    Theme music for "Elevator That's Moving Worryingly Fast, And Yet Somehow Still Takes Multiple Minutes To Get You To Your Floor".
    I like this a lot.

    I love the sound of the Vibraphone. Another reason why I love Jazz music.

    Most of the comments seem to be negative which means there are a lot of stupid people . The vibraphone is one of the best-sounding instruments out there and it isn't easy to play. This guy is good at it. So to all the nay-sayers, just go back down in the basement and eat your Cheetos that the government paid for.

      You are correct sir. I haven't seen a negative comment here that isn't drowning in ignorance. Elevator music? Weather channel? Get a little musical education people!

      it is, I love the vibes......I hope there is available here in the Phils. it is quite difficult to find one. Many years ago, Yamaha sells them here, but not anymore. I am dying to get one for my orchestra!

      @Rurattee 4 года назад +3

      As someone who plays vibes, my only complaints would be that sometimes his rhythm feels a little "lost," (never off, just a little hesitant) but it is an improv solo so that's pretty expected unless you're Gary Burton, and sometimes I think he might playing too much, too quickly, which leads to part of the song sounding a little crowded. Overall though it's amazing to be able to improv as consistently as he was for as long as he did.

    This player is good, nice version of Blue Bossa. Vibraphone is the most orgasmic instrument, a therapy for stress, vibraphone is the Champagne of jazz and this music is not made for the dummies.

  • @bartstewart8644

    I want one of these. If you're really into the vibraphone look up Lionel Hampton. He was the king.

    • @talbotvanman

    • @frankfrank7921
      @frankfrank7921 7 лет назад +2

      Lionel Hampton, though the father of all we vibes players, was a bit heavy handed and mired in the swing era. The deftest touch ever on up-tempo and (especially) ballads was Milt Jackson. If it's monster four mallet technique you want seek out Gary Burton. The best vibist no one remembers is Teddy Charles. Also, you must hear Bobby Hutcherson. These guys are essential listening! Then, you can move on to the second and third tier talents.

    lemme set the scene i have in my head rn while listening to this:
    it's, like, 11am, and you're in a department store, not exactly sure what you're looking for.
    the shelves are completely empty, in fact, the whole store has nothing but empty shelves and racks...but, there's a single frying pan hanging on one of the hooks.
    you've completed zoned out while staring at the pan. this is playing in the background
    you're ok, you've just kinda lost yourself. this music took you away.

    I love the vibraphone when I listen to jazz. It's one of those instruments, like the Hammond Organ, that gives life to a song.
    It seems to me very complex to be played with those two mallets per hand. Is it that difficult?
