Dangling ParticiplesHope everyone had a great Valentines Day! Another Smooth Jazz Fusion piece. It's a genre I've come to like more and more over the past year or so. Hope you like it.

There's not much smooth jazz I can resist and this has splash of funk! Nice job. As for dangling participles, I have vague recollections of them in middle school, and unbeknownst to me, I probably dangle them all the time! And that pooch is saying "Boss, don't turn me into bacon, I'm really a dog!"

I absolutely love your mixes, and this is just one of many examples of why. A lot of unexpected chord changes in this one. Oh, is dangling your participle even legal to do in public!

Smooth... with some unexpected descending lines. I guess those were those "dangling participles".  Nice!

Alan, this is a lot of fun! The harmonic movement is very lively and you've got the soloist moving right along with it. Very nice! I may have nightmares about the dog-pig/pig-dog/? though...Ha!

I mistakenly read the title as "Entangled Particles" and thought it was a song about quantum mechanics  Smooth and relaxing, but still interesting enough to keep my attention. Well done, Alan!

HI Brad, Thanks for dropping in for a listen. And thank you for those very nice comments! And, for the record, it is my understanding you an publicly dangle your participle all you want as long as you keep it covered. Here's wishing you and all your participles, dangling or not, the very best. Alan

Smooth... with some unexpected descending lines. I guess those were those "dangling participles". Nice! HI David, Yes, I ihad to dangle those participles in order to cleanly get to the chord that followed. Thanks for the time to listen and comments so nicely. Hope you and your fsamily are feeling better soon. Alan

Well produced and fun to listen to. Well, other than reminding Bud of his stunningly strict english teacher in high school! Enjoyed it! J&B Hi Folks, Many thanks! I was always pretty good with grammar in school. I still know how to dangle a participle (uh ... grammatically speaking). Wishing both of you the very best. Alan
