Hi everyone at Vibes Workshop
I decided to put up one of the last and most recent videos I had done because it is becoming so obvious that I still won't have more for some time. So, anyway, here it is, Remember When written by Lennie Niehaus, a beautiful ballad. I am not quite sure when I made this video but it was in the last three or four years. I had not posted this on YouTube until June of 08.

This (see attached pics) is where I spend a few hours everyday. It's a room-within-a-room, in my basement. Soundproof for the people next door, and for my family upstairs. I start soon after breakfast, always with the vibes, still trying to tame that Vanderplas. Then I move to the drums (1970 Gretsch mounted with Earthtone heads) and let steam off. Then a Havana cigar, and a streetwise book. My grandson Steven plays alto. He knows more at 13 than I did at 20. My buddies Laurent (bass) and JM join me a couple of times a week for sessions.
I was inspired by tonys insane cherokee etude so I thought i'd throw up a version from a different angle! Hope you enjoy!
Here's an excerpt from from my senior recital at Curtis.
