Hey Everybody, June's show is coming up fast. I finally got a hold of that Dinah Shore and Red Norvo album I've been trying to get for the last few years. I'll be introducing it in June. The new albums I've been playing lately are Stefon…

Listen to the first tune! Ode to Billy Joe. And the second tune. I think he does a good job playing pop tunes! What do you think? Some people play pop tunes and it's not very convincing to me and others totally turn the tune into something…

This is a difficult one. Again I left the chords out. Get the real book out and write in the changes so you in some small way begin to think about the harmony. Look at the notes and enter the chords. Can you see the different keys this…

Which is cool that Stefon is on this show because Stefon thinks the vibes should be taken out of the percussion family and moved in with the Piano. Great interview!

Very sad. I have some great memories of Dave. Of course he left a lot of great music behind. My Samuels story is going to a gig he had in Delaware with my best friends wife. He was working and said take Annie with you! So we went. Had a…

My friend Fisher at Ischell has finally finished his vibraphone mic system called Bar X. These are contact mics that go on each par like the piezos but mic the bars in a much more organic and acoustic way. (I have his bass mic and have…

Hey y'all, so I recently bought a 76' M55. The guy who owned it before me bought it from Musser and it never left his basement. It's in almost perfect condition and I'm hoping to keep it that way. I'll be packing up and moving the…

Since Tony posted about 'twitting' to learn more about music, I thought I'd thrown in another technology bit. On Facebook, you can become a fan of Musser Mallets and they put up a bi-weekly fun fact about their instruments. This picture…

Just picked up an m-75. I think it's the first year they made it because the motor is NOT variable speed. And a Deagan Marimba from the 40s in beautiful condition. The m-75 is a fantasy instrument of mine. I promised the owner that they…

Great interview with Mike Mainieri. I'm probably the only person who hasn't seen it already but I thought it was excellent. https://youtu.be/2053-hgjve0

This is our first try at recording this wonderful little song at a crazy, slow tempo. (The original version is up tempo!) I'm not sure if anyone under the age of 50 is familiar with this tune. The composer, Harold Arlen, wrote such…

Hi Tony, I had a go at this. I should probably practice it more, but I was inspired by Al to post something. I had to simplify a chord or two to play it at this tempo. I also missed at least one chord in the bridge, but I think I kept the…

I saw Tony's email on Friday with a link to the music for this, so I decided to take a look at it last night. And shot this video this morning. There's at least one wrong note, so I haven't earned the "free" skype lesson, yet...assuming…

Here's a chord melody followed by a challenging quarter note solo with chords. The first part is for everyone, the second part is for advanced students. It's a real work out on chords and voice leading. @Tristan - Can you play it?

An improvisation with me on 4-mallet balafon and Rakalam Bob Moses playing drums and percussion. This is the opening track of our duet CD called "Mobeus" where we surrender to the wild ride and "flow without measure."
