I'm a singer first and pianist second with no intention to change

I have any use for the sort of piano skills one needs to play with
a combo that has other instruments doing the bass and solos.
Hi Mark,
I didn't mean to suggest that there was any reason to go further than
you needed or wanted. You can get a good idea of simple spacings
from your experience with Fox - apply chord symbol names to those
arrangements, and then reverse the process as you read fake book
changes. At least that's how it would occur to me to learn the
technique. Anyway, I just wish you fun and want to encourage you.
