Like Someone In Love - vibes-Ed & bass-Mark

I just watched a fantastic version of Tony playing this tune solo. There's also a beautiful version of David and Tony playing duo on this tune. Some players play this tune in C, but here we are in Eb. Bill Evans plays it in D and Ab (half chorus in each key). It's nice do this transposing thing with Wine and Roses ala Bill Evans (F and Ab, half a chorus in each key). This is a fun tune to play on with nice changes. There's a nice solo transcription of Jerry Bergonzi playing this tune that can be found on the web.

How Deep Is The Ocean - Vibes/Bass Duo - Ed Saindon & Mark Carlsen

Here's a version of my good friend Mark Carlsen on bass and I playing Irving Berlin's How Deep Is The Ocean. This is a great tune to play. Some of my favorite versions would be Chick Corea's (a somewhat reharmonized version titled Now He Beats The Drum) on the album Now He Sings, Now He Sobs. Of course, Bill Evans' version on the Exploration album from 1961 with Scott LaFaro and Paul Motian, and Keith Jarrett's version (with Gary Peacock and Jack DeJohnette) from his week at the Blue Note in 1994.
