yes, I did have you mixed up with Severius. I figured his dumb ass which is too lazy to register was also to lazy to type in his full moniker. Please accept my sincerest apologies, I feel really bad.Where your view doesn't line up with reality is that vocalization is extraneous to the process. You are correct that some suppress this, but improvisation is vocal in nature - you play on a tune and you sing the improvisation you want - too often musicians don't stay honest to the line they would sing - they get influenced by the patterns they practice, etc. Vocalization is necessary - singing your line is the key to honest improvisation. Suppression is a good explanation for all great improvisers who don't, or can't due to the limitations of their instrument, vocalize.
Again, please accept my sincerest apologies. Email me - I'll send some KJ albums to make it up to you - I feel really bad, but that Severius guy has made me want to bi***-slap him REALLY hard.
