Joe Locke playing John's vibes in Limerick (Ireland)

|
I love this image for all its good vibes symbols: first this is Joe Locke & Geoffrey Keezer group which is awesome in itself. Then because they were playing as star guests at the first Limerick Jazz Festival, organised by our friend and Irish member John Daly (amazing and huge work for him and his team!). And also because Joe is playing John's instrument... needless to say the picture, light and colors are beautiful! Thanks for sharing John! :o) - M

Great Pumpkin Waltz (with BIAB) 121001 by BarryK

Happy October. To get you in the mood for Halloween, I enclosed my arrangement of Vince Guaraldi's "Great Pumpkin Waltz". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Great_Pumpkin

I think it is a good beginner 4-mallet tune to play, with descending bass. My arrangement uses double-stops in the left handle. I didn't write out the B section left hand (lazy); the Gmaj7 is G&B thirds; the Cm is C&Eb, but sometimes I use A&Eb.

Autumn in New York (with BIAB) 121001 by BarryK

I might have an opportunity to jam with an accordion and guitar in November, doing an Art Van Damme thing.

I am trying to collect some tunes that would be good to do. I think one would be Autumn in New York. Here is my practice session with BIAB.

If you have any suggestions of tunes to play, please let me know.

Thanks,
Barry

Thanks Drew!

Not only did Drew answer my question, but he gave me a new way to think about it. I printed his response to carry around with me for a few days so I can to go over it and absorb it enough to see if I have any more questions. This is an example of why why this site is such a great resource!

Forum Topic: looking for bars

Hey guys, just wanted to let you know that i'm in search for a set of graduated bars to purchase, any brand, any condition, just as long as they're graduated and in tune (preferently 440, but 442 would work too).
anything you know of, please let me know at uvib(at)ymail.com (yes, Ymail... it's yahoo)

best,
Diego
