Hi fellows; I went to a Jazz concert the past Friday featuring the Dan Miller-Lew DelGatto quintet and had a great time, all good musicians. I got inspired by their repertoire of mostly standards with Carla Cook on vocals. So even though the choice of instruments are not exactly the same I came up with this tune: Intimate Approach
Stats are:Style is _J085_AS.STY (Night Jazz Ballad Quartet(85 RS))
SoloistCustom Synth is Synth/Plugin Loaded, Addictive Keys piano.

RealTracks in style: ~~732:Bass, Acoustic, Jazz Ballad Sw 060
RealTracks in style: ~~742:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm Jazz Ballad Sw 060
RealTracks in style: ~~937:Guitar, Acoustic, Rhythm JazzBalladFreddie Sw 060
RealTracks in song: ~1502:Guitar, Electric, Soloist JazzSwing Sw 060
RealDrums in Song: JazzSwingLewis^02-a:Brushes, Snare , b:RdHiHat

Hope you all like it. Comments welcomed as usual.

Mike B.

Mike,
The applause makes it like an intimate concert. But the real star is your excellent guitar play. The production is top notch!

Mike, loved to applause at the intro. Hard to believe it wasn't played to a live audience. Smooth, laid-back, masterfully put together. Another top one!

Cool is the word, and soooo relaxed.
Reminds me of jazz/coffee bars in the 60's. Cheers.

What can I say after all these comments from all of you? Maybe a little Elvis impersonation, "Thank you, thank you, thank you very much!"

Later
