Hi all,
Here are Chick Corea and Gary Burton performing a tune of Chick's, "Armando's Rhumba".  Chick starts out on vibraphone, which is not even his primary instrument.  Gary joins in and they hit the main theme at 2:14.  Man, are they having fun!  I think what Gary Burton can do with two mallets is amazing, but two in each hand is completely incomprehensible. 



All best,
Johnm

Now that is some vibra-zaniness! I love it!

I came across this young lady via the Fretboard Journal chanel recently.  I think her earlier material was very bluegrassy / country (too much of the latter for my tastes) but her most recent album is beautiful, broader and more sophisitcated.

Someone mentioned Dennis Lichtman in another thread, and not knowing who he was, I did a quick search and found his website with this video. It's fun to watch if you like New Orleans-style jazz, clarinets, or horses:



If you prefer, you can watch it on his website, better resolution.

That "someone" is your ol' buddy Stuart, Lindy. Dennis has been out here a couple of times, playing with Greg Ruby's band, The Rhythm Runners. When I saw them last May at Washington Hall in Seattle, I got there early and was sitting on the front porch when Dennis and Charlie Halloran walked up with their mitts--they had been playing catch in Wisteria Park, which isn't a bad way to warm up for a gig. Charlie is a trombone player based in NOLA. Paul de Barros also came by. Paul is the author of Jackson Street After Hours: The Roots of Jazz in Seattle. Greg first learned of Frank Waldron from reading Paul's book.

After the initial Syncopated Classic CD release and tour, Greg put together a folio that contains reproductions of the original sheet music as well as a book with the music in updated form and an expanded essay about Frank Waldron by Paul and Greg that includes photos. Greg also had Jacob Zimmerman and Dalton Ridenhour record the music in the way it might have sounded at Frank Waldron's place back in the day.

Hi all,
The late George Jones, with "Book of Memories".  I sure love this.

Hi all,
Some of the most enjoyable things on YouTube for me in recent years have been the videos posted by the amazing young Finnish Jazz guitarist, Teemu Viinikainen.  Here is his version of Ray Charles' hit, "Crying Time":

 

Here is his play-along with Kenny Kirland's piano solo on "When The World Is Running Down".  If I didn't see him do it, I would never have believed it possible.  It isn't just the execution, it's the memory involved, too!  And the industry--I don't care how gifted you are, you can't play like that without working and working for years.



All best,
Johnm

Old Crow Medicine Show was one of the most exciting modern old timey bands of recent years, and Willie Watson provided the high harmonies that lifted them out of the mud.

Here he is feeling a little awkward next to the delighted scandinavian duo, My Bubba. Until he starts to sing.

Celso Machado, a wonderful Brazilian guitarist, lives a couple of hours north of me in Vancouver, B.C., so I've had the good fortune of seeing him several times. For a long time I did not know that he has an equally talented brother named Filo. Here's Filo with his grandson, looks to be around 11 or 12 in this vid, obviously blessed with Machado guitar genes.
