"Chris37"...

I have listened to both versions of "Always Looking For The Blue Note".

The second version featuring Guillaume's harmonica is soaked with the sweat of the "blues" in the classic sense. Guillaume performs as though he harvested his unique sound out of the soil. It is gritty, wailing, and raw.

But, then again, the version featuring the oboe solo is something else entirely. What better choice could there be of an instrument from a typically orchestral setting to augment the feel of an earthy blues number than the wistful, pining and poignant sound of an oboe?

It was a daring choice to make, "Chris37", and it had the effect of transforming a weary, lonesome-sounding blues song into a ballad that reaches for the light of...???

You've created something distinctive and unexpected with "Always Looking for the Blue Note".

What's next?

Sincerely,

LOREN
