Review: 

I've always wanted to play music and have tried my hand at a few different instruments, but never had the patience. After reading A Matter of Time by John Lamb, I realized that somewhere deep down, I have the ability to create rhythm, I just need to invest more time. I liked that this book included several resources in the form of online videos. With that said, you need to access this book from a Kindle Fire or a computer for the the best results. However, once you've read this book I feel that you'll have a better understanding of music as the author is truly a professional in the fields of music, the human brain, and education.
