Initially I swallowed the bait in the topic "Band in a Box - Challenge 1" posted in the BIAB Forum and thought I might as well try my luck with the Song "Autumn Leaves". As usual, it became something quite different, a short instrumental which I now call "Spring Leaves" (!) - unfortunately not really suitable as backing track for the original song

Hi Daniel,
Good job with the RTs. Sounds great. It may not be suitable as a backing track for the original song, but it sure makes a good demo for BB and RTs don't it. grin

Later
Jim


I'd be completely happy if I had just one more guitar.

Hi Daniel,

I liked this one! You definitely have a good feel for what fits together musically. I could hear "Autumn Leaves" in your song. In fact, it reminded me of the a similar tempo'd version by Oscar Peterson that I heard a couple of decades ago. Peterson has played many different versions of this song. Here's one...

All the best,

Hi Jim, Noel and Greg
Thanks for your kind words (and the link, I enjoyed it). I googled Oscar to have a look if he's actually still alive, I'm not very literate in Jazz. (He passed away 23.12.2007). I always thought he was an American, but I just learned he was a Canadian Citizen.....

Have a nice day
Daniel
