Thanks for showing me how easy it was to use SoundCloud Crowbear!!!!
In case anyone's interested, I just uploaded a clip of my mom, Livvy Taylor (her stage name) playing a solo piano rendition of "Round Midnight" about 15 years ago. At 88 (like the keys on her piano  ), she still plays every bit this good! 
Hope you enjoy!

| Your mom is sooooo cool. You could drop in a click track to that and she would be right there.. Apple's certainly don't fall too far from the tree my friend!.. Extra-special stuff. |

I have also had the problem of playing steel, on several tours in Europe, with Rick playing bass, but he is so humble and self-effacing that he always bolstered me up enough to get through the gigs! He is a wonderful multi-instrumentalist and has a musical brain the size of a planet. I can imagine that any tuition he is offering must be first-class and shouldn't be missed.
A small aside: I was so impressed by his Mom's piano-playing that he kindly gave me a CD, of her phenomenally tasteful jazz playing, that he'd put together.
Rick is a diamond - thanks for being my friend, Rick.

Just finished my 2nd Skype lesson with Rick and it worked out really well. He has his presentation all dialed in & I didn't even have to leave home for the lesson! I can't say enough about what a great asset it is. And obviously Rick is a very deeeep well of information.
Thanks again Rick!
