Jimbo 88 Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 I wrote this as an exercise... and I kinda wanted to show my daughter you don't always have write so many words and notes. Having too much fun with this, I think I'm going to have do this live. For those who read music, I'm attaching the lead sheet.

bats brew Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 yep, it's very reminiscent of dr john's style... i like the harmonica, but i think a guitar solo would be stronger, jazz sound, with some nice bends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhonoBrainer Posted March 6, 2022 Share Posted March 6, 2022 I like the room sound, I don't know how much was live recorded but it sounds like all elements are nicely presented in the same space, and your vocal "yeah's" and scats and such are a nice touch! Bass is tre cool and the piano ain't half bad either! cheers, -Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo 88 Posted March 7, 2022 Author Share Posted March 7, 2022 (edited) Hey Guys --thanks for all the cool comments! On 3/4/2022 at 1:39 PM, mark skinner said: Great writing and Very well performed. I Really liked the Bass. It sounded Authentic if it was a virtual instrument , it was a Nice one .. mark The bass is Trillian. I find that good Chord voicing and leading makes Bass lines easy to sound real.

It sounds very much like the piano in my living room:) https://www.audiolatry.com/upright-piano/ The Melodica and Vocals are recorded in my basement studio and I'm using Breverb2, which was free many years ago to Sonar.

I forgot to mention...I added those as a tribute my father who used to love the piano player Errol Garner. Garner can always be heard grunting and groaning thru out his recordings.
