Good Vibes Radio Update June '15

Time

Hi All,
June is shaping up with two new (to me) vibes players, Phil Kraus and Mitch Shiner. I'll open with Christian Tamburr who I met recently at the memorial ceremony for Bob Masteller. Christian flew in from Las Vegas to be there. I really enjoyed seeing, hearing and meeting him. The occasion was a fantastic celebration for the life of Masteller, owner of the Jazz Corner in Hilton Head. Non-stop musicians and music all afternoon from some of the very best.

Behn Gillece debut album, "Mindset," to be released May 15th.

Hi everyone,

My debut album as leader, "Mindset", is coming out May 15th. I'm really excited about the recording. The album consists of my originals that I've been playing on gigs for awhile now. If you're interested, check out the title track here. I also have other samples on my website, www.behngillecejazz.com You can also buy an advance copy from there if you'd like!

I'll be posting some info on my CD release gigs soon as well. Thanks!

Exciting New Solo Vibraphone Literature from Christos

I just wanted to post a congrats to Christos (Rafalides) for releasing his new suite for solo vibraphone, Reaching For Sindhu. I've had a chance to listen to the piece and check out the sheet music... and it's a really great piece of music! Here are the links to both the video (where Christos explains various elements and performs the piece), and also his website where the music is available, in both digital and hard copy formats. Check it!

Send-off for Bob Masteller, The Jazz Corner Pres. & CEO

Everyone,
A New Orleans style jazz send-off for Bob Masteller is planned for April 10 at the Honey Horn Plantation, Hilton Head Island, following church services that morning. Musicians are coming from around the country to perform and pay their final respects to a truly inspirational human being. A memorial fund has been set up at website www.thejazzcorner.com. Proceeds will benefit Bob's beloved Junior Jazz Foundation, a non-profit organization which fosters jazz education among young people.

Good Vibes Radio March '15 Update

Time

Hi All,
Looks like I haven't posted about the last two months' shows but I am back. March welcomes Ted Piltzecker and Larry Lawless to Good Vibes. In honor of the Third World Vibes Congress, I've included Tony and Anthony from their CD California, Here I Come, Ted from Unicycle Man, and Larry Lawless from Jazz Behind Bars. This last is from a CD I discovered on the table from Steve Weiss Music. I'll play a tune by Steve Pouchie, "Tunisia By Day," one from Behn's new CD Light at the Point, and more. Tune in!
