That's sort of where I was going with it Raymond.  To me, Tater rhythm, is
the rhythm beyond a bluegrass chop.  It's sort of a melodic rhythm, based on
various and creative chord voicings that ring and follow the lead.  The
stringband stuff from the Hartford days, or the rhythm on Tanyards (Stomp
cd).  That's what I've got in my ear.
