It just got me in a winter state of mind !:)) http://app.box.com/s/2klg02b02i6u4ymi4yvrI am indebted to Dean Clark who graciously plays the intermediate guitarsolo (thanks Dean) ! Style: SJAZZBL STY Smooth Jazz Ballad (65 RS) Instruments in style: 908 Electric Bass 910 Electric Piano Drums: Realdrums Smooth Jazz Ballad Sn Ride Soloist: 5 Electric Piano And here are the lyrics: WINTER STATE OF MIND (by Dani) Bluer than blue, I sit alone here without you looking out of my window, still snow keeps piling up out on the sill thinking of you, my love and how you fare up on the clouds above thinking thoughts of another kind I´m in a winter state of ……… I´m in a winter state of mind I´m in a winter state of mind Outside it is cold, far below zero c I´m told I will stay inside my room and hide all in vain from all the pain No cure in sight, but let us hope it goes allright thinking thoughts of another kind I´m in a winter state of ……… I´m in a winter state of mind I´m in a winter state of mind solo Bluer than blue, I sit alone here without you looking out of my window, still snow keeps piling up out on the sill thinking of you, my love and how you fare up on the clouds above thinking thoughts of another kind I´m in a winter state of ……… I´m in a winter state of mind I´m in a winter state of mind Cheers Dani

Dani, good song. I think this is one of your best. Great mix and I love the vocal. When you hit those low notes I feel it all the way down to my toes!

Hi Dani,
very interesting chord progression and very well sung. I can't help: for me the guitar solo is totally out of tune. On purpose?

Thank you Trevor for your most kind words ! You are right, writing, or rather playing around with chords trying to construct something rational has really helped me back on track again !:))
Cheers Dani

Hi Dani...
This is a great tune! So soft and mellow. It reminds me of something Mel Torme might have written and recorded. All the instruments are so mellow and laid back. And your voice is perfect for this ... exceptionally good! We're still smiling a while after we listened. Very, very nice! Thanks for a super nice listen.

Guenter you rascal !!!
You just had to notice my electric 12-string out of tune. Well, there's a perfectly sound explanation for that:
.....''''''''.....'.................................It IS out of tune!!
because the strings (2 x 0.08 to 2 X ?) are shot and the last time I tried to re-string it myself I wound up cutting my fingers to ribbons with the ends of the strings.
Maybe I can talk Dani into reposting after I freshen the thing up?
However, thanks for the instructive comment - the Forum can always use more of these, because in the end they lead to improvement.
Dean
