Enjoyed the listen, well done!

Hey Dave, I'm glad you enjoyed this and that it all worked. To be sure, when composing my arrangements, I'm never sure if much of anything will work. Lately I find myself not being too satisfied with "playing it safe". So I mess around with stuff that I haven't necessarily heard before, like 2 different smooth jazz styles mashed together.

Isn't BiaB a great creative tool?

PS> If you haven't already, check out the Ron Carter film on PBS, a great source of inspiration.

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.
