Mario,
A very relaxing mood piece with your distinctive guitar tone and playful change of soloists showcasing your diverse skills.
I liked the growly sax!

Thanx Robert. I was worried that the sax may have been too growly. Thanx for listening and commenting, I appreciate that.

Lovely smooth jazz tune, made me escape nicely! The sax sounds real, and you have a very nice sensitive touch on the guitar. Good job!

Your latest more jazzy productions are really hittin' the note!
Given how steeped BiaB is into Jazz there are relatively few
productions posted here so this is an extra pleasure for us to
listen to.

Irrespective of the genre your playing is always great. And
the sax and guitar performances on this are no exception.

Enjoyed it!

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

Slow excitement wrapped around a heady feel. It makes me close my eyes and move my head as if it's a branch in the wind. Nice trip, Mario. I remember liner notes on a Dave Brubeck album that said Paul Desmond's sax sounded like a wet martini. It came to mind when I heard yours. Well written, well played, well mixed, and thoroughly enjoyed.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Forgive me for being late on listening to this. I just got overwhelmed with work in preparing for the new school year.

You are so versatile in your musicianship and your composition skills. Everything is layered nicely. Such a breezy feel. Excellent all around!

Totally interesting discordance definitely gave the song great appeal.

Intrigue, sensuousness, pretty much everything.

I think the smooth jazz outcome definitely worked. Nice.

Cool piece. Seems you played most parts. Tune sucked me in in the first 30 seconds, got my awareness back on the next song you had on your list smile Hypnotic stuff. Solid composition and very good playing! Enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing!
