I hope you stay safe and dry. Thinking about our NYC members and those who live up and down the Atlantic coast. You're all in my thoughts and prayers.

It's funny to see this talk about learning tunes. I have 3 tunes to learn. 2 I have never played and one I've forgotten.
Jubilation (new)
Que-Tee (new)
Conception (forgot)
I spent the last 2 hours on Jubilation. I learned the melody first and then the chords. Just playing along with Cannonball (one version) and Art Farmer (the other). Two different versions. Then I checked the harmony.

Here is last month's totm in a different key.
I love this tune! Let's see how bad I can F@#k it up.
ok here´s my final TOTM already. i´m really sorry for the bad and out of tune vocal performance.since this site is more or less family and privat like i don´t care for wrong notes :) i wanted a friend of mine to sing it but he is busy and i wanted to get it done...so i had to do it by myself. the key is much to high for me but i checked out the robben ford version of this song and did not have the intension to sing something on it first. the lyrics just came to me yesterday and are not meant to be too serious as the whole thing. anyway i had fun doing it hope you too...
This year Gary Burton - Joe Locke - Warren Wolf are all playing at the festival, woo-hoo!! I'm hoping to meet them. I met Joe the last time he was here with his Milt Tribute band. Joe took time after his set to chat with me for a few minutes and I got a pic with him. It was a real thrill for me. Of course Joe's just a regular guy who happens to play the vibes, I've found that out about all the pro's here. This is what's so great about this site. Everyone from the novice to the pro coming here sharing, learning and encouraging.
Hey Vibes workshop,

Its a month later and now,the chord changes of Stella by starlight, lullaby of birdland and part C of Green Dolphin street seem blurry and i cant seem to memorizie them after a week. Any tips on Memorizing Chords to a Song
Hello,
Anybody out there know of somebody in the New York area that could fix a vibe motor. I got a 60's century vibe and the motor burned out. Its got one of those cool overdrive buttons that sits on the top of the panel and makes the motor spin faster when you press it. Hate to give that up by buying a new motor altogether.... Anyone fixed one of these things before?
