I know right, this is SO great. O Pato is another good call as well. Thanks Ted!

What’s making this piece so damn swinging? Is it that milli second the bass is driving ahead while the guitar stays perfectly in time? The articulation of horn and piano? It seems to me that Oscar is sometimes a ms behind the beat in his solo part.? It’s interesting to figure that out.

Impossible Question Of The Day: What makes something swing or have great feel? I love the image of a person holding a big strong dog on a leash. The dog is straining to get away, and if the leash breaks, the dog is GONE. The person is dug in and pulling back, holding the dog in place. Neither are really moving forward or back, but both are sort of vibrating in place. There is SO MUCH energy in this little scene, but nothing is happening. I think this image has something to do with a compelling feel.
