Johnbee58 Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Jazzy & bluesy. Using EZ Drummer 3 Bright kit for the drums and Garritan Jazz & Big Band for the brass. Hope you enjoy. https://www.soundclick.com/music/songInfo.cfm?songID=14468875 ?John B 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Came close but managed to keep healthy so far. Your compliment is of the highest order. I love the Nightfly! ?JB 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjornpdx Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 First impression for me was Tony Bennett backed up with a Big Band. Really. This is a different vocal approach for you John, like there's more flair or pizzazz, something like that. Whatever, I think it works very well. Great lyrics and orchestration as usual. -Bjorn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markno999 Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 John, Good track, you did a fantastic job on the backing track too. Like the transitions from blues to a jazzy swing style. Horns are convincing too which is no easy task. Well done. Regards 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ABull Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Hey John, I didn't hear any Fagen in this but it's a good song and your arrangement & mixing are very nice -- Allan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeringAmps Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 I think maybe this is your strongest tune John. Very well done, solid in every respect. ?'s ? t tiny, tiny little crit; the first Can, in the first Can you see your way... , is barely audible. Too much de-es on the C? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
