A very innovative player and also an acolyte of Roy Haynes. He also played a lot with Steve Swallow and Larry Coryell. In his book one of the things he addresses is resolution points in the phrases and how to stagger them with the drums to make the tune seamless.Many other things also in the book which is not that big. Only 47 pages actually. I'm looking at my copy. He also played drums for Jack DeJohnette when Jack had a group out playing piano and keyboards. I used to use parts of his book when I was teaching drums. The book is aimed more at actual playing than at patterns. I used my copy so much that I finally scanned it to disk and stored my hard copy to save it from wear and tear, so that I could print out stuff for teaching. I tried to reach Bob to get permission to do what I did, but he seems to have basically dropped off the face of the Planet. I'm sure he's out there but he has never answered any of my email inquiries to him. I've seen him play many times and was always totally enthralled by his approach. Actually the fact that he is not really around recording today or if he is, his Music is not in any way mainstream, is a great loss to the Musical and drumming World. Absolutely a magnificent Musician and drummer. Edited by roger strange (Fri Jul 11 2008 10:35 PM) Post Extras
