Hi Steve,
So much of what I was going to say has already been said. Sounds pro all the way. I truly enjoy almost all genres of Latin music, Samba and Bossa Nove being my favorites. You are very talented and I enjoy your music very much. These almost 80-year-old ears (turned 78 last weekend) still hear pretty good, and I'm liking what I hear from you very much.
Thanks for a great listen!
Alan

Ah, somma say Sambas are for Summer, but I say they make me move in every season. Nah, just kidding about the somma says stuff. But, no doubt this is some outstanding music here, Steve. Your ability and craftsmanship on those reeds is something special. I really dig this one-take samba. SO glad you share these wonderful pieces here. Thank you. BabuMusic- I picked the samba style because it feels so "breezy". Really fits my wife's personality. Even more so all those years ago. Thanks for the nice comments and for giving this song a listen. I have some more originals, most of which were written while I was in Baghdad during the war. While many Soldiers were making podcasts, my band mates and I were writing songs to and creating a musical diary of our experiences. These songs are pretty heavily arranged. Still trying to figure out how to get Real Tracks to play a specific, written out line. I know I can do it with midi, but Real Tracks sounds so much better (I don't have very good midi sounds available). Any suggestions?
