Motivic Playing: Practicing today at Berklee on "All Of Me" with a focus on motives. More or less changing motives every eight measures. Motivic Playing is a chapter in The Complete Guide To Improvisation Volume Two.
A dyslexic pianist and a vibraphonist with dementia go to a jam session. The pianist calls " Heaven Steps to Seven". The vibist says, " I don't know that one ". The pianist says, "Don't worry, it's easy to marimba!"

I'm Your Pal by Steve Swallow Vibe Solo by David Kovins
In Portuguese its Na Ilha De Lia, No Barco De Rosa. A beautiful composition by Edu Lobo from the most recent Phil Degreg and Brasilia album. We had a lot of fun recording this...such a beautiful melody.
