I was asked, for obvious reasons, to play this on my gig last night. Had to do a quick and dirty chart, which was kinda lame... so tonight, while practicing, I was working out something a little more coherent. It's not fully baked and not…

I'm a beginner vibes player, and am fortunate to play in a band that has a very wide variety of tunes in the repertoire. Don't ask me why... it just kind of worked out that way, and we're all amateurs in it for fun and doing…
Here's a short clip of Blue in Green that I recorded on an M55 from 1968 that I picked up last year. It still needs some tweaking here and there with the dampening system, but it's a lot better than what it was. It was in pretty bad shape…
