Being a guitar player it's a game changer for me.  I can play chord progressions that would be way to much work for me to figure out on the keyboard and even be able to play on the keyboard.  And of course all the cool sounds that come with access to synths, pianos and organs.  The tech is not perfect,  I usually get some glitchy notes that are easy to fix with midi editing, I wouldn't want to use it live (a lot o people to though).  The midi pickup set up is crucial, if everything isn't perfect it won't work right, there's also a bunch of software adjustments that make a big difference in how it works. 

Using the fishman midi guitar to play the piano and vibes on this one. Trying for the Jobim sound of the 60's.

It sounds nice Barry. I still think maybe real harmony vocals would sound good. But it like it as is too. 

I know what you're saying, the guitar and keys fight with each other a bit. I thought about just having the keyboard only on that part. Thanks for the comments.

Thanks Andy. If I upped the tempo I'd have to re-record everything, I don't think I want to start over. Driving the amp more that would be easy, I'll check that out.

Thanks!

Thanks for the kind words. I usually feel like my songs are too long, I know that I have a short attention span when it comes to songs. There needs to be some pretty interesting stuff going on to get me past 4 minutes. I'm no shredder so I feel like I  might run out of good ideas pretty quickly. If only I had Andy Timmons or Steve Lukather's gifts!

I always thought that the backup arrangements really made the Eagles songs special. The Beatles were pretty good at it too.

Nice melody. I like the bass line. Good guitar playing too. I was imagining some back ground singers doing some Ooo's or ahh's on or near the chorus. 

Really nice, there's a lot going, many layers. Sounds great.  The guitar is pretty subtle.

Good work, would be a good movie score.

Sounds nice, all the instruments compliment each other.

Wow, that's beautiful. Sounds like a movie score.

The basic groove is really nice. A change up of some kind would sound good, maybe a piano solo could make it great.

Another catchy song. I like the piano's, kind of reminds me of early Elton John style.

Lot's of interesting layers going on. Good playing.

Thanks man. I've never tried the burstbuckers. My wife's les paul has 490t and something else but they sound pretty good , hotter than mine though.  Hate the weight of that guitar, don't like playing it. It was the only guitar we have that the fishman midi pickup fit so unfortunately I do have to play it.

Thanks guys!

I listened on Eris 3.5's lol sounded really good.  I can listen to this type of jazz all day long and never tire of it.  What guitar are you using?

It's my much loved Gibson es135 with 57 paf's and using Biasfx2 plugin for the amp. Thanks for checking it out. 

Thanks for listening.  Mine are on wood stands pretty much at head level when I'm seated.  The issue may be with the sound in the car. I don't usually listen to my Bluetooth phone in the car. I'm going to put my tunes on the USB drive that I usually use in there and see how it sounds. 

Thanks Lynn, suggestions are welcome.  I will admit to a degree of laziness with the drum programming , not a drummer either. I may mess around with it and see of i can improve it or make it worse...

Oh wow those are some expensive headphones, they must be nice. I'm to much of a cheapskate for those.

Thanks guys! I've been having a hard time telling if the bass is good or not. I listen on my monitors, headphones and then bluetooth headphones and then in my car. The car is the only thing with a subwoofer and my mix sounds bassy in there. I may need a sub to go with my Event 20/20's.

My latest jazz rock funk fusion tune.
