Africa for a State Dept. Tour, and with Polish and Czech musicians in Vienna, I agree with what Pres. Clinton says. On our African tour in 1968 we jammed with all kinds, but especially with Mulatu Asteke in Addis. Amazing what we learned. Of course, I still relish the lesson Herbie Hancock gave me on piano in 1964. I taught him physics, he taught me chord voicings. The voicings are more important.
