Hey Everyone,

I just stumbled upon this Mike Mainieri Discography. It has some pretty good stuff on there. I actually found it looking for info on his cd: Other side of the Blues.

And I found out that he also played as a sideman on a guitar tribute to the beatles album. At least the info is hard to get, but I listened to a track of Norwegian Wood and it has vibes and some marimba like stuff on it. So if mr mainieri is around, maybe he can confirm this...?

Here's the link to the discography:

Check the link out right above this. I've been having a discussion with Tony F about some things. Here I read the letter and comment on it. In the link under 'Check This Out' you'll fing the written dialogue.

I kept his name anonymous because I wasn't sure he wanted it known. I see though he published our whole conversation, which I think is cool!

Tony and I had an email exchange regarding the "I Should Care" lesson. He asked me to post my feedback during that lesson. We agreed I would post for the group this exchange, so, here it is.

Hello everyone.
I guess the words "Chega de saudade" and Gary Burton associated together remind you all a special feeling...
Well how to describe it ?
to me : historical

But unseen...only my imagination to put the Burton image on this amazing solo.

I know Tony said the end of the year make some of us feel down,
but it is Christmas time !
Let the hope be with us, and the partage and...voilà !

I know some of these topics we've been talking about are a little over some of your heads. Which is fine, I'd like to help get you further up the ladder, so you can understand more of that.

With that in mind, What questions do you have that might help me when making up lessons for this site. Let's stick on the more basic side of vibe playing in this topic.

What do you think?

Here are a bunch of lessons on licks. There's also a lot of talk about licks on this site, players have different opinions of them as you'll see if you look around.

Here's an article of Ed's from PAS.
