Hi Marty,
This is right in my comfort zone. Love smooth jazz - especially when so well produced and performed.
You make great music and the rest of us are so fortunate to have early and lasting access to it.
You might want to give that bass player a raise - he kills it on this one!
Loved it - top shelf all the way.
Merry Christmas.
Alan Thanks, Alan, and yes, you came to mind while msking this song actually, like WWAD. What would Alan do at this part. Comments like yours are the only raise that matters. Very Cool. And Jazzy. And Smooth....
That e piano is magical. As is the bass, of course.
Nice.
fj Thanks, Floyd. I know you're playing some cool piano these days AND guitar, and it tempts me to play piano more again, but just like the guitar players in this box we all enjoy, it quickly becomes a back-burner idea. Of course, all of the bassists in the box are far better than me too, but a guy's gotta have SOME fun. Hope you had a great Christmas, Floyd. Thanks for your inspiration. Marty,
You've got a lot of Jazzy stuff going on here! You definitely pushed yourself into a new area vocally and it sounds beautiful to me! You did a super job putting this together as well your parts vocally and on bass! I always enjoy your work! Thanks, TB Thanks, Torrey! I listen to your music a lot, and it's good hearing from you. Hope you are doing well and enjoying the Christmas Season. Nice job, Marty. Kind of a "Quiet Storm Radio" tune. Did you use a notch filter on the vocals? Good lyrics as always. Thanks, Bob. uh-oh, here comes a true confession. I have no idea what a notch filter is. I have a lot of knobs and sliders and plug-ins that I just move around until it sounds alright. If it doesn't, I drop it and try something else. Now I gotta go look up notch filter... Okay, a quick search tells me I may have. Haha. Thanks, Bob.

Creative take on the love lost theme … nice!
The cool jazzy funky flavor is to us a different style for you and it suits you very well.
We also got a bit of an early Loggins and Messina feel.
Smooth vocal and bass (no surprise) and the soprano solo was excellent.
Nice mix, supportive vid and arrangement to top it all off.
Enjoyed it!

Great production

Hi, Marty. Pleasant listen - easy jazz goes down smooth. The sax solo works very well. If I were browsing the web instead of listening carefully, I might think the lyrics were much more cheerful than they are.

Marty - classy write, production, mix & master!
Great to hear you stretching yourself into new
territory - superb!!
Carl Thanks, Carl. Got my reservation for tomorrow. Classy might be new for me. hehe But Polka and Metal are maybe the only two territories I avoid. This really got off to a great start. Caught my attention and hear. Enjoyed your tune. Thanks, Charlie. Really glad you liked it. Creative take on the love lost theme … nice!

Enjoyed it! Janice & bud, Bud & Janice, yeah, the singer still wore hope on his sleeve, but because of something in his eye he just couldn't see the end. That sax solo started off pretty easy with just one --maybe 2-- measures that needed regenerations. But that one... wish I had that RT player in the studio. Thanks for everything, you two. Hi Marty

Andi ;-) Thanks, Andi. Can't wait for more of yours next year. Especially enjoyed the You Tube video. Ready for prime time, to be sure! Thanks, Ed. Good to "see" you. Hope you're doing well. Hi, Marty. Pleasant listen - easy jazz goes down smooth. The sax solo works very well. If I were browsing the web instead of listening carefully, I might think the lyrics were much more cheerful than they are. Thanks, David. Your comments on this forum are always so helpful. You're like one of the EF Hutton types here. May not always agree with ya, but I always learn helpful stuff from you on others' posts as well. Yeah, that singer was trying to keep a positive attitude, but she wasn't really listening.

You're getting fancy with them there chords, ain't cha?  A different Marty tune for sure, but good nonetheless. Grooving, soothing, and smoothing!
