Does anybody have any leads on a used frame for an Musser M55? I have a set of bars and resonators. Just need the frame.

Let me know if you have any options.

Keep you all posted when it is released!

You guys are both great friends of mine and great supporters of the site. You both have many friends here!

So I hope you both have a very Happy Birthday!

Let's all wish John and Gary a Happy Birthday!

Hi to everybody coming to the workshop at Niko's in Sassenheim. I'm afraid my "suggestion" to prepare Coltrane's "Giant Steps" sounded a bit too harsh. I shouldn't have said "prepare" these two tunes, but rather check them out. I know "Giant Steps" is a killer and many people feel their not up to it yet. But, hey,no stress. NOBODY is comparing or giving a test. I just thought it might be fun to take this "boogy man" of a jazz tune and demystify him a bit.

Hello,

I would like to ask the participants to prepare the following two tunes, which I want to concentrate on in depth. In terms of voicings, please prepare "Darn That Dream" in G major.
For lines and linear improvisation, please prepare "Giant Steps".

Thanks. Looking forward to seeing you all on the 18th in Sassenheim!
