This is what I was doing when you called
Maybe I should call this the Ornette Coleman Blog (a study of his music). Most of what I do on the saxophone is make noise, I don’t really practice it like I do the piano. But this time I decided to actually learn a song, so I transcribed “Lonely Woman” by Ornette Coleman on the Alto. In this recording I played it into the soundboard of my upright piano and recorded the strings vibrating as well as the saxophone. It adds an interesting kind of reverb to the track. Also listen for Hudson calling me as my phone vibrates towards the end. It cuts off right on cue. I had to keep going, it was the best take. (note to self, turn phone off while recording.)
