Chinese Translation for Chinese students
選幾個和弦，play in time, 簡單的小練習，，可以練習很多東西，練習抓到groove and feel。
比如選一系列Fminor的和弦：
Root, 7th, 3rd, 5th 平行上行。
試著維持這樣的音程關係。
F, Eb, Ab, C
G, F, Bb, D
Ab, F, C, Eb
Bb, G, D, F
C, Ab, Eb, F
D, Bb, F, G
……….
可以只loop前四個和弦，然後play a groove in time(選一個節奏型態，定速演奏)，甚至演奏一些簡單的solo, 維持bass音。
＊play a groove in time(選一個節奏型態，定速演奏)時，就算有一點miss掉音，也還是保持節奏感。
也可以只演奏bass音（一路上行），然後solo。

John Keene sent me a recording of Monty Stark and John Abercrombie I posted it.

Here's an interview I found. I like this guy, didn't know anything about him. He seems cool, John Keene says he was.

Check out this interview of him:

I'm trying to find Monty Stark CDs.

kind of dated.

Thanks to John Keene for sending.

Anyone know of any other CDs Abercrombie was on that had a Vibe player on it?

Hi Everyone,
I'm happy to be ahead of the curve this month! I can let all of you know what to listen for in the next Good Vibes earlier than last time.

The fellow in this video has created several very effective modifications to get rid of pedal and damper noise on the Musser M55. He goes into a lot of detail. Well worth checking out.

I'm conflicted right now, what should I do about my vibraphone part?

@mikebalter Every time I'm feeling sad, I will play the vibraphone with my Tony Miceli 46R mallets to cheer myself up.. #MBMTweets pic.twitter.com/UfSSXK6YCL

I think we have a picture of Paul Mcartney playing the vibes. Now here's Brian Jones!

And here's a video:

任何兩個小調和弦。比如A minor, B minor
可以打開節拍器，自創一些loop，這樣可以練習你的time（節奏感）。
找不同的Voicing，play in time。
練習“time”、”旋律”、“voicing”、“3,7音”、”Groove”
你可以從這個簡單的小練習，
學到很多。

I got the idea to do a series called "a Little Bit Goes a Long Way".

There are some simple things that I learned that really branched out into many other things. Kind of like launch pads for so many other things.

I would argue that just about everything we learn can go a long way. But there are special things that really do.

I remember playing a simple progression Amin7 and Bmin7 and then coming up with all these ideas just using those 2 chords.

Do you guys have any simple things you practiced that went far in learning to play the vibes??
