I'm Old Fashioned - Solo Vibes

Getting a little practice time in today at home while on a semester break from Berklee. Here are a few choruses of I'm Old Fashioned by Jerome Kern and Johnny Mercer. I learned this tune playing with trumpeter Herb Pomeroy and clarinetist/saxist Dick Johnson. I learned so much from playing with them. Sadly, they have left us but are still very much missed and remembered by many musicians especially in the Boston area.

Videoclips of the tracks will be released via the Vic Firth YouTube channel over the next few months.

Happy New Year and Best Wishes to everyone for 2015!
