I prefer to add vibrato like a singers adds tremolo to a note.. Play the note clean..Introduce the vibrato and widen it with slightly more attack as the note sustains.
To see what I'm getting at, listen to the vocalist on the opening note of Handel's largo.
Obviously it's not quite the same, but based on this technique. This gives your notes a more vocal quality.

Phil, its a different effect - delightful, but she's not conveying putting somebody in the ground, I'm guessing. :-)
And don't give me that "To fast.. Too soon..Too intense" gobshite, its life-changing is what it is.
Seriously - Kossoff's playing seems to bypass my head and go straight to my heart - but this is pretty early stuff, maybe you'd get on better with his later vibrato - Come together in the Morning or Time Away style?
