Hey VWs,

Those following along with the TOTM should benefit from checking out this relatively simple yet bluesy solo. Let me know if this kind of stuff helps.

This is a great way to approach music. It speaks to me very much.

Here's another track we did for an agent that's trying to line up a few gigs for myself and Diane Monroe.

This is a ballad and notice since it's a demo, we just played the head down. No point in doing any more, they won't listen to it. It's still pretty though.

Here's a demo I made with Diane Monroe for an agent. I love this tune.

Oh man... he's got it!!! :o)

Ok, so I just checked my gig calendar and untill halfway through november I counted a total of 66 gigs!! Oh man this is crazy! But guess what, I'm playing vibes in almost al of those gigs!

I really feel bad not being on the site that much lately, but I'm just so f'n busy... Unfortunately it's not all standards/jazz stuff so I have to try to work on that when I get time in between....

Anyway, I'll keep you guys posted on stuff.

Just me practicing lines with some Ableton loops I made.

Updated: with take 2.

Updated again with play along. 4 Choruses in F with an added effect on the drums in choruses 3 & 4.

So the TOTM I think has proven to be a little difficult for some of you guys. Seems like a couple people are keeping up, but not more than that.

That's ok, even if this gets you to really learn the melodies or the chords, it's a good thing. I think what's important here is that you guys know that it takes work to do this, and keep all that in mind. Then just do the best you can when it comes to learning tunes.

I'm going to wrap this one up in the next lesson and then we can decide whether to pick another tune or not.

Any thoughts?

Today I was trying to commit Girl from Ipanema to memory and realized that, for vibes, the key of Bb is much better than the key of F.
