This is a song that was recorded for our last CD. It was co-written by Beto Lopes on Gtr and Bass and myself. It's full name is Brisbane at 1800.
Beto started writing it at 6pm in our back yard watching the sunset. It is off Casa do Boa Vida by The View from Madeleine's Couch

[Update 10/1/13 - I forgot to mix in the backing tracks; Fixed now.]

I hung out with the guitar great Louie Stewart and Philly's own Larry Mckenna while in Ireland.

They both told me about Tubby Hayes. I didn't know that he played vibes. I'm listening to him right now and he sounds great and swinging!

Any else know about him?

I just found this video of a popular TV show in Brazil. That's the first time I see a vibraphone used in music from north-east of Brazil. The rythm played is a medium baião, typical of this part of Brazil. The others instruments are very typical too. Interesting to see a young vibist playing in a such context. Proof for me that vibes is step by step infusing all the styles of music...The instrument is Brazil made.
The music starts at 0:48

Hey
Melancholia is arranged by me and sophisticated lady is from real book.

Hey Everyone,

But in the 1th place :
Hey Gary,

I have seen you perform in France this year,(Coutance Jazz), and I've been following the pictures you post of your tour.

My impression is, that the kind of places where you play, are totally different in Europe then in the states.

I get the feeling in Europe you (but also other artists) play more in concerthalls, places which are designed to perform on a stage, for a huge crowd.
While in the states it looks more like clubs, or more specific places.

I get the same impression with, for example, John Zorn.

Hi All,

I'll be Livestreaming my gig tonight (27-Sep) with the MetroWest Jazz Project from 8:00 to 10:30 PM EDT. I'll try to place the camera in a better location this time :-). You can tune it at http://new.livestream.com/accounts/1758489/events/2431779.
