Re: semi-quavers over 6/8 clave
It's a transcribed solo. However, as I'm trying to improve my solo ability while maintaining a left foot clave, I make a point of learning everything with the relevent left-foot clave. As this...

Re: semi-quavers over 6/8 clave
Thanks Numberless. However, I working with the "other" 6/8 clave, see my first post for how it's phrased as triplets.
This has inspired me to try and work it out as 16ths though.

Who owns the rights to the Wilcoxon solos?
I'm hoping to do a recording of some classic snare drum solos, with the intent to sell. I understand in most cases that these solos will be public domain, but Wilcoxon only dies 35 years ago.

semi-quavers over 6/8 clave
I'm having a little trouble with this. Basically, I'm learning a jazz solo; it is swung, so 8th notes are swung, but it uses a lot of 16ths and 16th-triplets. That's all fine. The problem is, my left...
