Hi John,
The Howard Roberts books which I've seen are fair - nothing earth shattering
The Quadrophonic Fingering book I own, and haven't seen much value to
it. Maybe I should give it another look - we'll 'C'.
The other books I'm not familiar with. Perhaps they were written by
friends of his.

At any rate, whether good or not, there is no way anyone is going to get
through those books in any meaningful way in 20 weeks.

best,
Bobby

Bobby,

Some of these books are repetitive -- how many books and times we see the same material either explained or defined differently.
