What a great relief there is to hear that there are more than me who experience this. Specially when it comes from professional players.
Even though I'm just an amateur and not recording, this happens when I play with others or listeners present.
When it comes to hit the right key at the right time, and then suddenly, it did not work out the way as when practiced.... shocked

Lovely version of Blue Skies.
The first name that strikes my mind when see that title is Jim Reeves,
but as a jazzy version I also think I've heard Ella Fitzgerald recording.
