Pithecanthropus Erectus (Mingus' Explanation, Restart)

Okay
He's rolling
He's rolling
Okay
Let me ask you to do the other one
Let's go
Everybody's solo...
I'm gonna start in the middle of the solos
And bo- don't make no plays
It don't go in the song
Just a bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop
Just because you're doing the quarter, the quarter notes
He's...
Is he rolling?
One, two
One, two
Good
Ready?
And this is...
Because you're making half notes, you know, tied whole notes
That's why I'm letting him do it over again, so I can get it right
As you, as, uh, the time increases then you
Get closer together, and it becomes half notes
There's no tempo so you don't have to worry about losing the beat
Stop
Are we still rolling?
Yeah
