Alan from England is at the workshop in Ireland this year. He had on him an original unplayed 75 of Milt Jackson's First record ever as a leader.
I love first takes. I love the energy when everything is new. Mike Pinto came over and visited me in The Laboratory and met my gongs. He played brilliantly. I had a total blast.
Anyway, the mics were a little too hot, so it distorts a bit... my parrot was chirping from the other side of the house... all of that. But it was a serious first take. Mike and I didn't talk about what we were going to do; We just started playing and this is what got recorded. This is full-on improvisation.
I hope everyone enjoys it. I sure did.
Peace

Come check out the vibe hang Wednesday night. It will be the culmination of the 4 day workshop in Limerick. So hopefully all the cats will stick around and play. We'll have a rhythm section there as well as (I hope) a special guest. A local vibe player who plays great. He's also lending us his vibes for the week!

Here's Behn performing his first etude for the site.
Below is a link to the etude.
Ok, if you still have a video problem, then clear your cache. I still had a problem after Travis (our computer tech) said it was fixed and Travis said to clear my cache and all worked.
Travis is a GREAT guy and really knows his stuff. So I'm grateful for his help.
Thanks for the subscribers who support the site, you helped us fix the problem!
Now we're going to do a major update on the site. That's the next huge project.
