PALM DRIVE ALLEN’S SOLO

CD-ROM & 28-29

Verse 2 [Bars 27-38] Allen opens his solo with some ear-grabbing syncopation. Syncopation means playing off the beat and using this concept adds sophistication. If you are more used to playing music styles that feature rhythms that fall mainly on the beat, this one may take some getting used to. Some of the faster lines are pretty slippery too, so take them slowly and steadily.
