Hi F.F.M.,

This is a very nice song you made. The melody gave a feeling it was somewhere in the '50s? Don't shoot me if I'm wrong! But it has a cheerful infuence. couldn't find the little secrets though...
It's not easy to do that arrangements in a way they fit nicely. But you did it. I heard the acoustic bass did something special (towards the end of the song). To get it like that is a very good job.

I thought the soloist was another instrument and not a sax. I even thought it to be a clarinet. Then I read what instruments you used, so it was a sax after all.

thanks Hans for listening and comments yeah it did sound like a clarinet at times but mainly a sax its a instrument that has a high register or the way I eq it Eric

The soprano sax sounds sweet. Very interesting changes, F.M.M.. The guitar rides the changes in a very melodic way, Well done.

'F.M.M'...

Your songs ALWAYS take me to the most gorgeous and serene places in my mind, a combination of places I've actually been to, and other places that exist only in my imagination.

The Real Style and it's accompanying Real Tracks are simply stunning -- I need to get busy checking out more of BIAB's styles! The soprano sax solo made me think I was watching the musician actually playing his/her instrument.

What can I say about your electric guitar performance? So much soul, so much melodic and rhythmic invention. I love how much space you leave between your musical statements. It makes me want to compare you with other, more well-known artists, but, you know what? I ain't gonna do it, because you hold your own among them, 'F.M.M.'. They should be singing your praises, sir smile. Don't respond bashfully, now, 'cause you gotta know how good you are as an instrumentalist.

Just keep this up, is all I can say smile.

Truly,

LOREN (a.k.a. 'bluage')

That's very nice Eric.

The melodic guitar and the backing tracks make it sound like a 60's or 70's
movie theme.

Nice!

Ah, the oft-neglected soprano sax. It's cool to hear it in an even more mellow context than usual.

And then the guitar came it, and like floyd jane, it became my favorite part of the song.

Cool and snazzy. I wanted your guitar to start a little earlier. Sounds so good.

Hi eric,

You are the forum king of this style. Smooth jazz sits so well under mastery. I enjoyed the journey.

All the best,
Noel
