Saw this on Facebook via Joe Locke. Seems like it'd be pretty interesting to all of us :-).

Any europeans want to buy a MalletKat? I might be in Germany June 1st. I'll have the newest MalletKat with the newest sound card in it. No malletKat has this sound card yet.
Email me at tonymiceli@gmail.com if you're interested.

Hi folks,
Just saw this video, and was wondering if perhaps Adrian Rollini was the first documented 4-mallet vibist? I was surprised by his technique. He was a multi-instrumentalist who also played sax, but I can't think of anyone else playing 4 mallets like this as far back as the '30s and '40s.
Obviously, they are playing along with a pre-recorded track. But you gotta love the tubular bells solo!!
*** (ps. OOPS - saw that this clip was posted last year, must have missed that!!)
Hey guys, spoke with M-N today about what's been taking up my time. Between Berklee, teaching at home and gigs, writing books has been keeping me busy. The improv book is finished and came out to 21 chapters spread out over 4 volumes. We're almost ready for the production of Volume 1. I'm here today at the house tweaking a few chapters. It seems like this project has been going on forever. Here's the breakdown of topics:
Chord Scale Theory
Chord Scale Application and Practices
Harmonic Practices
Chord Tone Soloing
Tension Resolution
Upper Structure Triads
Triad Pairs
Thanks John Daly for sending me this!
This won't stay up long i bet, so enjoy it for now!
I've heard about this young player yesterday. He's from Martinique, and lives in the same town as me, Montpellier ! Won the first price of "Conservatoire de Perpignan" (nearby French town).
Enjoy !
Oh man! I found this old vid with my friend Norbert on vibes. This is one of his tunes, though the vid focuses more here on the incredible flutist "Magic Malik". The band's name was "Groove Gang"... Not too wrong huh? Enjoy!
