Subject: Ed Friedland article on Jazz.. Cracked me up

I'm looking for a good set of vibes. I am a middle school jazz vibes player and i need one at home to practice. I have a limited budget. I don't want to spend to much. Ideally, i am looking for a musser m55, but that might not happen. If you have any kind of vibraphone, i will look into it. If you have a decent set of vibes, regardless of the brand, and for the right price, you can consider it sold.

to Begin .. i would just like to say that ive known tony since the he started this adventure of the vibesworkshop ... and hands down. this is the best source on the planet for any mallet percussionist beginner .. semi pro or recording artist... thank you soo much for allow us all to contribute our brains to your brainchild ... much respect ...

two years ago i posted a blog reguarding my continual problems with my right hand. just under two years ago i actually sold my vibes and reinvented myself as a b3 player keyboardist due to the extreme pain threshold ...

Hello everyone!

I would like to ask if somebody knows a good sampler module with good sounds of vibes and marimba (probably for using electronic mallet system). I'm mainly interested in hardware, but if anyone knows some good (free/cheap) software it will be good information too.

Thanks!

Marcel

I just set up a new library. Remember our old one? The thing about the software we use is that we're at the mercy of the open source drupal community. The last library we had set up used a module that pulled in all the Amazon info for a product. Now we have a new module but for technical reasons we have to build back the library.

So all you jazz vibe veteran subscribers consider posting a review or 2 a week to help all the new vibes players on the site build their vibe library and learn.

Pretty funny!

Hi All,
Here's an update on the Good Vibes all request show by YOU, the members of vibesworkshop for the evening of January 2 and the afternoon of the 5th. There was more music than time allowed. The music I had to exclude is in no way a reflection upon the music itself or the musicians, but on radio concerns like time, tempo, style. I will try to play what does not appear here on subsequent shows. Making the cuts was difficult, to say the least, but I was guided by including at least one by everyone who requested.
As always, I love your feedback.
