Jazzed Up is based on BiaB’s Jazz Fours Style. The style parts were slightly modified. The bass was reworked during its lead parts. The drum and the E-Piano solo were generated by BiaB and kept as is. I played the guitar part and wind controller parts, sax and trumpet.

I hope you like it for what it is.

Nice cool progression Mario. It works. Everytime I hear a jazz track it inspires me to do a jazz tune for my next track. But then country steps in and knocks it out once again! One of these days soon, jazz is gonna win out, I just know it!

Great stuff here!

Very nice, Mario! This kind of reminds me of one of those police/detective movies from the 70's or 80's, maybe a chase or running scene. Very cool. I think you have gotten a handle on that wind controller now! It all sounds good. Keep it up!

Nice jazz guitar. Those wind controlled instruments are very cool. I enjoyed the arrangement with the drum and bass solos. Good job. Tom

Hey Mario,

Oh my goodness! This is a real testament to your musical versatility. Very "Jazzed Up" indeed! You've definitely become a master of the wind controller now. You've sure raised the bar a few notches with this one :0

Loved it.

All the best,
Noel

I think I've lost you to that great jazz club in the movie, StarWars...

I just visualized you "gettin' high" and Star Trekkin'"...

AND YES, WE'VE COME A LONG WAY FROM LES PAUL'S 8-TRACK!

Thanx Noel, Gdaddy and Tommyc for listening and the very kind comments.

Noel – no not a master yet but I’m trying.

Gdaddy – my wife also thinks I belong in that Star Wars club!!!!!!

Tommyc – It’s never too late to start! I’m 65 and I’ve had the EWI-USB wind controller for only a couple of years now. If I can do it so can you!

PS – sorry for the late response as I’ve been landscaping, getting my music computer up and running again after a crash and on vacation/holiday for a week.

Yo Mario!

Ya did good, I get a little West Side Story out of it, in fact I think I may start a rumble tonight! That wind controller is really coming along and of course your guitar chops are always right up there my friend, I have always loved your tone.

Best To Ya,
