You gonna do Echoes?
It's pretty epic. It's a true masterpiece, I think. I highly doubt you will be disapointed.

I listened to it

I liked it, but I wouldn't really go that far with it.

when a single piece of music is that long, I kinda expect more development. the individual sections are good on their own, but I think I would have liked it better if each part was a single self-contained unit, rather than claiming to be part of a cohesive whole

I get that.
I prefer to think of it as a story told in 3 acts. I don't think the transitions would have the same power, if it weren't contiguous.

Why are any of you giving a damn what TC has to say about anything? He has recently publicly posted multiple times saying we should execute the successful and their children.

He is a self-admitted revolutionary communist. You literally cannot become more radical left than TC is.

for free, your best option is probably youtube tutorials and watching videos of people playing. those can still be great resources even if they're not the only ones you have access to. just be aware that this stuff takes time.

Do you think "The Hannukah Song" by Adam Sandler is just a ripoff of the song "Crimson and Clover" by the Shondells?

I don't know the latter song at all

EDIT: Although to be clear, if a topic is about jazz we should probably leave politics out of it.

Are you actually arguing that joel isn't an open avowed communist? I was happy leaving it at that picture to show that fluffy wasn't completely full of shit and letting people go back to jazz, but if you need more screenshots where joel openly defends, if not argues for communism, there are no shortage of posts to dig up.

You're charging them a fee for your services and this fee is for your benefit. By your communist logic, is this not exploitation?
