Hi Mike ...

Sounds like a backing track when Peter Gunn was at the Mother's Lounge, sitting with his girlfriend, Edie Hart. For those who don't know, Peter Gunn was an American TV series in the late 1950s and early 1960s.

Anyway, this is fabulous, Mike! Loved every note from beginning to end. very, very nicely done!

Best to you. Be safe ...

Alan

It's sleazes along in jazz bar style really well.
It NEEDS a vocal and lyrics - seriously.

Thanks BL, Alan and Ray for the comments. I hope I could write lyrics, and sing....you don't want me to do that! If someone wants to take a wack at it, go ahead, don't mind at all.

Great piano solo, but the trombone part is soooo incredibly beautiful.

Very moving.

Another one from just outside the square Mike.

No mainstream here. Sensual, elegant, jazzy, in it's own unique way.

Good work on this one - as VideoTrack said, it is certainly a unique one. The trombone on this caught my ear immediately. A fantastic mix too - it floats really nicely and is equal parts quirky and gorgeous.

You should be proud of this one - thanks for sharing smile


Cheers,
Deryk

Nice slow swing and a great choice of solo
and rhythm tracks.

That blues piano fit in nicely.

We enjoyed it...a lot.

A very sultry swing. Man, that trombone makes the mood, and that piano tickles with taste. Wonderful presentation, Mike. I like rayc's suggestion for a vocalist, but this stands tall on its own.


Enjoy whatever happens!
