Hello everyone
I just stumbled accross the LCC about a week ago and have been reading up on the system. It looks to my like a very brilliant system, I´m kind of surpriced that this system is not the main curriculum in jazz schools?
Anyway, I looked oneline and found some copies for about 1000$, that is a bit out of my price range. Then I found the link to this site with a page for ordering the book http://www.lydianchromaticconcept.com/buyit.html Is the book still available here?
Thanks
Where can I get the book?

DO NOT make insulting, mean spirited remarks about anyone or their work; there are a plethora of sites where you can rant unfettered. If you attack someone personally, your comments will be removed. You can post it, but I'm not paying for it. Go elsewhere, and let those artists who are actually interested in discussion and learning have the floor. 2. There will be NO posting of or links to copyrighted material without permission of the copyright owner. That's the law. And if you respect the work of people who make meaningful contributions, you should have no problem following this policy. 3. I appreciate many of the postings from so many of you. Please don't feel you have to spend your time "defending" the LCC to those who come here with the express purpose of disproving it. George worked for decades to disprove it himself; if you know his music, there's no question that it has gravity. And a final word: George was famous for his refusal to lower his standards in all areas of his life, no matter the cost. He twice refused concerts of his music at Lincoln Center Jazz because of their early position on what was authentically jazz. So save any speculation about the level of him as an artist and a man. The quotes on our websites were not written by George; they were written by critics/writers/scholars/fans over many years. Sincerely, Alice
