102 Fahrenheit

102 Fahrenheit - Copyright © & ℗ 2019 Bob Lewis ASCAP
A meditation on the inevitability of the Texas summer.

Style is _JZFNKHS.STY
RealTracks in style: ~1433:Bass, Electric, JazzFunkGroovin Ev16 110
RealTracks in style: ~1437:Piano, Electric, Rhythm JazzFunkGroovin Ev16 110
RealTracks in style: ~1435:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm JazzFunkGroovinChords Ev16 110
RealTracks in style: 2110:Horn Section, Background, R&B Ev16 110
RealTracks in song: ~1441:Sax, Alto, Soloist JazzFunkGroovin Ev16 110
RealDrums in song: JazzFunkGroovin^1-a:HHSdStk, b:HHSnr

All BIAB - no actual live work on here at all.

The objective was to demonstrate scale-wise ascending motion of harmony.

Maybe I'll re-voice this thing for recorders and lutes and basso continuo ...

What a tune! Love the groove and your use of the RealTracks here. It flows incredibly well, and has some serious attitude to it. Definitely a strong showcase of Band-in-a-Box's capabilities. The mix is top notch too.

You should be proud of this one - thanks for sharing smile

Hi Bob,

Always love some well-done Jazz! And this is, indeed, well done. I lived in San Antonio 6 years back in the 70s - I can attest to the 102!

Nicely conceived and performed. Sounding terrific. Great stuff!

Best to you ...

Alan

Hello Mr.BobaLew, this was wonderful! Fantastic selection of instruments here and the chord progression is very nice. The guitars are very warm and the saxophone really does help piece it all together. Thanks for sharing!

I would say you accomplished you objective...
Those who are reluctant to use Biab should notice the power of this program.

Floyd, Deryk, Alan, Joe, Jim -

I thank you and BIAB serno: 8022-0705-5279-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx thanks you!

This is SOOO far out of my preferred 'style' and rather odd feeling since there was no direct human input. (For the record the preferred style is 'eclectic' though that doesn't seem to be a choice - PGMusic please note!)

This was a fun, one-off project for me, but I am back on my meds and working my anatomy off on more usual (i.e., remunerative) projects for the next several months.

My preference is to respond individually to the individual comments - please forgive the 'form letter' today, I'm just that busy!

Bob,
A refreshing arrangement! I think some scat would go very nicely with it.

Thank you for sharing.

Misha.
