Well,

This may be my last post before 2016, and I thought I would go out with some Jazz. My songwriting colleague and band member buddy is Jon Healey, who is a columnist for the LA Times and who also blogs about music and art for them. Jon is blowing sax on this one, and the bed is basically just the old "Jazz Fred" style with some embellishments. I was trying to conjure up the days of Sinatra and we were just having some fun.

This is from an album we will release in early 2016 called Heaven Knows. The name of our group is The Swinging Verves.

Happy Holidays to everyone.

Jazz Baby Yeah!! Oh behave!!!!

I love jazz, and I really enjoyed these lyrics!

As I was listening, I started to imagine a female either singing as a duet with your or just for some background vocals! That's my bias when it comes to jazz music, though. It's like, you could eat the Oreo by itself, but it usually is best with milk. haha!

Good job!

Fun song David!! Nice parody on the Sinatra thing. I'm a huge fan of Old Blue Eyes. No one could do it like he could. This is really nicely put together. Good job on the arrangement/production. Enjoyed it!! Take care. Greg

Cool song David. It is very reminiscent of the Sinatra era and you guys did a good job of capturing that time. Great sax, vocals and lyrics.

Nicely arranged and produced. We listen to our share of
Ella and Frank and Tony so we slid right into this style.

As Sonny alluded to you guys really did capture the vibe!

Thanks for the journey.
