Vibraphone

This is a video of the Charlie Kunz band featuring Teddy Brown. It's cool to watch just to see teddy. 

But go to 10:22 and watch the vibe player. He dampens with his finger. Why? I think because there was not pedal on the vibraphone. 

That blew me away. Am I right? 

Hey all,

The lesson offer is still on but with a small change; complete any two etudes from the blues or rhythm changes etudes I've posted and I will do a free 30 minute lesson. So if you want to do one of the blues etudes and one of the rhythm changes, you can get the lesson. Must be a decent version of each though :)

Hope to see some posts!

This was great and fun. I played Terry's big band charts with his LA Dream Band. What incredible musicians! 

I did practice playing these tunes every day for a month. LA cats are great readers and great players, so I had to really practice! 

This was a great gig. On this video I am playing his tunes with his son on drums. Tom Rainer on Clarinet and Bill Cullen on piano. 

Check out this vw video. I think it's one of David's students. He would have all his students write etudes. Good idea.

Who wants to try writing an etude?

That's the name of the album :-)! 

I posted the album cover when I bought the album. I've been listening to him again. Another west coast cat. And man he plays great! IMHO

Man I think he's a great vibe player. Don't know much about him. What do you guys think? 

Hi folks,

Just wanted to shoot a quick message to announce that there is another opportunity for a free lesson with me (Behn). Tristan won the first round by posting two of the blues etudes. Anyone else who posts a good version of two of the etudes can also receive a free 30 minute lesson. Hope to see some more posts of the etudes!

Post them on this thread; https://vibesworkshop.com/video-upload/etudes-month-behn-gilleces-blues…

A great tune by one of my favourite composers and player Horace Silver, took me a few weeks to get this to an acceptable level. Hope you like it , working on a solo..
