An old member of the site (Tifoo) sent this transcription from one of my videos of Bluesette. It's just the head, but I thought I'd post it.
Here's the video: http://www.vibesworkshop.com/video/bluesette-video/tonymiceli/010109
The transcription is below.
One of my favorite groups! This is cookin!
Listen to the lines and the counter lines. What a masterpiece.
What up, VWS. I am trying to post everyday, so in light of that... here is what I worked on for a good part of the day. I took an etude for Prince and worked it out incorporating all the sticks. This was pretty difficult for me. I mess up the head a little bit, because I was so brain dead by the time I recorded this. This is but half the etude, it is a two chorus etude, so in the next few days I will post the whole thing. I'm still always working on the "sweet spot" of pedaling lines... not too ringy, but enough to give sustain.
Hey guys, here's a clip of On The Sunny Side Of The Street from a recent gig with some nice players and friends. Lance Bryant on tenor, David Clark on bass and Jun Saito on drums. There are some loose spots here and there, but we had fun. No rehearsal, just call tunes on the gig type of thing. There are more clips that we'll be uploading as they are edited. Here's the link to my YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/edsaindon
Here's some tips to practicing a faster 7 tempo . Mic gain was high, so a little distorting on some chords toward the end.
Tony re-posted an older blog I wrote a couple of years ago about my experience sitting in with Bill Evans and with Milt. Reading it again reminded me that there are two more stories along this line worth telling.
Has anyone heard of Jeremy Kittel? He is a member of Turtle Island String Quartet. He's one of the best fiddle players I have ever heard. His other group (Jeremy Kittel Band) came to Columbia Friday for a concert. I was blown away. Below is a link of his arrangement of Hendrix's 'Hey Joe'. I will let the music do the rest of the talking for how incredible this guy is.
This is picture of a tiny dutch car. I put the seat up and the M55 frame fit in perfectly. Well snuggly. I couldn't fit the cases I brought down here in the car, they were hard cases.
This is my oldest instrument from 1978, a present from my mom when I went to school.
