Xylophone

Another xylo lesson that would definitely help beginning improv vibe players.

Recently upon reviewing some transcriptions I have done, I stumbled across a very simple and clear example of why transcription is so important I thought i'd share.

The transcription is of John Coltrane playing his composition "LazyBird".

Another lesson by John Swana that can benefit vibes players AND trumpet players!

John's not a vibe player but this is great stuff!

Great lesson for beginning vibe players as well!

I was looking at some things today on the site. I found out a couple things. We have over 6,000 individual posts on the site and over 24,000 comments.

Those are very rough figures but they give an idea of what's here. There is a LOT of information now on this site.

Just remember to also check out the vbooks (http://www.vibesworkshop.com/book). Things in there will stay there in the order they are in. While not everything is in there yet, a lot of the early lessons are there.

Just thought I'd pass that on. 6,000 posts and 24,000 comments is a lot of talking about the vibraphone!!!

Although this is xylo lesson, if you're a begining vibe improviser definitely check this lesson out.
