At long last, here’s that practice loop to go with all the stuff in 7 I’ve been posting of late. This is sampled from the tune Solitaire, from John Zorn’s album O’o, which you should own. Joey Baron is on drums, and has a pretty killing solo on this tune. If you rip an mp3 from the video, using one of those barely-legal web browser extensions, and move it to your mp3 player, the track will loop cleanly— you can play along with this all day, if you want.
