seems alright, I would've liked it more if you had gone into Samba's and had perhaps mentioned the different clave's, maybe the cascara....

But for what's there, it seems fairly solid...

I really think knowing about the clave at least is very important to latin playing, so I think that probably should've been in there....

Nice.

indeed, where's the clave. And the mambo I know is very different to the one you have written.

[I<3DoubleBass]

Well, For lack of a clave, I use hi-hats, i may purchase a jamblock with a pedal for further latin playing but most people dont have a clave i believe? if not correct me :P

[styler]

isnt there something called a clave in notation? or is that a clavo or something like that im thinking of.

[I<3DoubleBass]

well there is a clave rythym, but it's played by the clave, i tried to incorporate it on the kit by using the hats instead of the clave

Wrong synonym.

Clave(1) - Basic latin rhythm. I believe it roughly translates to the word 'key'. There are 6 different clave rhythms.

Clave(2) - Wooden sticks struck together to play a clave rhythm.

i kinda explained that in the last post =)
