One of my favorites of yours. I assume you used a Sax for the breath controller? The breaths were perfect and the Sax sounded like a real Sax player.
I truly loved the music AND ambiance that came through.
I could see Dean, Sammy and Frank walking into a Palm Springs restaurant while this played.
Trax Thanx Trax, I'm glad you liked it. Yes, the Rat Pack came in a number of times while we were playing and in fact joined us on stage a couple of times

Hi, Mario. This perfectly fits the title. Kudos on the convincing sax performance!  Thanx David, especially for that sax performance comment. I am trying to improve my emulations.

Mike B. Thanx Mike. Just remember that it is 5 o'clock somewhere! But I'm like you in that if I have a beer it has to be after 5 PM.

Definitely has a late swing/big band era feel with the sax tone. I've not tried walking in waltz time...I'll give it a go/ Love your guitar part too.

Oh, yeah, I do that all the time, Mario. Slow Walk, Fast Walk, and all of trhe styles in between. Music moves us. I really like the feel on this one. This is weird... I got up and walked around as I listened. Even now I am typing slowing. As I walk through the lobby, I slowly peek into the lounge and see the sax guy leaning on a PA speaker on the side of the stage.

My so called fast walk is about 1/2 the speed of my 40's fast walk. In fact my kids call my fast walk their slow walk! Thanx for the smiles!

Lovely and nostalgic. Sax and guitar are exquisitely woven into the upper layer of the instrumentation. It makes me want to dance with a lady with a bouffant do. If I were in a Holiday Inn in 1963, I would have been a babe in my mother's arms.

That my friend is one sweet production. Your use of the breath controller is really paying off. Laid back vibe, perfect setup in the introductory comments and a fine mix. Well done, Tom

Well done, Tom Thanx so much Tom for this very kind review. I like using the breath controller over the wind controller as I have more control over the nuances.

Hey Mario, Torrey has it right . . . hypnotic indeed. Nobody here has your style, love that sax  Great job.
https://soundcloud.com/user-646279677BiaB 2025 Windows For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

Bud said that in 1963 he’d be walking in the beach pavilion at Panama City for some rock ’n roll. However we love Jazz and most of its variants and on top of that we love the sax. So yeah we would head right into the lounge to hear this band. You never cease to amaze with these productions. Smooth as butter but always engaging from the get go through the last note. Great performances and we enjoyed it! J&B
