Great stuff. I hope you guys work hard on this and the following videos.

Ok, so we studied chords and harmony. I sure hope some of you guys got some stuff out of all that. There was a ton to learn and study!

So I figured before we had back to tunes we should officially study the other side of all this and that's the line... the solo, the melody.

I still believe that for all of us, the line should be first thing. The most important thing.

(Dizzy Gillespie/Chano Pozo)

Check out the killin' vibes solo !

This is a short etude I recently wrote aimed at improving my single hand dampening. Listen out for the continuous C5 under the moving harmonies..

Thought you guys might want to see this. pretty cool stuff.

Back home after a 3-hour trio gig (vibes, bass, drums). Man, I am exhausted!

Another tune of the same great concert that somebody posted a few days ago.
On this one each soloist takes a solo. Here's Gary's turn. Incredible !!
And here the first part of the tune with Thomas Clausen's (the pianist) solo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8r3DHBfJzAI&feature=related
