Hello guys, here's another clip from the Berklee recital Joe and I played. This is a clip of us playing the Beatle's Blackbird. We played it with an AAB form. Joe came up with a lead sheet that includes some specific rhythmic chord hits.…
A clip of Joe and I playing the standard (1931) Wrap Your Troubles in Dreams. A fun tune to play stride and 4 beats to bar time feel as in Freddie Green w/Basie, Dave McKenna, Errol Garner, George Shearing, etc. These changes are what…
This is the first of 3 improvisation, which were conducted in a Melbourne city park in the rotunda at midnight in the midst of a ferocious summer storm.
It is the first of many different improvisations i have recorded in different…
Looking forward to working with you all on this forum again: reminds me back to the old glory days of the vibe.net
Indeed Tony has been pushing me a lot to do this. Not that I never wanted to, but just didn't find the right moment to start…
I had a great talk with Ed via email. We talked about whether the vibraphone was on it's last leg or not.
I won't go into our conversation yet, because I'd like to hear what you guys have to say first.
I waited for New Years day to post…
Just to wish all you vibers who are Irish or half Irish or who think or wish they were Irish a Happy St Patricks Day to you all, keep vibing. "Slainte Go Beo"
Go raibh do ghloine lán go deo.

Hi Vibes Lovers!
Sometimes when I'm looking for vibes albums I find that, altough the instrument is not very popular, or perhaps because of it, the vibraphone has especial atractive for the cover image. Bars, mallets, ressonators, frame,…
I've pulled this 1988 CD out of the stacks in honor of this month's TOTM. It's a mix of standards and blues. Very nice listening! It has Hamp's version of "Someday My Prince Will Come", the TOTM we worked on in July. And best of all, there…
Hope this is the appropriate place to post. I'm looking for a vibes player to add to a small jazz ensemble in northern Wisconsin. Probably from Stevens Point or north of there. I'm based in Vilas county but most gigs are from Wausau and…
Here a beautiful ballad played with a marvellous group behind him. If you go on YouTube with that video there is the whole concert (all the tunes are of an incredible level). Quality sound and video, the guitar player is a blast too, and…
sooo... like many folks on the east coast of the US, I spent the night awake wrestling with water that was determined to enter my house. Good news. I won. Through the night, people with dark senses of humor kept playing this song, so it…
Check out the audio clip I have attached this article. I think sometimes students don't get it, that is how to really study something. How a little snip it can be so valuable. I spend 2.5 hours on this snippet tonight. First I love it! It'…
My MalletKat came back on Wednesday with the KS v7 upgrade.
I am now officially a super MalletKat Fan.
Having the internal sounds really helps very much.
Especially these PC3 sounds.
A few things I want to mention.
1. I still have to get…
This year Gary Burton - Joe Locke - Warren Wolf are all playing at the festival, woo-hoo!! I'm hoping to meet them. I met Joe the last time he was here with his Milt Tribute band. Joe took time after his set to chat with me for a few…
Hey Vibes workshop,
Its been a month since the delaware workshop, ive learned alot, and when i practiced my 4 hours in my practice room i would work hard to memorize these tunes. Its a month later and now,the chord changes of…
Hey everyone, To reaffirm my belief in the value of composing alternate melodies, I'd like to offer up a Free CD of mine to the first two people to post an alternate melody to any of the Tunes of the Month that we have gone over on the…
Hello guys, Tony graciously posted Joe and I playing Stella By Starlight (which was the last tune of the concert). If anyone is interested in checking out more of the concert, all of the clips are now up on my YouTube channel. Gustavo shot…
