This old thing was recorded around 1973 using a low end Sony reel to reel and 2 very inexpensive mics, so I apologize for the audio quality. Still, the sound is clear enough to hear the 2 instruments pretty well. I remember having to practice the page turns (there were 3) just as hard as practicing the lines. The bass player was playing a Hofner Beatle bass - remember that? Vibes and Electric Bass doing Bach is weird, but I was into weird back then.

Hey everyone,
I haven't posted in a while but I'm really going to try and start posting more. This is Joe's solo on Verrazano Moon from his gig at Dizzy's on Jan. 30th, 2010. This was definitely a big challenge for me but I had such a great time working on it.
Thanks!

I met Gloria through Randy Sutin. Gloria might be the only radio DJ in the world with an all vibes show!!!

Anyway Gloria, a "Who Is" is a post where you can tell us about yourself. So I hope you don't mind Gloria but tell us about yourself and your radio show!!

My grandfather once told me that there were two kinds of people: those who do the work and those who take the credit. He told me to try to be in the first group; there was much less competition.

Tell me how long you've been playing. Are you in college?

I'm just curious as to how long you guys have been playing? Who's in college, etc.

Hello Everyone,

This is a six mallet marimba solo. This video is from a tour about 2.5 months ago. This show was at 11am, and I did not feel the greatest, staying up all night before, typical tour! We were abit late getting to the place so we only had 25minutes to unpack. No time for warmup of any sort.

I find tours very interesting. You have to play your best no matter how you feel warm or cold. I think it's a very good experience touring it really forces you to be on your A game.

Things aren't always what they look like.

Please don't censor this Marie!

Look at the chords and then look at the voicings. Some of the voicings look like other chords, but they're functioning as something else. (This is to go along with a lesson I'm posting)
