THanks so much Tom! Yeah, I love the feel of the solo trumpet. That was what got me going on this idea...when I heard that trumpet in Al David's tune. THanks again! Take care. Greg

Thank you,

Hi Greg,

Cheers,

Stefan

That paints a picture in the listener's mind. I could see this in a movie soundtrack.

So many good things about this from the smooth jazz to the melody to the lyrics to the production. It's all top bar stuff.

Simply marvelous! Such a beautiful song and holy smoke - that vocal. The velvet of your voice beautifully spreads itself over the lyric and hovers magically over the perfect combination of backing tracks. I wish I knew all the right superlatives that apply. Regardless, this is just so good and pro all the way. Love the trumpet outro. You are one of the best friends music has.

Wishing you the very best.

Thanks so much for those incredibly kind words Alan! You are a great composer/arranger/musician! I always find your music inspiring! Take care. Greg

Greg,

Great tune—very atmospheric, very tangible—you feel the darkness and the chill; it drips with loneliness. Love the melody in that chorus, and you just nail the vocals. Excellent stuff, wonderfully written and put together. That sax is sweet!

All the best,

Deej

Greg,

Very nice soulful jazz song!
Stunning performance!
Trumpet is very effective.
The melody and the chord progression are splendid.
It reminds me of "Cry me a river", "Sunny" and so on.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Wow Greg, what a fabulous song and performance! Stunning production, utterly professional in every respect. Reminds me of George Michael's big reverb-washed jazzy ballads. You have a similar voice timbre and 'yearning' delivery.
Are these BIAB RealTracks, live band or bit of both?
cool

Best

Really well done - thanks for sharing!

You have a feel for this jazzier style- so relaxed and a bit of smoke in your voice.
Al does write some very good instrumentals that invite lyrics... your inspiration has resulted in a fine song.

Love that line from you, I think it's the same for most all of us.

It makes me appreciate this group all the more.

Super arrangement, beautiful sound

Your voice works so well on a smokey ballad like this (and what a voice!)

like early Sting (post Police) he could a song this good now-a-days

excellent!

Kenny


Thanks so much Kenny! Really glad you're posting again! Take care. Greg
