Thanks to Scott Yee's request and song inspiration, here is my my live, one-pass, arranger recording of CRAZY LOVE.

This has been an excercise in learning how to use the G70 too. I now know a lot more about the G70's strenghts and shortcomings. Overall there are numerous more strengths. This song took several practices to understand better how to start and end songs. As you can tell, the ending is still not what I want but I think I'm close and when I play it live on the job it should end correctly.

The vocal drop-outs you hear toward the end are me trying to check or set up the next transition. I'm not as pleased with my harmonizer work on this take, but it's a one-take recording.

I understand tht I can and should use several tracks to properly record this song as I want. I would put the organ on a separate track and would probably use a little piano too. I was so busy while playing this song that I totally forgot to use the upper 2 and 3 voices as I planned. I also did not adjust the arranger volumes as I did on the first, so drums and bass are a little quieter. But I've spent too much time and frustration (see my previous threads) just getting thru this song.

My thanks again to Scott Yee whose rendition of this song inspired me to do an alternate version. Stylewise they are not that similar, but I think you can compare the two keyboard arrangers for sound quallity.

The nice thing I can do on the G70 that would take too much time to attempt on a Yammie is, I can change the instruments in the style with a touch of a button using the Cover feature. But the Yamaha was easier to maneuver around, for me (PSR2k).
