Joe Hands Over the Vanderplas Balieo 3.5 Octave Vibraphone to vibesworkshop.com

How lucky we are to have Joe Locke on the vibeworkshop.com.

I know he planted a bug in Nico's ear about sending down the 3.5 Octave Vanderplas Baileo vibraphone for vibesworkshop.com to use. As we all know my instrument was rattling like crazy.

Nico and Bill Youhass agreed that that was a good idea and I'm so grateful. Now we have a great instrument for great vibe players to come and play on!

Saturn's Child by Joe Locke (Feat. Rosario Giuliani)

Wow!

Nadja just put on line this new video from JazzBaltica summer 2008.

Joe Locke and Sticks and String re-visiting Saturn's Child... with Rosario Giuliani as guest... Oh man!

I love the way that video was recorded, with close shots of Joe's grip (beginning) and of other musicians in there thoughtfull playings.

A huge solo from Rosario (3'48), who quite often plays with Joe, but whom we don't see enough on videos.

I also truly dug the vibes/guitar double voice speach, especially from 6'10... wow!

Oh... man...

Enjoy! :o)
