Here's part 1 of a series of lessons helping you understand the tune Giant Steps.
All Night Long is a film that takes place in London's jazz scene of the early 1960s, this updating of Shakespeare's 'Othello' features a strong cast (the late Patrick McGoohan as a brilliant jazz drummer who is very opportunistic and Richard Attenborough), as well as appearances by some of the best known names from the jazz world such as Charlie Mingus, Dave Brubeck, Johnny Dankworth, Keith Christie, former lead and solo trombone from the great Ted Heath band, and the late Tubby Hayes, who apparently has been getting some attention and discussion here on vibes workshop.
This is my third shot at getting the music up on the site. It is Bryan Carrott accompanying Fathead Newman on a very famous jazz tune. See if you can guess it.

If you post something and you want me to hear it and I don't listen right away, PLEASE email me, and check in with me.
My schedule is one where I'm constantly bouncing off walls and running all over the place. It's way too much but it's what I have to do to survive. As a result I forget things, and don't check things.
Please don't think that if I don't check something out that means I don't dig it. Check in with me always!
In another thread (see "Check This Out", above), there was discussion about mallet wraps. I wanted to create a separate thread for this discussion.
Here is a site that sells mallet wrap.

Hey everybody!
I got this link from my super harpist technician buddy from myspace George Flores.
Maybe some of you already saw this?
It's not vibraphone, but wow, it's good good vibes! :o)
Enjoy and keep it up!

P.S.: I like the funny French accent of the first guitarist! Haha!... And every single musician is such a great symbol! Beautiful!
Hi Philippe!
Almost the only thing I know about Wolfgang Schlüter is a record (LP) I have - it is called Houseboat released 1978 under MPS (0068.206; MPS 15.535). As far as I know this LP was never released as CD.
I briefly checked Youtube but with no result for Wolfgang Schlüter.
Here are some links to websites giving some info on WS: - sorry but all German language.
Vibes are booming in France as anywhere else in the world. Classically educated guys like Frank Tortiller are establishing new standards. I really dig this. Do you ?
Anybody know who he is? What's his deal?
