I just dicovered this great presentation, enjoy !!!

This is the pilot episode from the late fifties detective series Johnny Staccato, played by John Cassavetes. He's a former jazz pianist turned detective. At Waldo's, the bar he likes to frequent and sit in, there's another house band featuring a vibes player in the front line - played here by Red Norvo.

This is from the 1958 series Peter Gunn, where the house band in the series features Lola Albright on vocals and Victor Feldman on vibes. Note the interplay between Victor and Lola on this excellent "cool" rendition of "How High The Moon."

If you're old enough, you probably remember back in the 80's when there was a popular advertising campaign for Windy's that coined the phrase "Where's the beef?" I've found that the current state of affairs in music has a relationship to that commercial - Where's the motif? Where's the melody?" "Where's the beef?

Here's a video of Steve Hobbs. He's a vibe player from I think Virginia, or one of the Carolina's. He plays great. Check him out.

This was an evening of improvisation and spontaneous invention. I'm sure everyone will recognize this piece,

Hi vibes lovers today i'll talk about John Coltrane one of the most innovative musician in modern jazz:
i'll explain you the theory behind his harmonic world starting from one of his greatest tune called Giant Steps.
