Amos, Try and memorize the chords on the sheet music. Think about the fact that where those notes are and however they are mixed up, as long as the bass player plays the bass note, it is that chord. Do you get it?

She's totally bad ass! I love her left hand and the independence. I think this might be where the next 4 mallet giant comes from. maybe the vibes are neither a piano or guitar but instead a Gyil!!!

This wonderful, quirky tune by Earl Zindars has been a favorite of mine for over 50 years. I used to jam on this tune in the 70's and perform it with bassist Harvie S. Although I'd been playing it off and on I never was satisfied with my…

Is it her face or your face? Politically correct I guess is her. Did I post this already?

I first heard of Manu Dibango when AM radio was playing his hit "Soul Makossa" around 1974, and I knew of him as an Afrobeat singer and sax player. I had no idea he played mallets until I saw a video concert around 1999 on the BET on Jazz…

Behn Gave a Good Tip at the World Vibes Congress -V

Content type: Story
He said play an Ab dominant bebop scale over a Cmin7b5. It's interesting because a C-7b5 looks like a rootless Ab9 chord. So I thought I'd pass it along here. I'm sure he has covered it in lessons, but I thought I would mention it.
