Swing

( Don’t know where to put this ) ...Everything has a swing to it. While waiting for something to come to me to type, my thumbs tapped the basic rhythm of the tune BRASIL on the side of the space bar of this aforementioned dusty keyboard (everything is dusty here). Everything has a swing to it. My 43 years have seen many musical styles. What a great life it has been so far. Everything has a swing to it. Now my teeth are chattering together to BRASIL. How lucky I am to be sensitive to rhythm. How lucky I am to have made it 43 years. Every sound and person and leaf and galaxy and ant and cobweb has a swing to it. |

Ah, but technically Latin is played ‘straight’ |

Yes, but consider the happy eyes and the bright smile of the congero or timbalero when he plays his drums not to mention the basic tumbao of the bass and the hummingbird who visited for the first time today. Drama, Vibration, Life. |
