Music and Massage


The atmosphere you create during massage or bodywork, can add a lot to the experience. I often play music during treatments. Sometimes I choose the music and ask if the client likes it...

...While Listening To Myself In The Mirror...

... I am preparing to record our second album,
I can't help but wonder about all of my mentors...
did they feel any different than I do?
I want to evolve... I want to create...
I want to communicate... I don't want to just slug it out.

Drunks Say The Darnedest Things... (Thanks, Mr. Linkletter)


Once during a set break, one of the "clientele" came up to me and slurred politely, "Mind If I ask you a question"?.


I could see he was looking at the gold bars on my vibraphone.
"Go ahead" sez I.

"Are those real gold bars?" he asks.

Not being in the mood I sez, "ya- see those spaces, those are the ones that I sold when things got rough".

I mean, I mean every note I play...


Sometimes, I play a few notes and, sometimes I play a lot of notes. It took many years but I can definitely now say: I MEAN EACH & EVERY NOTE I PLAY! (sorry, I didn't mean to scream. I just get excited).

...While Listening To Myself In The Mirror...

...lately, while I listen to my playbacks, I feel like a vibraphone player imitating a piano player imitating a guitar player. Sometimes, I wish I could bath in it!

My Approach To Vibraphone Is Like Keith Moon's Approach Was To Drumming

AND I believe Jazz to be the modern classical art form. It demands an intellectual approach and it reflects our times. However, you can't fake it.
