You have quite an extensive playlist of some really spectacular sounding stuff yourself. Very high quality ~ I spent a couple hours digging on your bags yesterday. To tell you the truth ~ I hate that canned, homogenized, evaporated & condensed style of "smooth jazz" so popular on the easy listening radio stations (& elevators) of today !
Not to say your shit ain't smooth ;D ~ It's just got a lot more substance & heart !!!!!
I was very fortunate to spend a long weekend with the Stan Kenton Orchestra, who happened to do a seminar I had the pleasure of attending, as a young man, & even got to share the same stage (performing in an earlier band) on the night of the very last concert he ever played. It was an amazing learning experience that is a part of the process that's still going on inside of me to this day !!!!!! Anywayzzzzz my point being ~ I really like your tunes !!!!!
Just played the 1st 5 (listening to "Blink" as type) again this morning !!!!!!!
Thank you for letting me be your friend & fan !
~ You have chosen wisely 2 enter my Ashram / Asylum. ~ I love everything ~ I'll never deny you.
Next time I'm changing my moniker 2 something political ~ I get in way too much trouble with this religious angle!
Thank you for the kind words Rick. Coming from you that's a real compliment-your stuff is top shelf! I'm a sucker for Beatle covers. Loved what you did with the harmony on Eleanor Rigby.
Rick, Thank you for the kind words. A singer is nothing without good accompaniment. I am always jealous of piano players, because I have always wanted to play. Emma is a beautiful, and very hip tune. I love it. I should also mention. I am a swing dancer as well, and have danced to The Boilermakers many times over the years. If you are ever in New Orleans look me up. I am a fan. Yours respectfully, Jody Byrd
