  • I've been to some of the top salsa clubs in San Juan, and Ryan Larson could definitely teach some of the guys there to generate real rhythm. Does he have any CDs?

  • His technique is astounding! Jeff Hamilton would be proud.

  • @RadioJack Simply I'd say, in the modern western 12-note chromatic scale, there are 30 main keys (though some of these are enharmonic equivalents so you could consider there to be 24).
