I thank David Snyder who kindly gave me his chord chart on which I built this piece called David Bond.

You came up with an excellent melody, Laurent. It soars and carries the listener (at least this one) on a wonderful journey of musical delight. Ha. I like that. Put that on your album. No one would know that I'm just another nobody. You came up with the perfect backing group, and, man, the guitar and midi --the melody-- is the lift that makes this so enjoyable.


Enjoy whatever happens!

This is a lovely, moody instrumental that had me (Janice) thinking about Jeff Beck’s tone in some of his slow, pretty songs.
Excellent performance and mix.

Enjoyed it,

Laurent,

This sounds fabulous!

Among all the things I can say about the captivating performance and splendid sound, I have to wonder, where in the world did you get that amazing BIAB chord progression!

Pure genius!!!!!!!!

Hi Laurent,

A very nice Jazzy sounding melody, with that dreamy leadguitar and piano.
I really liked what you did. You used nice instruments.
I was only wondering why you used that chord progression? It's not so dynamic...

No, it's a joke! Just to tease David...
As I wrote at thee start of this post, I do like that melody and how you played the solo's in it.
