Joe takes a strange progression and resolved it because of the melody!
How about as an exercise, one of the subscribers transcribe the progression!
They great thing about tunes is that they're automatic etudes! I'm doing a hard etude with the tune Cherokee. I plan on writing it out and posting it here.
Tonight I decided to take a tune that's a little uncomfortable for me and work on it. The tune is 'I Should Care'. For me it lays awkward on the instrument. I think tunes in F work the best on the instrument. They have the biggest range!
'I Should Care' is in C and it always gives me trouble. If you play it 'up' and octave it doesn't seem to lay well, especially when you're playing Chords and the melody.
Ahmad Jamal and Gary Burton play a tune called "One", not the one from "A Chorus Line."
This is from the early eighties at a foreign jazz festival. I'm not sure if it's Montreux. This tune has an African flavor to it. I have the LP from which this performance is taken. Jamal and Burton have never worked together before and, to my knowledge hadn't worked together since.
Guess how old I am!
This is funny. Duet by Chick Corea and Gary Burton. But both playing on one vibraphone!!
I live in Amsterdam and living in Amsterdam means that you can't really practice at home. At least not where I practice and especially not if you also play drums and live with your girlfriend who doesn't have a dayjob like me(musician).

I can't resist posting you this vid of Ed Saindon in duet and trio!
Shame on me, I don't know that much of his musical recordings, but I truly dig this performance!
And with a special "best of" for me with the third sample, around 4"44: there's so much fun and mischeviousness in that one: they look like kids! :o) I love it!
