This was being passed around by singers, they loved it for the harmony between the voices. Andy Williams and Connie Francis. They ARE right, this is really well done and the singing is right on the money.

Now personally I don't see it as corny, to me it's really beautiful. I wonder if some of you will. But get past that if you feel that way, and listen to the harmony in the voices. I think we strive as vibe players to make inner lines that are beautiful and rich.

A robotic vibraphone!!

Sorry to re-surface this lesson but for some reason it was listed as "new" in my posts and when I checked on it the accompanying PDF was missing. Just thought I would fix it.

I always tell my students to transcribe Cliffords solo, especially the first 2 or 3 solos. It's a masterpiece!

I just got off the phone with Terry Gibbs and we had a GREAT talk. He's such a hip guy.

I thought I'd pass along a compliment. Terry said he loves the site and he especially loves all the knowledgeable vibe players on the site. He said he thought our discussions and comments were very intelligent.

I'd have to agree with that. A lot of you cats are pretty wise!!!

I ordered his book and am excited to read it and maybe discuss it here on the site!

On fire. This is so swinging I'm dying!! Check this out! What a team, Terry and Buddy.

A great video with Terry and Buddy. Check out Terry's solo! Smokin'!!!

Isn't Adrian the real first vibe player? Check this out. I wonder how old it is? And he's playing with 4 mallets and seems to be pretty good at it.

This is a great video!

Rafael Meinhart is a student of David Friedman's. He wanted to work on technical things and asked what he should practice. David said write your own studies. So Rafael did. Check this one out. It's great!

I just did a simple lesson on this and here's this cat taking it to the extreme.
