Hey Guys,
I'm playing at Zinc Bar on August 30th with the Ralph Peterson Fo'tet. We play 3 sets. 1 at 8:00pm, 10:00pm, !2:00am. I hope I can see some fellow vibe players there! I'm also playing at Rue 57 on the 31st with the same group at 8pm.
Look forward to seeing you!

Here's an exercise based on the Dexter Gordon tune, "Cheesecake". Good for developing ideas in minor.
OK, for subscribers to the site. Here is your midterm exam. And if you do it, you get a gift. You get my new CD, absolutely free. It features all tunes from the 60's and 70's and features Paul Jost on vocals.
Here are the rules, READ THEM CAREFULLY, pretty please.
1. You have to perform a solo version of a tune. Any tune. I don't care if you're a beginer or advanced.
Thanks to Arturo!
Corey is a member here, though he has a slightly different approach on vibes and on music than most of us. I think he's a great vibes player and person, with a true passion for the instrument like all of us.
He recently decided to sell his old Premier and made a little video of the last moment spent with his "old friend". Oh man I got totally caught and truly moved by those 2 little mn. He allowed me to share them with you.
We are all different... but we all have to say goodbye one day... Hope you receive Corey's message too... Enjoy.
Greetings everyone,
I've recently been enjoying working on exercises in "Velocity Warm-Ups: 92 Improvisional Patterns for Jazz Vibraphone and Marimba" by Charles Dowd. Some great ideas for practicing scales, arpeggios, modes... ects.
I find that my muscles tend to tighten and cramp up while doing some of the above extended exercises. Any suggestions for how to stay loose and relaxed?
Thanks.
