More Minutes 29 - Philly Joe Jones

Few jazz drummers have contributed more to the essential jazz vocabulary than Philly Joe Jones. This More Minutes lesson explores the way Philly Joe used comping and short fills to mark new phrases in the music. You'll learn 4 phrase-ending fills along with the comping that leads into them, transcribed from "Blues for Philly Joe" off Sonny Rollins' Newk's Time record (recorded in 1957 and released in 1959).
