Here a live recording of a gig I played yesterday, using a play-along I do by myself (bass and guitar + rythm box). Far from perfect, but on this one I was able to use some dampening in my solo, little victory for me !

I've tried many mallet grips over the years, and for vibes Burton is my favorite...except for the fact that my mallets click together when I play with this grip. Somehow I'm getting better at making them click less as I play, but is there…

TOTM - Rhythm Changes - Oleo Exercises Pt. 1 by Tony Miceli
tonymiceli
Content type: Audio Player
今天要講的是oleo 首先第一個步驟就是要練好head（主旋律） 看似很簡單，但是其實蠻困難。 要不失去swing，並且對到節拍器，其實不容易。 這也可以是個很好的對節拍器warm up的小練習。 你的任務就是要開啟節拍器，試著練習好幾個星期，用不同的速度（tempo）練。 像是很快的速度其實難度很高，但是這個練習會對你很有幫助。

TOTM - Rhythm Changes - Oleo Exercises Pt. 5 - Going to Eb by Tony Miceli

Content type: Audio Player
這一集也是從rhythm changes 中拿一小段（第五和第六小節）出來練習。 Bbmajor7 - Bb7 - Ebmajor7 - Ebminor7 （bassline: Bb - Ab - G - Gb） 用這組和弦，速度放慢，即興看看，試著演奏出漂亮的旋律。 練好後，再放到rhythm change中，那兩個小節（第五和第六小節）你就能夠輕易掌握！ 如果妳去分析一些當代的樂團，會發現他們的東西也是舊的（一直以來都在被演奏的），…
