Question about a comping exercise (Jeremy Siskind's book)
Hello, I have a question about the comping exercise in Jeremy Siskind's book. The instructional video that comes with the book doesn’t show how to do this exercise, and I want to make sure I’m doing it right. If I understand correctly, since the melody has to be played at the same time as the left hand, I shouldn’t swing it, and I should land on the “and” of beat 2 for the hi-hat rhythm, for example. Is that right? Thanks.
