Skype and LJP jazz lessons
i just got my webcam and skype working. i'm somewhat serious about taking a few online students, so if you're at all interested, let me know. i need someone to test the technology on as well, which means someone gets a free lesson or two from helping me during testing.
oh yeah, there's also learnjazzpiano.com tv. yes, crazy isn't it? you can find it at:
https://www.ustream.tv/channel/learnjazzpiano.com
basically, i'm going to put my webcam and laptop near the piano when i'm practicing and working stuff out. nothing special, just let folks know what's going on when i'm at the piano. the only thing holding me back is that i need to make a longer network cable so i can plug in next to the piano.
fun stuff!

i think you're going to enjoy this a lot. i've started lessons with dave here a few weeks ago and it's really cool.
long network cable? why not wireless?
i'll check out your "tv" channel. what time do you usually play?
you probably won't have problems finding people for a free lesson, but in case you do, let me know, i'm happy to help.
i would love to help you test the setup... especially if it means a free lesson from a pro :-)
i am on a new mac at this end, with webcam built in. my mac is on a table next to my piano so should work fine.
to be honest i probably won't be a regular student, as i do a lot of self-teaching and i'm also a bit mean, but if it works well i might ask for a lesson now and then.
by the way, i'm in england.

Volume 1 of this educational jazz piano book contains 15 jazz piano exercises, tricks, and other interesting jazz piano techniques, voicings, grooves, and ideas Scot Ranney enjoys playing.
"Latinesque"
Volume 2 has 14 jazz piano exercises and tricks of the trade, and quite a bit of it is Calypso jazz piano related material, including some Monty Alexander and Michel Camilo style grooves. Jazz piano education is through the ears, but books like this can help.
Volume 3 contains 12 jazz piano exercises and explorations by the acclaimed jazz piano educator, pianist, author, and recording artist Tim Richards.
Tim wrote the well known "Exploring Jazz Piano" and "Improvising Blues Piano" books and has several others to his name.
Volume 4 is by Jeff Brent, a jazz pianist, composer, teacher, and author of "Modalogy" and other acclaimed jazz theory and education books. In this book Jeff shares detailed analysis of transcriptions of live performances. He covers everything from the shape of the songs to the tricks and licks he uses in improvised lines to the ideas behind his lush chord voicings.
