bud Powell, and Ahmad Jamal. Check it out if you haven't! I learned stuff from his books that I apply to my guitar playing. Heck, if you're in NYC--do yourself a favor--look him up. I think he still teaches out of Queens College--nice guy and a great teacher. Oh yeah, he's a phenomenal player too!

ADAM and Peter! Lovely podcast, as always. One thing I learned about comping is that great comping stands alone as a solo of sorts underneath the lead musician.

Nice one guys, especially like the Red Garland and Peter tips of playing on the "and" of 2 and 4 and Peter's "and" of 3. Keep 'em coming

Love hearing from u guys over there in the promised land. HEY ADAM- I always had two pedals on my piano growing up, now there seems to be three- I get how it works and love it for sustaining a bass note and playing short on top, is this where ‘pedal bass’ comes from and how do you use it? Thanks for everything am & pm

Thanks for the great podcast! I just wanted to ask: Do you have any suggestions for recordings where the comping instrument is missing so that we can practice comping with real recordings? Like a Blues without Guitar, Piano or any other comping instrument? Thanks and all the best

It's just two guys talking. It's a waste of time watching it.
