Is #4 in “Downbeats and Upbeats supposed to sound like a heartbeat?

If you haven’t done a lot of this already, I would also recommend listening to a lot of traditional vocal blues – Memphis Minnie, Robert Johnson, Big Joe Turner, Son House, Muddy, B.B., Bessie Smith, etc. While the jazz blues seems to leave the traditional 3 line, call and response pattern, it’s still there boiling underneath it all.

Thanks Richie,

I understand. That’s what I was looking for. I will follow the workbook and only use the video as an example of how the workbook exercises should be performed.

Thanks,
