Hi all,
Here's a french old jazz song.
Philippe Janin has written the lyrics and he sings.
The song is about Boris Vian, a french writer, singer and jazz trumpeter in the 50s.
In the lyrics, his trumpet is speaking and regrets Boris Vian's death, still waiting for him !

Nice work on this - it flows tremendously well, and I love that groove here. Got me tapping my foot from the get go, and it was great usage of the RealTracks.

Thanks for sharing smile


Cheers,
Deryk

An excellent narrative to build a song upon.
The simple band and arrangement works perfectly.
Philipe's singing is ace.
Excellent work again.
I read a bad pun today about a...

Sorry.

Excellent listen Chris.

That is a great idea for a lyric and it was well performed.

As always you take RT's and make them sound like a
fine club jazz band.

Well done!

Hi Christian & Philippe,

This is really, really delightful.

The band is excellent, the arrangement is terrific and Philippe's singing is a perfect fit for the genre.

You've captured the the 1940/50s sound incredibly well.

I really enjoyed listening.

Regards,
Noel

Philippe, exceptionally well done.

Chris, another very listenable delivery.

You captured a bit of everything that was needed to deliver this, but not a thing that should not have been there.

Perfect.
