An experienced vibe player plays a lot less roots than an inexperienced one. We know that roots for us do not move the harmony, the upper partials do. I've talked extensively about this on vibes workshop.

Also with a bass player there's no need to play the bass notes right? So work on your rootless voicings.

One thing I've talked about is the following. Play these chords:

Fmaj7
E triad / F
Emin7

That's what the chords look like without the roots. That's a ii V I in the key of C. Play it you'll see.

打開PDF你會看到兩種不同的intro方式。
第一種，是適合用在快的曲子之前。
有一個固定低音，然後上面是五級三和弦和弦循著半音下行，

第二種適合用在中版速度的Rhythm Changes
是一個非常像1 - 6 - 2 - 5的聲響，但是用了很多tritone sub，
像是Db和弦代替了原本1 - 6 - 2 - 5中的G7b9
像是Ｂ和弦代替了原本1 - 6 - 2 - 5中的F7b9
然後最後兩個小節，簡單又清楚，用Ｆ這個音做節奏。

因為很多樂手不習慣跟鐵琴合作，不適應鐵琴的聲音，所以Behn說他有時候即使演奏很清楚的和弦進行，仍然有些樂手會Miss掉Cue，因為他們習慣聽鋼琴的聲響，鋼琴有低音。
所以在這種情況下，我們就要讓Cue點更加清楚，有時候演奏簡單又清楚的Cue是件好事。
