Speechless...

Giving it away to the first subscriber who posts a chord melody version of the tune, 'What's New'.

The first one who posts it here, gets the Aebersold book title 'What's New'.

Here's a link to the book:

Thanks to toddc for donating a bunch of Aebersold books to give away.

My buddy Jim Miller Lived out in the Midwest. His gig (years ago) was to set up in a club, wait for someone to put money in the juke box and then play drums along with the record that was playing. That freaked me out.

So check out this video of this cat playing along with tracks, rap and pop with ?marching drums????? Seems really strange and not something I'd ever want to do.

Could you guys do a gig like this?

You know I feel like you guys are an extension of my brain. I know some of you get that and that you would agree with me about your own brain. All this discussion and opinions about stuff stays with me! I've learned so much about duo playing from just hanging out with you guys and talking here.

My project with Diane Monroe is fueled by this site and all of you! We are working hard to get a duo group together and to work out the kinks. There are so many things that become apparent when you are baseless and drumless!

Here is another great lesson by Hal Galper on Vocabulary!

MikeK added a link to this lesson. But it is really great so I thought I'd add it as an embedded video!

Hello Vibesworkshop,

This is a solo version of Just Friends. I tried to make the chords or just the bass ring and play over it..

After listening to it again I figured out I've mistaken on the A and A' part... it's supposed to be A A' A A' etc.. but it seems I was a bit lost sometimes and did A twice... well :)

Please give your feedback ! I'd appreciate.

This aria was the entrance piece for my wedding (the original one I mean)...

That was 12 years. Today I listen to this video, and everything is suddenly emerging from deep inside: my satin dress, the veil on my face, my father's arm, our steps on the central lane of the church, full of people who had seen me running there as a little girl, and behind us my very impressed Bruno at the arm of his mother...

Jeez... I had never seen it that clear before Bobby sang it back 'to me'... this man must be an angel...
