Nice job, friends! Thanks for posting this video and sharing your playing of Solo No. 146. I was introduced to the 150 Solos book when I was in junior high and found it to be very challenging and somewhat intimidating. In more recent years, I had a the good fortune to have a lesson with jazz drumming great, Kenny Washington. He explained that Philly Joe Jones devoted alot of energy practicing Wilcoxon solos and interpreting them in a very swinging manner. Like Wilcoxon's Rudimental Swing Solos, the 150 solos can be interpreted in numerous ways, just as we see snare drummers all around do with the famous 12 Delecluse Etudes for Snare Drum. Rick Dior is a terrific and extremely accomplished, versatile percussionist / drummer , who shares alot of his work on youtube. For those inspired by your fine work here, I recommend additionally checking out RIck's tips on Wilcoxon. Here is his link. Again, bravo on your fine and enthusiastic playing! kzbin.info/www/bejne/naWrf6R3l9hpbbM

First time I've ever heard Tina speak! Seen her face a million times though, lol! I hope to meet her at a gig some time. She's an interesting person. AND obviously, a master musician!

Hey Jacob! I really enjoyed your and Tina's playing! I made it to this video after watching Wilcoxon No. 111 with David. Excellent stuff right here, I think your project is great. What a great way to pay homage to the rudimental tradition and to get to know fellow percussionists better. This was a gem to find, and I especially appreciate the interview with Tina that you included. Really cool to hear about her back story. Happy practicing!

Hi Jacob, I'm Mr. Nobody who has watched quite a few of your 150 solo's quest! I went to your .com page and see that you have completed them all, congrats on your project. I'll check out some more and maybe write in on some of them. This one and Joe LaBarbera (which was one of Tina's teachers) are my favorite! Thanks...............TF

Thanks Tim! Yeah I finished the whole book about a year ago, it was a really fun and beneficial experience. I've been trying to put out some videos from the "Swing Solos" book as well, but that, along with everything, is on hold right now...
