Hey guys, it has been a looooong time since my last visit. Here's a video of me playing a song from John Riley's book "The Art of Be Bop Drumming". It's a drum less play along track that I added my own kit. Hope you like it.

Thanks Greg and Cliff. Several years ago, I took the time to study jazz independence from John Riley's books, now I'm learning to apply the things I learned musically. Thanks again for your kind words.

Very nice Greg - VERY VERY nice!!!

I'm a LOT surprised by this "jazz approach" that you have towards the drums in this recording!!!

Congratulations - it sounds and feels that You're starting to get comfortable in this genre....

Keep it up!!!!!!!!!!
