Whoa. I've been working on exactly this concept for the last couple semesters with Bob Magnusson and Richard Thompson at SDSU. Actually, you may know Richard, as I think he's mentioned you before. He's having me do this on "Moment's Notice" too. Is that tune a common vehicle for this kind of exercise?

Richard is an old friend. Great player. I brought him up to Portland for some gigs a few years ago.

I like this article because lately I've been having my students do this exact same thing.
