Re: Shakes/Doits

Hey Danny -

I honestly have never thought of this, but it makes sense.

I think that rather than using alternate fingerings, I'll sometimes do a 1/2 valve thing during the shake. That way the pitch isn't as pronounced (like your G-Bb on a Gmaj7 example). It seems that it would make the Bb not stick out as much. Just a thought.

Any other ideas?

Tony
