I just have to tell you guys. I have so much fun with a metronome. I know there are guys that don't think they are cool, but I love working with a metronome. It helps me so much to learn about time!

I just put it on 2 and 4 and play. I can feel my time waver a bit and I can see it's tendencies. I learn so much. Man, try learning a bebop head and then putting the metronome on 2 and 4. See where the accents are, the off beat phrases, etc. Try it out and let me know what you think!

I dig it!

I played a GREAT concert with David Friedman at 'The Mallet Institute' in Dusseldorf, Germany! Video is on the way!

There's a great new school in Dusseldorf, Germany called the Mallet Institute. It looks like it's going to be a great school!

I played a concert with David Friedman and florian Poser. Here's a photo from the concert. I think video and audio is on it's way.

This is not vibes but I think it's a great musical lesson: I discovered this tune today, after listening to a recent interview of Joe Locke where he speaks about it. I heard the Julie London & Shirley Horn versions with lyrics, the Miles/Evans' instrumental. But man when I hear this version I remain speachless: I've never been a great saxophone fan, but to me Michael Brecker here can make the words speak deeper than the lyrics themself... Wow... Enjoy

I discovered this video thanks to Christos Rafalides. I always loved this piece written by Joe Locke, but had never heard it by anyone else but him, and never as a solo piece! It gives it another dimension! Congrats to the performer, Dan!

This is quite interesting and I am sure lots of us have asked ourselves this question many times but have a read and lets hear some comments on this.

Hi Vibe folks,
