Recording made with a basic ZOOM Q3 during a rehersal of our new duo. I'm discovering the sound of vibes with accordeon, and I dig it. It's the first time I have the opportunity of playing a Piazzolla tune. Lot of polishing needed, of…

Beiner Bags, Rock and Roller and M55 Babu asked for this. I can go anywhere. Up and down stairs, through tight spaces. I can park 6 blocks away. It's a great set up.
