Hello, Alan

Very nice and sweet jazz ballad!
You have proved that such a beautiful solo is generated when the chord progression is properly input to BIAB.
This tune is a splendid example.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Hey Guys!

Yeah, the sax worked out pretty good. I've been having pretty good luck with the sax RTs lately. I really like those new styles, too. Thank you very much.

Hi Folks,

Was without Internet for 5 or 6 days, so a little slow getting back to answer comments.

Not sure if I "own" them, but they've turned out pretty good for the most part. (You haven't heard the ones that didn't make the cut!) I never tire of hearing "classy" in reference to any of my music. That's a wonderful comment and I truly appreciate it. many thanks for the listen and terrific words!

Alan

My best wishes to you and Di,
Noel

P.S. I love this title!


Noel,

I'm always at a loss when I reply to your wonderful reviews of my music. You make an old heart (and body) feel great! I truly cannot explain why this genre comes so naturally for me as I never played it professionally - around the house quite a bit, though. I've always been a h8uge fan of folks like Brook Benton, Dizzy Gillespe, Lou Ralls, Lionel Hampton, Henry Mancini and the old Tommy Dorsey & Glen Miller music.

Somehow, the chords just fall in place. I'm so glad you enjoy my music. And that goes both ways.

Hope all is well with you. Di and I think of you often. Wishing you the very best.

ALan & Di

Torrey,

You are always very kind with your comments on my music. Coming from the superbly talented artist and performer you are, that's so gratifying. Thank you so much.

And yes, the sax was the only instrument that "told the story" for this one. I tried trumpet, guitar and trombone - there was no doubt the sax was the right choice. I'm delighted you agree. Wishing you the best,

Alan
