How To Play Mongo's Afro Blue

I do apologize for the lengthy video, but I felt this background info was necessary.

Afro Blue by Mongo Santamaria is a classic song, plain and simple. And knowing that, I did this video with so much respect acknowledging that I am no where near worthy to demonstrate this pattern from such a great player... but so many people requested for me to attempt to teach it so I tried... Maybe failed, BUT I tried haha.

If you don't feel like listening to me talk and joke around a bit then skip to 5:29 where I begin the break down.
