I gave Patty Francechy and Mike Pinto a tour of our studios. We did a little greeting for you guys. This was after the vibe hang. We had so much fun today!!!

My own effort on the Beautiful Love Rhythm Track. Forgive me Milt, wherever you are !

A bass+dms track on Beautiful Love. It was made in a hurry, but I think it's playable. The track includes a drum chorus.

I noticed that no one has brought up Monte Croft on this website.

Here is a quick S. Yanow Bio for him:

Wow!

Nadja just put on line this new video from JazzBaltica summer 2008.

Joe Locke and Sticks and String re-visiting Saturn's Child... with Rosario Giuliani as guest... Oh man!

I love the way that video was recorded, with close shots of Joe's grip (beginning) and of other musicians in there thoughtfull playings.

A huge solo from Rosario (3'48), who quite often plays with Joe, but whom we don't see enough on videos.

I also truly dug the vibes/guitar double voice speach, especially from 6'10... wow!

Oh... man...

Enjoy! :o)

Not Vibes Related but Music Related big time!

I love this video! I think Pat Methany is the Aaron Copeland of jazz.

Here are some etudes on the tune Cherokee.

Here's the Cherokee etude. It's sooo hard, I'm burnt out on it! I give up.

I wanted to play a bass line over a head. You can't do it over a solo really, but over a head I thought it was possible. I think it's a technique that can be interspersed in a tune or solo. I don't think anyone should strive to play a baseline through a whole tune.
