Great stuff - passed it on to our jazz band (we play four leaf clover) but told them it's not going to happen from me - they'll have to book Mark King!

One of the things I enjoy about this community is that there are always new things to discover.

Both he and Edgar have terrible technique (fingering arm/ hand position) at least according the 'experts', yet both of them are complete wizards.
