An interesting hour-long concert from the early 1990s.
Mostly clean version of what I played in at the UDel Workshop last month
Hey everyone!
I've landed quite a few gigs this year, and the fact that they keep coming made me realize there's a lesson here for newish vibes players. When I joined VWS I wasn't brave enough to do what I am now, so I'm writing this for anyone who is like I was. Here's my timeline:
-Two years ago, I didn't play out much. The Albany jazz scene is small but it exists, I just didn't think I was "good enough" to hang. It seemed like an impenetrable wall I could only break through if I memorized 50 tunes, learned modes, altered chords, tritone subs, etc.
Dedicated to the great Charlie Haden
Hi,
this is my 4th song of my new studio project.
i had fun doing the audio but not the video...but i think it´s important.
Warning! This Video contains shocking images against animals, which happens everday all over the world. don´t close your eyes...don´t be to blind to see...stop eating meat !
for those of you who want to close your eyes i will also upload just the audio...

Ok let's move to another TOTM.
How about:
All the Things You Are
and
Prince Albert
Do you know about these tunes? Prince Albert is a contrafact of All the Things You Are. That is same chords but new melody.
Prince Albert is a great bebop tune and GREAT to play through all the keys.
So you're studying one set of chord changes, but two tunes.
So get ready for some fun lessons!
Hauke was is essen and i was lucky that he asked me to jam at my house. he´s a great guy and such a great great player already. we had fun and i switched on the cam for 2 tunes.
tony, we both agreed that this was just possible because you and your work made people meeting each other...thanks for that man!

For the fourth year in a row, I spent a week in Newark for the summer vibes workshop at the University of Delaware. You’d think I’d be sick of it by now, but with different teachers and participants each time there is always something new. Here are some highlights:
Another clip from Berklee Percussion Week concert with Billy, Mark and Steve. One of my favorite Jobim compositions.
