Hey Vibrafans,
I'm working on a recording and I'm very excited about it!
From my book Jazz Lines...free verse in the key of jazz, musician Steve Yeager and I have selected 15 of the poems and he has set them to music. I'll be creating a CD to go along with Jazz Lines in the near future. Don't have a date yet but will let you know.
Steve is a vibraphonist from Minneapolis - check out his recordings -

A tune I really like by Monk. Working on adding some chords over improv, its a trial and error thing so its a slow burner, anyway comments advice tips all welcome
Thanks in advance

Hey everybody, I'm Jeremy and I'm beginning my studies as a vibraphonist. Tony told me to listen to Alone at Last andjot down my thoughts about it so that's what I did.
My personal favorite mode Hard Mode BECAUSE THE GRIND DOESN'T STOP
Somewhere around the beginning of the pandemic, I took on several personal projects. One of them was to go back and read one of my favorite textbooks on composition with hopes that something new would pop out at me which I could incorporate into my compositions, my improvisation, etc. The original was in German, so I have always been using an English language translation; I had credited that with the fact that there were long stretches of it that felt a little cryptic and maybe even wrong to me in the past. I was wrong. They are perfectly clear.

I'm not sure what to make of it, but I really appreciate the color coding.
