[@jessie9397]

I'm not a jazz musician, I play classical percussion. But watching your videos helped me teach myself jazz vibes and I got into my universities jazz ensembles!

[@TimCollinsVibes]

That's great! Glad to hear it.

[@IRACEMABABU]

What a treat ! Bravissimo ! That's transcribing and playing. And you put in your own feeling, it sounds as if it was a solo of yours. Congrats. Can't wait for the following video.

[@gabrielmontero8505]

I'm looking for that song a lot because I'm doing an audition with her, and you're one of the best vibist I've ever seen

[@neumusic]

[@lucakirpach]

OMG THANKS YOU SO MUCH

[@ifincstudios]

Man I'm so glad you did this one. I been wanting to cover this on set but alot of the Chic versions move around the meter. I am a huge fan so I can't wait to cover this.

[@glennlopez6772]

Thanks! You have absorbed the Latin or Spanish soul of the melody. I don't claim to have the musical terminology, its just that I feel it this way. All the best!

[@TimCollinsVibes]

Thanks!

[@miauladepercusion]

[@aumipe2295]

Can I get the piano sheet music?

[@richiewu7964]

hey Tim. I've been watching your videos for long time. really enjoy your playing. very great sound on Vibes. I am jazz drummer now but I really wanna start to learn vibes haha. could you give me any advice for buying a vibes? I know it's not cheap to buy one? your vibe sounds very nice (of course by your playing!!) but I think its not cheap right? any recommendation for beginners? not really expensive but sounds kind good? thanks !!

[@harmolivier4544]

The lick at 0:19

[@tomasbocko8464]

Unbelievable.. great... how many hours it took to practice this ? :O

[@lucakirpach]

could we get some sorts of music sheets? are there any available anywhere?, great work btw

[@TimCollinsVibes]

Check the description

[@nicholasmartinez2424]

Wow! Do you have a written transcription available on your website? I’d love to look at it. Thanks for your videos, they are extremely helpful and appreciated!

[@TimCollinsVibes]

I will put one up with the next video :)

[@jeppehm]

Tim Collins Just found your channel and i agree. I would love to see it too! Do you know how long we will have to wait for your next video?;)

[@TimCollinsVibes]

Hehe I have been pretty off my schedule lately, but the next one should come tonight. The music is now available from my site for free :)

[@billg1817]

I noticed that another video of yours diving into Gary's solo ideas was missing, was it deleted or sth? lol

[@TimCollinsVibes]

I didn’t think it was that good so it’s not public anymore hehe

[@FrancescoPinetti]

Yeah! How many takes to grab it? Really awesome ;-) Bravo

[@TimCollinsVibes]

I think the vibes part was 3 or 4.. the piano part was a pain- it took me like 8 or 9...

[@Jake-iv8mr]

🤘

[@EliPorter456]

Why 2 mallet?

[@TimCollinsVibes]

Eh, I just felt like it.. my mallets are pretty heavy and it was just easier :)

[@no0ne361]

i'm watching better your vibraphone and it's beautifull.... my dream is to buy a musser's vibraphone (sorry if i mistake some words but my english isn't good)

[@TimCollinsVibes]

No worries ;) Yeah, I've played on lots of different instruments, and as far as I know today there's still nothing that compares to the Musser. The Yamaha and Adams models are good, but still don't match up. I've heard good things about the new Malletech vibraphone, but until I play one I'm sticking with Musser all the way.

[@thierrylangarchive741]

Sounds great! One of the best tunes by Chick (in my personal opinion of course). Really love that perfomance (Jazzwoche Burghausen, Germany, 2011): kzbin.info/www/bejne/jIO2m3-hn5WJg9k.
