It’s worth mentioning that during live performance, Joe developed a stepped hi-hat pattern for the foot. Sometimes only the snare drum on the ‘+’ of beat 2 is accented and sometimes no snare drums at all are accented. Joe improvises with the pattern, adding and subtracting notes to accompany the music. Of course being Jazz, Joe changes this drum beat throughout the song. These two snare drum notes slide into beat 1 in a really satisfying manner. Look out for the rather tasty snare drum ghost notes on the second and third partial of the triplet in beat 4.
