But a whole band does not fit in my home studio..
Neither will any of Donny’s regular gigs be prepared to pay for a whole band..
Bachus, Frank is not an arranger player or a member of this forum so this was posted, I guess, as just a YT performance that Donny liked (I've done that, and so have you) or that he thought some members of this forum would like (and I'm sure SOME did). Nothing wrong with that. Also nothing wrong with someone commenting on it. There have many YT postings that people have commented on, both positively and negatively, so that's nothing new. Are we supposed to gush over every non-specific YT performance that someone decides to post. There are literally millions of such performances out there on YT, some good, some bad, some in-between. The point is, because someone THINKS we are going to like something doesn't always mean we will. We also need to guard against becoming so addicted to positive feedback that there is no room for any other type of comment. JMO.
