Here's a suggestion for subscribers using the site and practicing like there is no tomorrow(like you're all doing!).

Say you are working on something, a tune, a progression, a mode or anything like that. The thing to do is to use the search box located to the top left of the page.

Just type in what you are working on (or part of it if you don't get a result) and you'll see posts that relate to what you are working on.

So what if you don't find anything??

I think it is sometimes hard to find a lot of Bobby Hutcherson stuff. He doesn't have loads of cd's with him as a leader, but he did a lot of stuff as a sideman. So there is a guy who put a list on amazon with Bobby Hutcherson on cd's as a sideman! So check it out. I'm gonna post these cd's to the cd library book also.

This is another great solo by Bobby Hutcherson. ENJOY!! :)

Man, we saw 4 people online! John Piper Told me there was a lot of you online. Damn, what happened? I thought wow, no one has questions. Oh man. Piper said there were lots of questions. I ended early because it seemed like no one was there. Something went wrong.

Before playing with Gary Burton, Richard Galliano played with french vibists.
I found an old vidéo on youtube with Philippe Macé on Vibes.
The trio is :
R.Galliano on accordion, JC Capon on Cello, And P.Macé on Vibes.
Philippe used to be part of the ensemble Intercontemporain created by P.Boulez.He quited this ensemble to become a fulltime jazzman.
I think David Friedman knows him, maybe he'll say a word.

I like the sound of the trio and the vibes solo at the end.
I'd say the video is from early 80s.

Ear Training

Just thought I'd pass this along!

I played jazz at a funeral today. And I was late because someone died on the way to the gig. Right on the street, and I got stuck behind the ambulance that was in the middle of the road. I couldn't back up because of the line of cars behind me.

There was this dead guy and then the dead guy at the funeral. This was weird. What pissed me off was that the ambulance blocked the street even after everyone knew that the guy was dead. They all sat there looking at him and talking... and of course looking at the growing line of cars.

Help me name tunes or parts of tunes that are Dorian in sound.

Ha ha, I got the first one. 'So What'.

Oh, here's another. The first to chords of Recordame.

Add on to this list please!

I have a series on modes inside the subscription part of the site. One of the subscribers asked for names of tunes in different modes. So I thought I'd ask all you guys.

So Phrygian, name some tunes that are Phrygian. You can also name sections of tunes that are Phrygian.
