I had a great time getting to know Bruce on a more personal level plus, there's nothing like being face to face with a friend. I've posted a pic of to share with our friends @ the VW. Enjoy!
Tony Fontana
just something i was thinking about while practicing today thanks to Behn's recent post.
This is a vibraphone and vocal duet of a piece composed by Rebel Bran. Please give this a good listen and make a comment if you feel compelled.
I've been working with a group called Rebel Bran and the Funky Sexy Orkestar. A silly name yes, but there is some interesting music being played. This is a song entitled Djelem Djelem, which I believe is the anthem of the Roma people. In this project I'm a little outside of my comfort zone, but I am greatly enjoying it. I hope you enjoy this track.
Hey everyone,
Even though Tony hijacked half the stuff I was going to talk about, haha, I tapped into the reserves and found a few more things to consider when comping over the changes to Days of Wine & Roses. Enjoy!

My vibe has post like Saito Vibraphones.
Saito posts are open. they do not bend over, letting the string rise up when i release the dampener. see attachment for pic. All the posts are like that. it was just easier to get a picture of the end post.
Modern posts ( such as those on the m-55)have a peice of medal that bends over the hook holding it in place when the pedal moves.
