Joe Doubleday was an early subscriber on the site. He used to post his gigs when he was in high school and just beginning on vibes.

His mom was an airline stewardess so he would fly around the country for free taking lessons off of vibe players and fly home later in the day. Amazing!

Fast forward 8 years and he's graduated Berklee and Juliard and is a great vibe player! He did a cd with a really great clarinetist.

He said I could post a Soundcloud link to the CD for Vibesworkshop Subscribers to check out. It's great!

So here's the deal.

I wrote an etude of all eighth notes. It's important for us to be able to weave through the changes, up and down and up and down. It's important for us to move the line in seconds. We do it much more easily with 3rds, but 2nds is where the magic happens.

• If you're going to do this right, write in the changes and study the lines.
• Play the etude down.
• Memorize the etude completely.
• Throw away the music.
• Play the etude in other keys.
• Smile at how much you've learned
