Hello guys, here's another clip from the Berklee recital Joe and I played. This is a clip of us playing the Beatle's Blackbird. We played it with an AAB form. Joe came up with a lead sheet that includes some specific rhythmic chord hits. Joe's changes at the bridge include some subtle reharm variations. Check out Joe's solo. A beautiful example of a melodic solo that builds in intensity. Instead of playing over the form, we each played over a specific chord progression as shown on the lead sheet. Hope you enjoy it.

Hi all,

Here is a lesson that explains some ideas for soloing over the blues. Enjoy!

Inspired by Marcel Pascual's beautiful arrangement of "I Remember You", I decided to learn it.
Somehow, it turned into a stride arrangement.

Hi Toni,

Any suggestions on which is the best way to move a MUSSER M55 on a plane ?

Thanks.

I've pulled this 1988 CD out of the stacks in honor of this month's TOTM. It's a mix of standards and blues. Very nice listening! It has Hamp's version of "Someday My Prince Will Come", the TOTM we worked on in July. And best of all, there are about 33 copies available on Amazon, many being sold for as low as 35 cents plus postage. That's a deal and a steal!

Hi Vibes Lovers!

Sometimes when I'm looking for vibes albums I find that, altough the instrument is not very popular, or perhaps because of it, the vibraphone has especial atractive for the cover image. Bars, mallets, ressonators, frame, etc. are often protagonists of the picture, or ilustration. Sometimes is very artistic point of view, sometimes funny and sometimes just freak, but, even tough the important is the music wich is inside, I find amazing some covers!

Hope this is the appropriate place to post. I'm looking for a vibes player to add to a small jazz ensemble in northern Wisconsin. Probably from Stevens Point or north of there. I'm based in Vilas county but most gigs are from Wausau and north. Please contact me with any leads through my e-mail address pjsdrum@gmail.com . Thanks very much.
