Brush Artistry by Philly Joe Jones

[weckl-x]

A great book from one of the old greats, been out of print for over 30 years, I recently came across scans of this book by a member of cymbalholic, LuvmyLeedy. I'll share the link here.

"The volume, aggressiveness, and explosiveness of Jones' playing and the subtlety of his cross-rhythms helped to expand the role of the drums in jazz. A superb timekeeper, he was known especially for his technique with brushes, as well as his cymbal playing and his carefully structured solos."
