Listen "Symmetry 08: Dominant Chains"
Episode Synopsis
Here the traffic circle idea explodes into an infinite pathway concept. I reference a 1945 recording by Don Byas and Slam Stewart that can be found here. Go to 1:48 to hear the thing I'm talking about. Also, attached to this post is a page from my book that diagrams out the pathways. I've only talked so far about the top half of this diagram (not the minor stuff). This one thing could be practiced for many years without being mastered (trust me, I've tried!). So if you have questions, please ask and I'll try to respond in future posts.
