David,

Are you slapping the last two 45 notes of the 7th measure in the 5th chorus of Gary's Blues? I'm finding that sequence of 5 times (45) - after the pull 5+ 4 3 in the 6th measure - is coming out as a messy blur.

Thanks,

Kirsty

Hello Kirsty. I don't recommend it. I believe I used a KA articulation and would recommend you do the same.
