The vintage Musser M-55 is a superb vibraphone. I own both a 1978 M55 that I purchased new and also a 1960s vintage M-75. Both are excellent instruments, but they each have their own personalities. The M-75 has a slightly darker and silkier sound. The M55 is brighter, projects more strongly, and sustains the sound longer. The M-75 frame is very solid and stable, but because of all of the parts and pieces, moving the M-75 is difficult. My M-75 lives in my studio and my trusty M-55 is my gigging instrument.

Hi Everyone,

Here's a real study in simplicity. This is from Hutcherson's latest album on Blue Note with Joey DeFrancesco, David Sanborn, and Billy Hart. The tune is a blues by Joey titled "Don Is". I believe the album is on Spotify, but I encourage everyone to buy it! It's really great to hear Bobby still playing after all these years.

You can't go wrong with such memorable songs as these. They sound great arranged for anything - orchestra, rock band, solo guitar, solo vibes, jazz group, choir, whatever.

Practicing Duke Ellington's "In a Sentimental Mood" today during my office hour at Berklee.

I don't know why but I was thinking of Ed when I was practicing that.
