RED NORVO 1908-1999

Here's another etude based on the chords from the tune 'All the Things You Are'. First chorus are chords with alterations, 2nd and 3rd are single line improv.

I have the pdf, and a track with only bass and drums. The drums are just a loop I threw in. If people don't dig the drums, I'll make a track with just bass.

Yes Tony, excellent idea, we all wonder here...

But who is Harry Sheppard?

Some late night thoughs about practicing, and time and not time.

More Dampening! Feel free to post questions for Mario from Alternate Mode

Check out the Dampening on the Mallet Kat.

I'm sure someone out there has done some research on classic vibraphones, maybe even with some pictures. I kind of know the basic history of the instrument (actually Wikipedia has a surprisingly thorough vibraphone history...I would love to know who posted it). But, in particular, there are some legendary vibraphone designs that I have always been curious about. One was known as the Deagan Imperial. Milt Jackson played the Imperial for many years, the first half of his career.
