Hi!
Dave Samuel's Book "Contemporary Vibraphone technique" has some nice etudes and here is one called Etude#3D I have been practicing for quite a while.
Here is my recording, maybe someone else has played this too?
Cheers Stefan
Just a very very Quick (and Dirty) video about Getting Your Groove On. In otherwords setting up a groove and soling over it.
here's mine.
Check out this link. This is a cool instrument. I played one in Germany. Ed Mann is Frank Zappa's mallet player from back in the 70's and 80's! He's selling the vibes.
After watching Hamp and Benny Goodman, I can’t resist sharing that link I incredibly dig! It’s from the same period, an extract from Singing in the Rain… Surely most of you have seen it already. You may like to past the first minute, but the rest is incredible!
It has the same kind of thrill, blowing away talent, and swing (even if with big band this time). It’s not vibraphone, but so much good vibes!!! And man those giant dancers are unbelievable percussionists with their feet!! Aren't they?
Great drum battle with the King of the Vibes.
Great tom tom work here!
