How do they get that long-short feeling then? Or are my ears deceiving me and all those recordings I've heard of all the big bands are really playing even 8th-notes?
You tell me -- go check out how Basie's band actually plays the continuous eighth notes on the 1938 "Jumpin' at the Woodside" and report back.
I could have sworn there was a difference between Basie and Bach, but then all those experimental drugs back at the Home might have muddied my thinking.
The difference is in the articulation, not the note durations.
