THE VIBE is getting closer to what I want in an instrument! You're seeing it here as it develops.
A flute and vibes duet
Check out the sound track. Great! Here's what my buddy John Keene wrote me.
This is the season 1 finale of Peter Gunn (episode 38 which is hard to believe they used to do 35+ episodes per season for these old shows). There are a few standout things besides the basic plot.

John thinks (and I think) it sounds like Red Norvo.
From Vibraphone Technique: Dampening and Pedaling (Revised Edition)
What I find interesting is making personal arrangement by playing all the parts on MIDI keyboard and acoustic vibes all over. You learn the tune then in the least detail.
Tony has challenged me to post 12 versions of Little Suede Shoes in 36 days (one every 3 days) in each key of the pythagorean 12 note system (well-tempered).
The rule: I must play the head, play Charlie Parker's solo, and then improvise within the key for 1 chorus. I end it with one A section.
You're on Tony!
On display is Little Suede Shoes in its original key of Eb. Each new key will be posted as a comment.

這邊講到如何在四個音的和弦上，只移動一個音，就可以換到下個和弦。
打開PDF，看到第一行，是最基本的2-5-1-6的和弦進行。
從Aminor7中，移動5音（G）到下一個和弦D7的三音(F#)。
然後第二小節Gmajor7的根音（G）移動到下個和弦E9的三音(G#)
依此類推，你可以看到下一行也是用這樣的方式，
只移動一個音到鄰近的音，但是整個和弦聲音都變了。
甚至是第三行，就算在同一個和弦上，我們也可以移動一個音，改變和聲配置，
讓你在Comping時，更多選擇可以使用。
