the strum and JJ Johnson...

taking to a guy playing some nice beatles in the music shop with partial chords and all!
he played sweet.
said he couldn't strum.
I mentioned Olivia Newton John and Banks of the Ohio which has the most delicious 4/4 strum you have ever heard.
it sounds so friggin simple but you try it.
anyway he went of on a tangent before I could describe it so there ya go.
as for JJ Johnson.
he is the ttrombone virtuoso.
the closest thing in NZ is Roger Fox.
anyway when the bone steps up it has a flavour all of its own
amlistening to JJ right now.
