If I save this as a .pdf file, the music notation on bars 13 and 14 splits in half, with the lower notes spreading onto the top part of page 3.

Okay, thanks!

I just checked this & saw what you mean. I did those & I think I know what happened. Those are some of the really old lessons that I redid last year. When I updated the notation I didn't account for how the print layout on the site had changed in the meantime.

I added a space before measure 13 on my original image & reuploaded it. I looks good on my end. See if it looks better now on your end.

On a different subject: I've just been looking at your Soulful R&B lessons. Judging by your facial expressions and body language, I'd say you really enjoyed making those. It's the most chilled I've seen any of the instructors on here.

You're absolutely right. I really did enjoy doing those. It's a style I love playing because it fuses aspects of blues, jazz & rock in a creative way. Thanks for the positive feedback!

Hi again, Chris.

I've just checked the notation. Looks good. But.... I've found this problem on quite a lot of your lessons (including R&B series 1 & 2). Why does technology have to be such a pain when all we want to do is enjoy learning and playing music???????

When I first found your scales and triads lessons, my first thoughts were "God, they're repetitive!". Then I decided to give them a try because I had neglected both areas in the past.

Now I see the benefits of the repetition. I'm also seeing ever-increasing options when improvising as a result of this repetition.

Thank you sooooo much.

Could you do a series on extended chord inversions, please? I've started playing around with dominant 7 to begin with and am starting to see the options on inversions of extended chords appear endless, especially once dropping notes becomes a necessity (drop the root because the bass player can take care of that, keep the 3rd so it's major or minor (or drop the 3rd and it can be either), drop the 5th because that's "implied", etc.....)


I wish I had four arms....   Then I could play rhythm and lead at the same time.
