NOTA: the live video I had attached has been removed... I'm so sorry about that. So I relink the studio version... beautiful too.

Oh man...

I had just started discovering Stefon Harris' music last week. And today Joe Doubleday linked this vid on his Face Book... This tune is already one of my fav on studio...

Oh man check out the intro, and his two mallet solo... (together of course with his compadres great interpretations!)

Oh man... oh man... the power of two mallets and a big soul!

Check out some of Zappa's true genius with the Black Page.

Chinese translation for Chinese students
C為起音的第五級Melodic scale, (C mixolydian b6)
如果把C這個音當作是一個Melodic scale 的第五個音，那往下推（完全五度），可以得到F。
所以你可以把C mixolydian b6音階想成F melodic scale, 但是從C音開始打。
這個音階為，C,D,E,F,G,Ab,Bb,C (跟大調音階相比，降六音，降七音)
Tony是示範mixolydian b6和mixolydian 的差別。
Ab, G , E, C這是 tony最愛的Lick（樂句）之一，也有經過這個音階。
來聽聽tony影片最後把這個lick演奏在dominant 和絃上。

跟Lydian dominant scale比，這個音階有還原四音（Natural 4th）、降六音。

Hey everybody,

Ed played a great gig with his quartet at the Sahara Club on April 6th. This video is of Jitterbug Waltz by Fats Waller. You can follow the link to youtube and see part 2 of this tune as well as a few of the other tunes from the show.

Enjoy!

Tony realized that Jay Messina just joined us as subscriber. Jay has a great career as sound engineer for the greatest musicians all around the world... We'd love to know more, about his past, and his history with the vibraphone too!

Jay, please tell us!!

And welcom on Vibesworkshop!

Hi Guys,

Big hello from Australia!

This is a recording of me and my friend at uni playing in a chamber music concert. We only played this one tune, walked in straight from work with no warm up, no sound check so there are a few fuzzy bits...but I was mostly happy with the performance.

I'd also like to say, we performed this tune because we love it. Ed is a fantastic asset to this site and music in general and writes some fantastic tunes so check them out if you haven't!!!!!!

It would be great if you could take the time to listen and drop a comment good or bad!

Cheers,

So my car stereo blew a few months ago. I bought another one a few months ago thinking it replace it myself. I tried but no sound. So I got my son an his Drexel buddies over figuring 30 grand a year, they can get it working. Nothing.

So finally I went to Best Buy and had them put it in only to find out that the problem was not the radio but the speakers. Ok, 400 dollars later (and I'm broke right now) I have a new car stereo and speakers.
