I'm digging the idea of making a vibe collective book. I posted something in reply to barry's Ktude (i love it).
The ultimate book for vibe players. A book where we all contribute, or rather whoever would want to contribute. You know if…
My great and dear friend and phenomenal violinist Diane Monroe never ceases to amaze me with her wisdom. At a workshop yesterday she said something that I thought was pretty profound.
We were playing in front of a bunch of really talented…
I have been away for a few days, came back to the workshop and watched the Branford Marsalis video and it still moves me. I read through all the posts and had the feeling that it is time to open up a new thread as too many topics are…
Here is "My Romance" melody in 12 keys.
This tune, as Todd mentioned, is relatively easy since all of the notes in the melody are in the key in which it is played. Knowing that really helped me learn this. Also as Todd pointed out, the…
Here's a great video from a new site we'll be launching very soon. It's over at www.worlddrum.studymusiconline.com. Todd Isler is the instructor, he's a great percussionist and drummer.
He has a book out in our store called 'You Can Ta Ka…
I got a CD recently- "Swing Valses d'hier et d'ayjord'hui" by a manouche guitarist named Baro Ferret, recorded in France in 1966. All 12 tracks are manouche waltzes!
Geo Dali played vibes- pretty nice sounding stuff! I heard a lot of…
It's funny who you meet online! I met a person on youtube (Holyhell937)(Does this mean there are another 936 people who have used Holyhell as their youtube name???). He seems to be in high school, or junior high. I dug our brief dialogue…
Help me name tunes or parts of tunes that are Dorian in sound.
Ha ha, I got the first one. 'So What'.
Oh, here's another. The first to chords of Recordame.
Add on to this list please!
This morning I was reading through Steve Kahn's analysis of a Michael Becker solo and became so ill from anxiety that I almost lost my cookies.
Do I have enough time to learn such a vast subject matter?
It's scary to think that even…

I was supposed to be practicing, but was fooling around instead, and came up with this little pattern. I decided to make an Etude out of it. There is some rhythm permutations (is that the word?), inspired by Behn's VW Etude No. 1, and…
this is not vibes related but more for drummers on the site. I am in the process of restoring an old Premier shell set 12x8 16x16 20x14 which I acquired at no cost. They had a white covering on them which I managed to remove without…
