Thanks. That's right. I was doing GB or DGB, but I think FAbB is closer than FAbBD.
...but I definitely don't try to play like the CD
Yea. The point in the exercise is to play it like the cd though. For me, I always try to play songs like the cd first then I'll add to it afterwards. Most of the time, though, it's just revoicing a chord after playing it the cd's way first.
I've found out that once you make it to the big times, they don't want to know how much you can add your own thing into a song, but how accurate you can play a song. I hear this a lot from people that play jazz gigs.
