In another thread (see "Check This Out", above), there was discussion about mallet wraps. I wanted to create a separate thread for this discussion.
Here is a site that sells mallet wrap.

Hey everybody!
I got this link from my super harpist technician buddy from myspace George Flores.
Maybe some of you already saw this?
It's not vibraphone, but wow, it's good good vibes! :o)
Enjoy and keep it up!

P.S.: I like the funny French accent of the first guitarist! Haha!... And every single musician is such a great symbol! Beautiful!
Hi Philippe!
Almost the only thing I know about Wolfgang Schlüter is a record (LP) I have - it is called Houseboat released 1978 under MPS (0068.206; MPS 15.535). As far as I know this LP was never released as CD.
I briefly checked Youtube but with no result for Wolfgang Schlüter.
Here are some links to websites giving some info on WS: - sorry but all German language.
Vibes are booming in France as anywhere else in the world. Classically educated guys like Frank Tortiller are establishing new standards. I really dig this. Do you ?
Here are my two practice versions of Vince Guaraldi etude by TM.
The first one is a normal playing version, and the second one is an attempt to use the 2 hands separately.
I don't play the head entirely, I start improvising over the chords quite fast...
This is where I am today with this tune that I really enjoy playing... go ahead, tell me what you see/hear...I'm here to make pogress

that's our next vibe hang. you should play something. work up a short version of green dolphin or whatever!
what do you think. you'll have to get set on mogulus and we could try a demo run.
let me know if your'e intersted.
Anybody know who he is? What's his deal?
Check out Red's 4 Mallet technique. Really different. He also does a neat effect on the second chorus of his solo.
