Hi vibe friends,

Here's a version of Scrapple vibists might not be familiar with. I think Jim really shows how far you can stretch these bebop tunes. This record also more or less changed jazz guitar playing forever.

hi all,

here's a tune i worked on awhile back and wanted to know what you guys think. Wish I built the solo more and brought the band down, though.

You will learn about vibe players here!

Scrapple is cool tune mainly because it's a variation of rhythm changes. Instead of I VI II V for the first 4 bars, it's ii V and then the rest of rhythm changes.

Here are my assignments.

1. 2 line studies and two chord studies. Do one of each (you pick).
2. Play the melody in at least 2 keys (it's a great ii V study!) Fill in the chords on the studies.
3. Play the tune solo, take a chorus, comp for a chorus and then take the tune out.
