Good Vibes Radio Update January '17

Time

Hello Everyone,
"See you next year," may be kind of trite as the new year is coming up close, but the next time you'll HEAR me will be next year. Good Vibes airs on New Year's Day at 8p and replay is the following Wednesday at 4p. Most of you will listen online (www.jazzon2.org) or through an app like NPR News (free) as our four NPR stations are local to New Jersey and parts of PA. I'd be glad to list them for anyone in the area who wants to know and has an HD radio.

Vibes Bootcamp Recap

Hello everyone!
It's been awhile since I've posted anything on the site, but I'm finding time to be a vibraphonist at least a little while school consumes my life...

Last weekend I attended the first Vibes Bootcamp at Tony's house in Philadelphia. He wants to make it a recurring event, so I figured I'd give a little recap:

The boot camp was an intensive two days of studying vibes in an intimate yet relaxed setting; there were only five of us, plus Tony and Anthony Smith as our instructors. Randy Sutin also stopped by to hang and offer playing tips.

So.... I'm so busy keeping the site up, that I don't get to members comments quick enough. there is a cue of them. problem is a bunch of them are spam. So I have to look.

But this member posted this video. I think the vibes sound beautiful and he's playing an original more popish kind of tune. But I thought it sounded beautiful! So here it is... .and i'll get to member's posts and comments.

I like the clarity of it all. he def dampens to the melody NOT the chords. can you hear this?
