Thread Name: does a lifted foot mean Stop?
Subject: RE: does a lifted foot mean Stop?
Is there a jazz equivalent to indicate the end of solos and back to the theme? Seems to me Krupa used a cowbell, though it might have been merely a coincidence (and he'd have been cued I presume by the bandleader). Raised feet and 'hup's' are common enough here on the Left Coast in all the sessions I've seen (but I'm not a player so don't know).
