I posted #4 awhile back - continuing to work through the book. Constructive feedback is always welcome!
A little “Basin St. Blues” from a warmup session today at Berklee before classes. I love these classic old gems. Some great versions from Louis Armstrong, Oscar Peterson and Keith Jarrett.
Dana Sudborough a vibe player in Dallas, asked on Facebook why Don Byron had a cd called NO-VIBE ZONE with a picture of a vibe with the red circle and the line going through it. You know it. No smoking.
I forgot about this cd and saw it when it came out. It looks pretty negative about the vibes. Just don't know why he named it that. On the Facebook post they mention an interview.

Check out Randy! He plays great!
Thadeus Tukes is the vibe player.
I dig him. If you listen you can see he knows how to play through changes pretty good!
I see vibe players who are trying to get the lionel thing and many times I don't think they play that well or don't capture Lionel with any quality. Not sure how good of a job I would do come to think of it :-) and I've done a few tributes.
But something about this guy had me checking him out!

A kind of independence exercise in 9 that I turned into a mini tune/interlude for my CD "Cubist." Also features African balafon and Indian tabla, with Randy Roos on guitars.
