We now have a very thorough stuff of voicings here! There's so much to learn.
Hi all!
A few days ago I received the Vic Firth Gary Burton mallets - 2 pairs for a total of Euro 65,- Including shipping + import sales/purchases tax + handling by the Austrian mail services. Here in Austria, if the price of an item is less then Euro 150,- there is no duty!
Thats a bargain since a single pair costs about Euro 55,- or more(check out thomann and all the others).
So my recommendation is to order by one of the big shops. I ordered at Steveweissmusic which I can recommend, but there are others.
The only con is that it takes some 4 weeks to get the stuff delivered.
This is not vibes, but man, it's amazing music!
Louis Winsberg is a great French guitarist. I met him as he worked with my vibist friend Norbert Lucarain, and I already talked on the site about him and his great contribution to the world music and jazz.
A few years ago, I was at a concert and I saw this incredible Saz duet with his pal Jean-Christophe Maillard... It never had been recorded... until now! And untill my friend Bernard found it!
Joe Doubleday likes to put online thoughts of masters on his facebook profile. This one caught my attention. I'm sure you'll all agree on it... and that he'll forgive my past/copy! :o)

The Quartet that I have been playing with for a few months now just decided to record a demo to give out to places so we can score some more gigs. We met up at a school in a choir room and mic'd up and ran through with minimal takes. Then the bass player ran it through logic. Pretty quick and dirty.
I decided that instead of posting all the recordings on here, I would just post my myspace page with all my stuff.
the group is:
Joe Doubleday- Vibes
Dr. Cory Gavito- Piano
Mike Boyle- Bass
Hal Corn- Drums
Hi Tony and everybody;
Actually, I don't have a lot of time to follow all new topic on the site, but I don't forget you!!
When I practice I record myself, so here is a video of "oléo" was record this week.
Advise, critical, all comments are welcome!
I think that I miss direction in my solo, too much "draft".
wrong notes and bad rhythm also in the thème sometimes... sorry! ^^

This is pretty funny, especially when they talk about jazz.
Pretty epic huh? I haven't listened to it for a long time. I installed Ubuntu on one of my PC's and set up last fm on it and have been listen to things I haven't heard in a long time.
Is that Freddie on trumpet? What a trumpet solo.
The cut I just listened to was Ella singing Mack the Knife. They have the wrong CD listed. Isn't this Live in Berlin? Where she forgets the words? Wow, who is the piano player on that? That is so swinging and then Ella does a Louie solo. OMFG.
