This made my day! Beautiful composition though and through. Wonderful job.

Perdro! Absolutely GORGEOUS!!! Well done to the both of you. This has actually become one of my encore tunes when I perform live. I actually resisted singing it for the longest time because it is probably one of the most over-performed jazz standards there is. Anyways, out of the hundreds of My Funny Valentine recordings I have heard, yours definitely rank in my top five!

Love & Light,

Mykael

loveee jazz, I love your jazz stuff

Wow... amazing work from two virtuosos! It didn't just blast my socks off mate... it ripped a hole through my beloved stripy stockings and wrenched my heart straight out of my ribs.

You guys rule!

this really hits home... and i am familiar with the original...

this is great
I come back to your stuff...

you rock.
(gotta ask.. can't help myself... what's with the tremelo-ed piano?)

Hey pedro, It's great to play on standards, but to have a standard played with such skill as you have shown on this is a dream! I play standards all the time, and they give the humble jazz musician the material to work,develop,create and put food on the table..

A lecturer I know told me this story. At the graduation of his year, he pulled his class of musicians into an empty classroom to wish them good luck now they had finished their studies with him. He asked them to raise their hands if they would session for Sting, all hands went up. He then asked who would work on a cruise liner in a band, all hands went up. He then asked who would play the northeast club circuit, only a few put their hands up. He then asked who would play at the local Italian pasta/pizza place, one hand was raised. He trned to that one person and said "You will be a professional musician and will always work". He turned to the rest and said " I feel you should all find other work outside of music"..

I think a bright future is just around the corner for you my friend..

Cheers Slap...

You're right, it blew me away. Very, very nice, love your piano work. And wow, what can you say about Mr. Slap Johnson that hasn't already been said?! I was recently working on a "Smooth Jazz" track in which I used a few of Slap Johnsons sax loops. And let me tell you, it made my song a thousand times better. But I guess he's good at doing that, right? Keep up the great work and I'll be checking out more of your music.
Peace

@Blair - that sounds like the coolest restaurant ever and if they were playing there live I'd easily pay for a $100 steak dinner. lol. this track is amazing - two very talented ppl. two thumbs up Pedro!

We have a place cald "Dante's Down the Hatch" Here in Atlanta, Ga. Very expensive resturant. In the center there's a Pirate ship surounded with water and Crocadiles. On the deck of the ship is some more tables and at one end a jazz band. I can imagine sitting there listening to this. Beautiful song.

Too much redverb for my taste but overall great playing.

Slowmotion rolling thunder....exceptional!..the music says it all...cheers planet
