Sounds like her voice is a little tired. But check this out. You talk about ears!!!!

Check Out Terry Gibbs' Solo!

SMOKINNNNNNN

Man he's in great shape!

Listen to when he has the whole band playing 16s. Everybody in that band is a mo' fo. Oh man, wait till that part. I was dying!!!

Sorry, this is no vibes... but wow! I went to a concert last night. Anouar Brahem, the Tunisian 'Prince Of Oud' and his pals got us into a beautiful trip.

This great oriental 12 string kind of mandolin has in itself a magical sound. Anouar was accompanied by lebanese percussionist Kaled Yassine. But to complete this quartet, he chose two instruments and players from the north: German Klaus Gesing on bass clarinet and Swedish bassist Bjorn Meyer.

"Antihistamine Moments"

Hi all

Haven't posted for awhile for various reasons. This particular post is for Joe Locke and Philippe Briand. I promised them both and it has taken a little while for me to do this. Enjoy

Vid has flaws and may be out of sync a bit, but that is okey, it is what it is.

p.s. Johan F. found my vid on YouTube and it has only been posted for a couple of minutes. Is that fast or what. Thanks again Johan.

Hi all,

We've talked quite a lot about vibes and popular music. Here is an example.

Yesterday I came across this vid of my vibist friend Norbert. It's not jazz, but he joined a group named 'General Elektriks' where he plays drums and vibes.

In October they were hosted on French program 'Taratata', a good musical moment where music is 100 % live. As guest was 'M', a hip famous French musician/singer (guy with the black hat). The tune they revisited 'Melodie Nelson' is from great French late composer Serge Gainsbourg.

This is my ensemble at the University of the Arts. They're playing the Ornette Blues 'When Will the Blues Leave'.

They're a very talented bunch. Andrew Nitolli is the only freshman in the group and he's doing a great job keeping up with the older students.

Andrew is kicking ass here at the school. He's blowing through a couple transcribed solos and playing them in all the keys, and working out voicings and chords, etc.

He's a former student of Joe Locke and I know Joe is pretty proud of Andrew!

Great video of Hutch!

Just some video from my gig last night. Rhythm section is swinging.
