Hi Christian,
Hard to beat a mysterious-sounding Blues number. We liked that Bluesy piano lead a lot. Nicely out together. You do really nice work.
It sounds terrific as is but we were a little curious why you chose to not include a bass line. Have a great Wednesday!

Hi Alan and Di, Thanks for your comments. There's no bass line just because I've not found the right bass to go with. There's certainly a good bass to put with..... If some of you have ideas !

Bob Totally agree Chris! You can also pick up a Country blues vibe when that piano part comes in. Sounds good! Thanks, Torrey

"Chris37"...
I have listened to both versions of "Always Looking For The Blue Note".
The second version featuring Guillaume's harmonica is soaked with the sweat of the "blues" in the classic sense. Guillaume performs as though he harvested his unique sound out of the soil. It is gritty, wailing, and raw.
But, then again, the version featuring the oboe solo is something else entirely. What better choice could there be of an instrument from a typically orchestral setting to augment the feel of an earthy blues number than the wistful, pining and poignant sound of an oboe?
It was a daring choice to make, "Chris37", and it had the effect of transforming a weary, lonesome-sounding blues song into a ballad that reaches for the light of...???
You've created something distinctive and unexpected with "Always Looking for the Blue Note".
What's next?
Sincerely,
LOREN

Nice tune. Great authentic blues sound. I much prefer the harmonica over the oboe in the second version. It really screams that New Orleans or Mississippi styled of blues. Great job.
