Well, I will have to give some sort of short workshop at the WVC (World Vibes Congress) this year. I was going to take notes and keep a diary on my computer and thought I would do it here. So I'll blog here and you guys can give me your two cents.
Questions? Thoughts? What did you think? Let's talk about his book, here.
I have some things to say but I'll wait. How about some of you start. Gary will check in to answer questions and comment (I'm pretty sure).
Never heard of him, but I like his playing. Oliver Mayman turned me on to him.
Hello everyone, I'm fairly new to this site and to the vibraphone as well but I'm posting here my video of practicing blues improv. I'll be happy to hear back from you guy's what you hear on what areas of my playing I should aim my focus more. Sometimes it does feel that there is so much stuff to work on but I always have to pick one and stick to that for good amount of time, for now it is a blues vocabulary. Thanks a lot. Best, Martin
I live Takashi. I think that's his name. I have checked him out online for years. I swings great!
Just found this. Check it out. It has to be AI Generated right? It's almost pretty good, but tune forms and the progressions are weird.
Here is a chord melody to Just Friends. I put up a quick audio version which is similar to the pdf, but I just wanted to do my thing, which is partly on the pdf! Right? It changes each time I play it, in little ways.
I left the pedaling off, you know what to do with the pedaling, make it sound good. You don't want notes running together.
Our latest recording. This is my first one with the new array mbira and Marianne’s first with the Irish flute and whistle.
So what do you all think of vibes in the context of traditional Irish music? Definitely NOT traditional. :)
