Hey Vibes players!

I'm looking for music played with this formation, for take ideas for playing with this kind of trio. Anyone knows good albums or players who have done it?

Marcel

Not sure if this is the right place to post this question, but...

On the Milt Jackson CD titled "Sa Va Bella" there is a great tune called "Blues For Queen D" that I'm learning.

Does anyone know of a play-along track for that song anywhere? Also can this be a Tune of the Month?

Thanks, Karl

I got this link from my friend Corey... Wow!! Funky Hamp!! :o)

Guys, as you may know James Whiting is our main Australian vibist and at hardly 20 he just released a beautiful and deep album of his own compositions (btw, Joe Locke wrote a very nice introduction on it): http://www.jameswhiting.com.au/albums-burbank/

But here are two new links from his recent gig... both being covers:
- Ruminations (by Joe Locke): see above.
- Hope (by Ed Saindon): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VyTGG2tpOgw&feature=player_embedded

Hello,

today I would like to present one of the most underrated german/european vibes player: WOLFGANG SCHLUETER!

I took some clips of him on his latest concert. The clips have been recorded May 27th, 2011 at Birdland Jazzclub in Hamburg. WOLFGANG SCHLUETER is 78 years old (!) at that time and beside this he is nearly blind!!! But he does not care about both and is still playing UNBELIEVABLE!

Philipp Steen (Bass)

This guy is almost as good as Gary Burton when he was 19, huh?

I've raved about Tommy Vig to Tony several years ago and Tony wasn't familiar with him. Here's Tommy and a jazz group from Budapest, Hungary. Tommy is a native of Budapest, but he was in LA for many years as an in-demand studio percussionist, jazz drummer and vibist. This group peforms "Donna Lee," featuring Tommy on the Mallet-Kat. Tommy is also a world class composer/arranger and in Las Vegas had his own big band with a Neophonic Orchestra instrumentation. As a matter of fact, he composed "Four Pieces for Neophonic Orchestra" for Stan Kenton's LA Neophonic Orchestra.

Listen!
