tony mads usa Senior Member Registered: 01/16/02 Posts: 14377 Loc: East Greenwich RI USA	... with some of the instrumentals that have been posted ... recorded on my pa900, IMHO this may be the most beautiful song ever written. It may show 34+ minutes but it is 5 minutes long, and when I played it back there was nothing after 5 minutes ... https://app.box.com/s/snay36gmfxhq4ts76mh3n4f2yozqtwwu _________________________ t.

Stay warm up north I hear you folks have single temps there with snow and ice. Great weather for staying indoors and creating such a great rendition! What style did you use?

tony mads usa Senior Member Registered: 01/16/02 Posts: 14377 Loc: East Greenwich RI USA	Steve ... I believe it was the 'Cool Bossa' , but I changed some of the voices and pads ... One of the things I like to do with songs like this is set the following voices RH1 PIANO, RH2 VIBES, RH3 SOFT JAZZ GUITAR, and set the "Ensemble" to BLOCK ... it gives that George Shearing sound ... Yes, it was 1 degree when I got up at around 7AM with a wind chill of -21 ... great day for keyboard, soup and a movie with the fireplace going later ... _________________________ t.

montunoman Senior Member Registered: 10/20/09 Posts: 3250 Loc: Dallas, Texas	Excellent! I really love the way you developed it, change of instrumentation, and nice improves too. Did I hear a “ So Nice/Samba Song” quote in the sax solo? _________________________ It not the keyboard, it's the keyboardist. www.youtube.com/channel/UCV94i--V-A8kZShmGTKyDOw https://www.facebook.com/elgrupocache

Tony I remember you liked the Shearing sound., it shines thru on your playing/setup. I think the style “cool bossa” is very appropriate for the weather you’re having Maybe it should be called “very cool bossa?”

bruno123 Senior Member Registered: 06/04/02 Posts: 4912 Loc: West Palm Beach, FL 33417	Tony, I love it. You started the style and did not let it get in your way. Then you played what is in Tony’s heart. This song is telling who you are. You escaped the melody and then came back to it. NICE! This is one of my favorite song both on keyboard and guitar, John C.

Riceroni9 Senior Member Registered: 11/15/04 Posts: 1298 Loc: TX, USA	Shearing does Bossa... nice touch, Tony. Most enjoyable to hear an "old standard" revived and performed so well. Especially with an unconventional style the seasoned listener is not expecting... and cannot wait to listen again. Nice!
