Thanks to multiple requests for Watermelon Man, I decided to put this video together - it's a little different from my other 'etude' videos. I transcribed Herbie's original solo (from his 1962 album "Takin' Off") and played it on the vibraphone.
It reminded me of things I learned when I was transcribing solos from other instruments - how do you adapt something to the vibraphone that was originally played on another instrument?
I also break down and analyze the elements of Herbie's piano solo and show how I transferred it to the vibraphone.
