Here's a turn around chord study etude. check out the voicings, the harmony and try to play it!

The pdf and bass only file is below.

This is one of the tunes Firm Routes did last night at the jazz club, my first full gig on vibes its called Peace and Remembrance written by our guitar player.

i am on the site for almost 2 years now and i just want to encourage more people to post.to me it´s a little bit pity that there are so many members but most posts are done only by few memebers. i can for sure understand that many people don´t want to post something, because they think it´s not good enough to be listened by many vibes maniacs or the masters like david friedman or tony miceli. maybe i´m wrong but the main goal about posting is not "fishing for compliments" or try to make the perfect version of something.for sure getting a compliment is nice but that´s not really important.

I was thinking, we have tons of buried lessons and videos here. So if you can, take a second and find your favorite lesson and put 'Diggin' It Up' in the title.

Let's all wish David a very happy birthday! Besides being a great player he's a great teacher and a very giving vibesworkshop cat! I personally love having him hanging around VW!!

Happy birthday David!

Hi Everybody !

i took dimitris tip and tried to play a friedman etude as warm up. to be honest the warm up took me about 3 hours. this etude is not as easy as it sounds or looks at least if you don´t cheat and use the pedal pressed down all the time...
