PAS Article on developing vocabulary

If anyone is interested, this is an article I wrote for PAS's periodical. I geared it towards a college student who is a percussion performance/education major, but the hardcore jazzer can get just as much out of it (I hope). Some of the musical spelling in the examples got botched (Fb is supposed to be E natural). Hopefully you guys like it.

TOTM - The Art of Solo Vibes - QDV-SOC On Solo Playing - Pt. 1

QDV = Quick and Dirty Video
SOC = Stream of Conciousness

That's exactly what this vid is. I don't have my equipment at my house at the time of this video. So I just threw up an overhead cam and mic.

Is this helpful to anyone? I got more of them. I was just picking tunes and playing and talk about solo playing.

Let me know what you think.
