the Groove



Chapter 1: http://www.victorwooten.c...musiclesson/tml01.html


from: http://www.victorwooten.com/themusiclesson.html



 A young friend stopped by a couple months ago. We used to have a band together about 15 years ago. He lives in Colorado now and works FOH at shows for a day job. He brought me a copy of this book as a gift and told me it had made a great impact on his self. He mentioned that it reminded him of stuff we had been talking about back in the day and thought I would enjoy it.

 I started reading the book last night and was surprised to see that chapter one is about the "groove".

    That's a co-incidence I just saw a discussion going on this very forum just now about the very subject.

    Funny how things can all crop up within a similar time-frame.  Like buses I guess you wait ages then all of sudden two turn up at once.

    It's seems as if there is an underlying sub-rhythm going on beneath the surface at times that some are more attuned to than others.

    It's incredible stuff.  Thanks for sharing.

    Synchronicity???? … not that I am a Jungian kinda’ guy.

    I bet you if we Audiosnapped these 2 threads, they would line up exactly … not sure if I’d call that groove though, and in my opinion you would have to change the titles.

    I see the potential for some complex poly-rhythms occuring that become more than the mere sum of the two parts...

    The bonus of throwing in a bit of spiritual growth into the bargain is never to be sniffed at either, although I must admit divine frequencies is my main area of interest there, especially when they are evoked in obscure nashville tuning techniques.

    It's a big subject.
