Playing an old classic from 1922 with Billy on clarinet, Mark on upright bass and myself on vibes taped during a session here at the house on 3/22/15. An enjoyable day having friends over to play, hang and have dinner. Special thanks to Gustavo Agatiello for overseeing the audio and videotaping.
Hey,
Patrice asked me to give him a hand with the post of his latest practice tape: enjoy! :o)

"Danny Boy" for St. Patrick's Day. The inspiration for this rendition came from pianists Bill Evans' and Keith Jarrett's beautiful versions.
Practicing some solo vibraphone today on another classic composition by Antonio Carlos Jobim. There are so many great compositions by Jobim. This one is "A Felicidade" which is a through-composed piece based upon six 8 measure sections.

I've been spinning records lately....(finally got my turntable fixed) and I pulled out a bunch of records that really were the first vibraphone I'd ever heard: Lofty Fake Anagram, Duster, Time Square, Alone at Last, the Keith Jarrett one too etc.
Some of you, friends, know I am a big Bobby Hutcherson fan...
so I'm excited about this upcoming show in
San Diego, on March 19th at 98 Bottles, with
Ian Harland (also vibes)
Joshua White (piano)
Doug Walker (bass)
Gerard Nolan (sax)
Duncan Moore (drums)
"A Tribute to Bobby Hutcherson"
Bobby wrote and recorded so
many great tunes, both during his fruitful Blue Note
days and also later, when he was out on the West Coast.
we are going to play as many of them
as we can squeeze into one evening!
Here are some of them:
Head Start
Cirrus
Black Circle
Montara
Hello Everyone,
I would love to have a photo or recording to post here as well, but I just wanted to tell a little story about my recent meeting with English vibraphonist, Nat Steele!
