@altosaxgeek6 The "solo" he's quoting is actually an old standby lick of Bird's. He uses it in several of his solos, and most any bebop player uses the lick as well.
I think the most famous example of it is in the more upbeat version of "Now's The Time" in the first chorus that Bird plays.

It's good to see Jeff in the education scene! He's done a great clinic available through the Yamaha Wind Instruments podcast too. And he said expound!!! 5 stars for being a badass.
