well, Jamie, all i can say is what Etta said - at last.
we get to hear you with a real rhythm section and what a wonderful selection you've made. bravos all.
Thanks for the listen Michael. I sometimes play with these guys in a dance band doing weddings/corporate functions and so forth. We do this number as downtempo smoochie respite from all dancy numbers.
Bravo jfw...I am old enough to have played covers of this one...recorded a cd for an old bandmate who is still attached to many of those great old instrumentals a couple of years ago and this is one of the tracks we did...great job on this one...superbly performed, and for me the bonus of some good memories....great job guys.....Ed
Thanks for the listen Ed. I guess I'm a bit like your mate in my tastes - I love well written melodic tunes and to get those you often have to go retro/vintage.
Melodic, sure ! Beautifull, certainly ! High quality in the construction, please, Master (Maestro) send us some sweety musics, it's like a moment of peace and reflexion.
We need so good instants in our life !
Thanks much, Lord JFW
Mate this is has a very nice vibe about it, total chillout dreamy feel,again with your works very professional souunding, just the sort of tune to here on a Sunday morning here in OZ...very enjoyable listen matey...Peace Mos formly ELSD....
very mellow, nice changes (not that I could analyze them). I kind of hearin the zappa in melody's open intervals for example. nice mix. look forward to listening to more. new fan on left side of pond
What a great feel you have here and I love the theme line and the harmony (guitar and keyboard??). Nice guitar sound too on the rhythm section. Lovely middle eight section - a bit of a dream sequence and it works well. It's all very thoughtfully done and illustrates your talents and musicianship very well. Lovely guitar solo - love that sound. Super job.
groovin style, dig the upward melody line. has a sort of Santana feel to it. Love the spaced out section when it breaksdown. Has an 80s feel for sure lol.. I hear like Sting in there too I think..
I can tell a few of your influences, neat. I love that when I didn't know I was specifically influenced by a band then realize after I listen to a song I wrote and go,.. coool !
Tahnks for listening and commenting. It's true about influences - "what's in the roots" and all that. Although I like his post Police stuff, (and the Ploice stuff for that matter)I didn't realize my music sounded anything like his. It's quite possible that I share some of the influences that make his music sound the way it does.
It's nice to hear you have been busy :) This one is really nice....has such a nice jazz flavor. Everything is flawless in this one. Well thought out and even better executed. The piano is nice, but it is your stellar guitar work that puts this one over the top.
Beautiful job. I wish I had my favorite button back. I hope all is well.
Thanks for the listen Bear - there's not a great deal of interest in material with jazz leanings on this site so i'm always glad if people like my noodlings - much appreciated.
Lovely to hear a well thought out piece of music and so excellently produced and played. Drums sound fantastic (well forward in the mix, brilliant) and that piano sound is so good. Your guitar is superb and fits so well with everything that's going on around it. Harmony guitar too - top job. Great ending. Just fabulous. Love it.
as always incredibly ez listening that belies the harmonic and emotional complexity - this makes me think of a collab between Michael Apted, Charles Shulz, and you on the ...Up docs - it is so good to see you, Jamie
Absolutely without a doubt a wonderful piece, got me mellowed about 5 bars in and caressed me all the way through....all I can say is WOW!
I was cut off from the net from around the end of July...didn't know anything about looperman changing....really missed all the great stuff I can listen too here.
Mate nice piece, has a jazzy type sound about this one, maybe a touch of other genres,never the less, you always deliver on the production, crystal clear here, nice guitar work, synths nices. great arrangement with this one as I have come to expect from your tunes, professional sound...very nice indeed my friend,Peace...elsd...
Thanks for the listen Estefano - sorry for the belated reply but I havent been around for months - I'll be catching up with what you've all been up to soon.
So, I'm back and checking in on some of my faves..
back to back plays on this one.. the sound is just so slick and polished. Everything can be heard crystal clear! no jockeying for headroom, no dissonance..
another great job...another pro quality production.
Love the sound of the drums (what do you use or is it live?) and those intro chords are fantastic. Harmony guitar work is simply wonderful. Excellent track, very well put together, such a thoughtful arrangement too. Lots of light and shade, a great journey, great guitar sound. Is there a guitar synth happening there too? Well done, great job. Love it.
Hi Richie,
Thanks for listening. The drums are done by a session drummer - I downloaded them and built the track around them. The guitar harmonies were done on a Les Paul and the outro solo on a PRS Custom (for the whammy bar). There are little bits of Guitar Synth peppered throughout!
Thanks, Jamie.
