With Bloque 53 playing Strangers in Paradise near Barcelona, last friday.

Looking forward to working with you all on this forum again: reminds me back to the old glory days of the vibe.net
Indeed Tony has been pushing me a lot to do this. Not that I never wanted to, but just didn't find the right moment to start.

Feel free to ask whatever, but do realize that I cannot answer everything, e.g. don'ask for an opinion on brands, etc.

Topics could be like:
- My F5 sounds dead, what do I do about it?
- How come, you're building vibes?
- My wheels fall out of my vibe, what to do?

etc.

does anybody know somebody in india who plays vibraphon, marimba,percussion etc. or somebody who rents instruments there?

Hello guys, here's another clip from the Berklee recital Joe and I played. This is a clip of us playing the Beatle's Blackbird. We played it with an AAB form. Joe came up with a lead sheet that includes some specific rhythmic chord hits. Joe's changes at the bridge include some subtle reharm variations. Check out Joe's solo. A beautiful example of a melodic solo that builds in intensity. Instead of playing over the form, we each played over a specific chord progression as shown on the lead sheet. Hope you enjoy it.

Hi all,

Here is a lesson that explains some ideas for soloing over the blues. Enjoy!

Inspired by Marcel Pascual's beautiful arrangement of "I Remember You", I decided to learn it.
Somehow, it turned into a stride arrangement.

Hi Toni,

Any suggestions on which is the best way to move a MUSSER M55 on a plane ?

Thanks.

I've pulled this 1988 CD out of the stacks in honor of this month's TOTM. It's a mix of standards and blues. Very nice listening! It has Hamp's version of "Someday My Prince Will Come", the TOTM we worked on in July. And best of all, there are about 33 copies available on Amazon, many being sold for as low as 35 cents plus postage. That's a deal and a steal!
