Vibraphone

Kind of makes learning tunes a lot simpler doesn't it?

Oh man... I got this from Joe Locatelli on Face Book... I missed this program early September... though the gig is from 2007... Remember, that same gig when they did "Old Folks".

Enjoy!

PS: I love Bobby's look when listening, the "duet tribute", and those beautiful solos: what a gang!! :o) More soon I'm sure! ;-)

Here is something I would like to talk about and open up for discussion.

I think with every lesson and study that there is a hidden field that doesn't get talked about quite enough, and the hidden field is average time required for the lesson. We can pick a general number for this, that is the amount of time most musicians should put in for the required task or study.

What's great about this site is that a week can be a month or a year!!!

Check out this Parker lick. I thought it would be interesting for your guys to play it through the keys and learn from it. Very simple and to the point, but it weaves through the changes like Bach!

I won't tell you guys any more about it, why don't you figure stuff out and post it in the comments.

I'll give a free pair of my mallets to the first person who posts a record of them playing it without stopping and through all the keys.

Angelo J. Vaglio, 93 years of age and still going on the vibes..............!

01. Started learning to play mandolin at age four and went to one of the first music studios at age 17 to study the guitar, (3 months lessons @ 25 cents each & $1.00 a month to rent the guitar). after 3 months of intensive practice (no radios or TV's that time), the teacher said that I had to start taking advanced studies because I had completed the studio's beginner' program, and with no available cash, had to quit the program, but I continued to practice always.

This is swinging!

Check out this scale! Double click on the video if you want more information. This cat is playing another scale. Anyone know more about this? Not too cool to my ears.

Ok we need to pick the next tune.

who should pick it? Me? You guys? should we vote?

You want an easy tune like Blue Bossa? Just to see all the parts at work? Miss Jones? invitation?

the thing about You Stepped Out Of A Dream is we have a duet with me and Dave and tracks for some play along. It is a Tune guys play a lot but it's not on the top 20! But Maybe top 50 or 75.

Thoughts?

Hey any of you subscribers hand drummers also? If so email me if you would like access to our new hand drum site and I'll tell you what's up. Pretty cool stuff.
