Phil Maturano here!

Phil,

Is there a phonetic type of reproduction akin to South Indian konnakol in the Afro- Cuban world? And if so can you describe it and tell us where to learn more about it? I am ashamed to say, I still ahven't picked it up; but it is in my wish list.

thanks,

Ken

Phil, man... I friggin hate you for that groove you've played today on the last song we've played. Check out Cliffs thread, I've just written to both of you guys in there.

Guys: Phil KICKS ASS!!! Whoaaaaaa....... Its friggin un-be-liev-able. It'll take me months to figure out why on earth it sounds so much better when you play the same notes that I play. Thats exactly the kind of nasty shit I was hoping for.

Greetings from all the other guys - they loved you. Its incredible that 3 hours of working can make such a huge difference.

Don't forget to send me some listening advice in all these styles (Kumbia or however you write that, HighLife, Samba...)
