Working on a transcription of Cal Tjader's Tropicville

Cal Tjader is one of the vibraphone masters. His work can inspire others. I'm enjoying my little jump into his playing.

I'm working on a transcription of Cal Tjader's Tropicville from the album Latin Kick. If someone is familiar with this track could you take a look at my transcription. I think it's getting pretty close, but another set of eyes would be awesome. Cheers!

The band featured Matt Marvuglio - flute, Marco Pignataro - sax, David clark - bass, Ron Savage - drums and myself on vibes.

Livestream from Squantum Yacht Club

Hi All,

Since it's the last day of my cell phone billing cycle and I have some data left, we've made a last minute decision to Livestream tonight's gig. The link is http://new.livestream.com/accounts/1758489/events/2195047/statuses/2218….

We'll be starting at about 7:30 (pm EDT) and going for an hour or so with the Livestream -- don't want to run over my data limit! There won't be anyone to monitor the chat room, so you're on your own there.

Enjoy!

Tom P.
