Hey all!
This question is specifically targeted at Tony, but I figured I would post it here so that everyone can benefit.
My question is this....
When playing solo vibraphone and you want to play general harmony, then does it a good idea…
Here's "Triste" from my trio gig last Friday night with Mike Ball on bass and Jack Morash on drums. It's a little noisy -- I had the record levels too low and so I had to boost it. Sounds OK on earbuds but it seemed a little distorted on…
This free improve video is from a concert I did in October at UD with The Real Vocal String Quartet, a great group from the SF area. This was totally unrehearsed. I'll post some tunes I did with them later.
I love independence on the vibes. I like making things work that shouldn't work. A bass line is usually something I don't waste time on, however there's a trick here. It's an illusion. Once you set the bass line up you don't have to keep…
This is probably one of the most singurlarly challenging pieces of music on the planet. It's also a great piece. Ruth Underwood was the mallet player with Zappa and she played the shit out it. I thought it might be interesting for all of…

Hey Everybody,
I was just amazed to find this. I know I had studied Tony's Green Dolphin Street Etude... But I didn't remember recording the whole thing.. Let alone playing it! Man, I can't do this at this time...
I don't play it without…
Jam Session at Bedlam BBQ
I always find it interesting to talk about the different jazz "scenes" in different places. Its pretty neat. Its like each city has its own direction that jazz is moving in. If i understand correctly, Philly is…
Vince plays great bebop lines. Think about this in terms of 4 mallet playing. If your lines are as full as Vinces, this would change your four mallet playing. You wouldn't have to add as much accompaniment. You could if you wanted, the…
My final this year in improv class is simple. Students will play Have You Met Miss Jones in 4 keys. Head, Solo, Head. Sounds like it could be simple. But for them it proves to be very difficult.
They have to play in time, and they play…
Ok, so we studied chords and harmony. I sure hope some of you guys got some stuff out of all that. There was a ton to learn and study!
So I figured before we had back to tunes we should officially study the other side of all this and that…
Dave Kemp's arrangement of Milestones for his Latin Jazz project - Latin Vibe. Live performance at the Valley Jazz Festival 2009 at the Judith Wright Centre in Brisbane Australia.
Intro and improvisation
Recorded at a very loud - this is a hungarian characteristic... :)) -) club in Hungary, Bekescsaba, 2005 summer.

Dick and Jimmy Odgren are two excellent jazz musicians that were part of the Berklee scene in the 1970s. Jimmy did a stint with the Gary Burton Quartet. They are both fine composers and one tune I've always enjoyed is one of Dick's tunes…
