Listen to the masters! Bobby and Joe do some great stair climbing patterns here!
Hi All,
I've done a webapp for the iPhone that shows the videos that have been posted here. Point Safari at http://vibes.phelan-4.com/roku/iphone.php to view it.
This gives us four ways now to see the videos on the site (as of this morning, that's 830 videos!):
Went to a Stefon Harris Masterclass at Temple University tonight. Stefon is a very inspiring cat! I love his playing and his vibe. He has a lot of soul. I admire guys who might think with their head but they play with their heart, and that's Stefon.
He talked about Melodic and Harmonic Tonics. Who knows what they are?
I never used these words but have done things along these lines. However Stefon gave me a lot more ideas and a new to think about this.
Before I go into it, what do you guys know about it?
I am working on You Stepped Out of a Dream. Listening to Nat King Cole, and Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 versions. I don't have the lead sheet so I figured most of it out. Still working on the B section.
Here is a duet with one of Tony's play-alongs (See Check this out).
Still work-in-progress.

French piece, duet. Vibes/Vocals
I'm big on getting my time together. I have very little of it now and I must use it wisely. I need to practice 2 hours a day minimum, or I'd rather donate my body to science and spare a few bunnies what they have to go through. I can't stand when I don't practice.
I'm always checking out productivity business cats and learning from them. I also frequent the site Life Hacker. There are MANY great tips on there. This latest is a good one I think.
I know everyone is going to say play it slower and I do when practicing.
But this is about where I'd like it to be. It may be a few clicks to fast ....hmmm.... not sure yet. This is 158 BPM.
Figuring out solo vibes stuff is really challenging and fun!!!!
Anyway I had to post because we are moving on to Blue Bossa.
Be kind :)
