What a find Judy! Big thanks, that was fascinating. This is why I love to play my own rhythm as a one man band. Altering the timing during a song is one of the most important ways I feel music.
I was reminded of how my vocal teacher used to listen to how I was playing at such a higher level of discrimination than I have myself. We are going to learn a lot about our humanity from these musical studies. That is inspiring.
