Thanks for listening. This one is a little different in that it acknowleged the flow of John Jarvis's runs and fills as a melodies that stand by themselves, if I'm explaining that right. It is a recognition of John's unique genius that was a while in coming, a departure from my usual understanding. In practice, what that means is listening to the piano and attempting to reinforce the melody line as oppose to stuffing my own licks in wherever I could find an opening. A little rough around the edges but a concept for me.

Cool, Ed. Where'd you find that out of tune honky-tonk piano. Man, I love this feel and it's so well played. Very uplifting.

Thanks, David & Marty.
Marty, that is John Jarvis real track, Bent Piano Slow Country Swing 85. John has participated in a handful of BIAB styles, most of which also include Real Track favorite guitarist Brent Mason.

Thanks, Moto and Floyd.
Really, I thought you guys were going to say, "Get outta here with that!" Though I have never underestimated the ears around this forum. Hey, it came about by just listening to the way John Jarvis turns his accents and fills into melody lines that stand on their own. Wouldn't it be nice if he could bottle it?

Nice. It has an Old Time Gospel Hour feel to it and it's crying out for some lyrics and vocals (hint, hint). Maybe do one in time for Christmas?

Thanks, friends. This is one of those breakthrough tracks that comes about following a few of those unconscious conversations with ourselves we all have from time to time, some more frequently than others. Yeah, jpt, I auditioned a few hooks but just can't quite nail the feeling I want to express. One thing composing it accomp[lished, though, was to open some new paths to guitar playin'

Thanks, Scott and Peter. One of those things where one day I thought I'd try letting the piano track run full and seeing if I could play along with it. Standard task for a real musician.
For me? Well, you hear it.
