Video footage of Cal is pretty rare, and I found this the other day on YouTube. This is the longer clip with three tunes on it - Cubana Chant, Poinciana, and Doxy.

The instrument is a Deagan 1000, and it's nice to see Hefner keepin' it real by moving the vibraphone into place.

Some Sunday night musical reflection on “America” with some reharmonization, modulation and constant structure chords. If anyone would like the lead sheet just let me know.

I'm trying to get organized here, but it's not easy for me. Since the quarantine I have been busier than I've ever been. Being online is more work than being offline!

But I would like to see which subscribers want to meet up once or twice a month and play and talk about stuff.

Here's the thing, you have to have good bandwidth, decent audio and decent video.

There are ways to do it. And I will help any subscriber that has questions.

Post your question on the site here as a blog. I will try and answer and make a book in the vbooks sectdion.

Scroll through the wall on this page. There are some great solo performances on this page of great players.

Can you post the lesson link and tell me how it helped you?

SOLO TO TRANSCRIBE - Transcribe it!

(look out - hardcore vibe geek post ahead)

Today at the vibes coffeehouse someone asked "Where are all the other vibes players? Why aren't they here?"
There were 27 of us on the Zoom call today, but there are around 5000 vibesworkshop members on this site. Only 25-40 of us are the hardcore bunch tuning in each week.
