This takes us back to the days when the piano played the lead while the guitarist strummed softly in the background.

BiaB style = Nitefall - Easy Jazz Swing ala R. I kept the drums, the walking bass but deleted everything else.

JonD is playing the piano, I am playing the guitar.

Back in my day the only time we started panic buying was when the bartender shouted "last call"!

Mario,

It sounds like you guys are sitting in an old jazz club in the late 50s... Absolutely great - love the mix and vibe.

Excellent!

Could this be Smokey Barr & the Blooz? Great sounding tune. Enjoyed my listen.

Yeah, I dig it.

JonD is a very tasty player! And so are you, very nice indeed, Mario!

Music like this can just go on forever, ended too soon for me. Great groove!

Really nice work Mario smile Incredibly smooth, and a fantastic groove to boot. I love the walking bass in this one! Really hard to avoid tapping your toe to this one.

Great job, and thanks for sharing!


Cheers,

Hi Mario. I never know what to expect when I click play on one of your excursions! This was no exception! A pleasant surprise, and a very tasteful jaunt with some very cool piano and guitar playing. Nice work both.

(I don't know why, but I was half expecting the 'next act' to be Guy Marks singing "Loving You Has Made Me Bananas"! Who remembers that?)

Perfect background music to listen to while browsing through musical instruments on Craigslist!

But no saxophone? wink

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Love those sounds Mario. Great vibe.

Awesome tone on that guitar as well. What did you use?? In other words what kind of guitar is that and what effects?

Sounds great.

My Dad played piano and my uncle Jimmy played the guitar and that was just identical to the way they sounded, so it was a bit emotional to hear that,

The instruments just flowed and complimented each other so well I enjoyed it a lot.

The piano for me is always the superior instruments in a certain tempo range, I'm a sucker for this kind of sound.

Thanks
