“In him you have a man with vision who is able to realize the future today.”

– Benny Golson, Jazz Legend

Three years ago, I made the decision to retire aft Three years ago, I made the decision to retire after 27 years as a public school band director to fully pursue my dream of taking my jazz career to the next level. My goal was to write, produce, and release a world-class jazz album—and now, four weeks after Vibe Check came out, the response has been nothing but positive. That means everything to me. This business can be tough, with plenty of rejection and the occasional “jewel” gig, but it’s not about the gigs, awards, or magazine covers. It’s about the music—always. Paul Abella’s review captures exactly what I strive for: Joe Baione – Vibe Check (self-released) “Vibraphonist Joe Baione has released a nice new album called Vibe Check. A tongue-in-cheek album title that nonetheless gets the point across, that sure, this album is led by a vibraphonist, but he’s also trying to set a mood throughout. I think he succeeds. Of course, part of that equation is surrounding yourself with the people who can do the job. Surely, we all know that Duane Eubanks is a world-class trumpeter, and Jerome Jennings is an up-and-coming drummer who will be getting all of the accolades and attention he deserves in the next few years. Pianist Toru Dodo, if this album is any indication, will be getting plenty of recognition soon enough, and bassist Marco Panascia does a fine job of holding down the groove throughout. “The Journey,” “Lost Control,” “The Chase,” “Faith is My Destiny,” “Quiet Ways” and “Lulu” are all cut from the same cloth of sounding like extremely well-played swingin’ 60s bachelor pad music. Which is fun, cheeky, and ultimately lovable. The Jazz world could do well with more music played with a wink and a nod and a big smile. That’s why Joe Baione passes this Vibe Check.” —Paul Abella, Music Director, WDCB.org, Chicago Hearing that my music resonates in this way makes every challenge worthwhile. The journey continues!
