Hi Richard,
Because I was so in love with Ashley Khan's amazing book on the making 
of "Kind of Blue'.......perhaps the best book I've read on music,
I heard about Russels' concepts but , good god,  that book is really 
expensive and I haven't popped for it yet.

I was in a music theory tribe at tribe.net and there was a long 
discussion about it and one of the musical theoreticians broke down
the concept for us.  I'll have to go look that up.
