I'm working on a travel grant application (through the Canada Council for the Arts), so that I can attend the Delaware workshop this summer. The application required three recent recordings, so it was a great opportunity to get into the studio and put something together, which I have been meaning to do for a while since I started playing vibes. I'm a student at the University of Arizona, and there is a studio in the music building, which worked out well. The three tunes are "How Deep is the Ocean?", "Darn that Dream", and "Kind Folk".

Here's a chorus on the changes to Autumn Leaves. Pay close attention to the articulation.

Quality entertainment ! Music starts at 3:00

Hi All,
This June marks the beginning of the fifth year of Good Vibes. Hard to believe. I'll be playing a set of three Milt Jackson recordings, and continue to explore newer CDs: Red Norvo's Four Classic Albums, Steve Shapiro's Low Standards, Hendrik Meurkens Mundell's Moods with Chuck Redd on drums and Dave Stryker's new Eight Track with Stefon Harris on vibes. I'll be playing some classics and some new compositions, Vigorous Vibes and Organic Vibes. Come listen.
