Check out "I'll Be Your Baby Tonight".

Now I know what drew me to this tune .... it has a similar chord/melody structure to "Without a song" ..... I think I'll blend them into a medley .... should work well !

While transcribing "Don't Know Why", I noticed the Floyd Cramer influence in the piano. While this is certainly not a country song, it amazes me how often his styling still shows up.

Floyd played on a great many recordings that weren't country. He did the piano for my friend's song "Bread and Butter" back in the 60's. He did a great many rock 'n roll sessions back then.

Yeah, it's nice isn't it? I've been playing it with only piano and live bass & drums. That's all the tune really needs to seel it. If you try using a style ... thin it WAY down to let the live piano chords shine through. This is a GREAT way for some of you to break the "arranger chains" and just play the song yourself. It sounds SO GOOD simple. Leaves room for expression with the vocal ... I am really lovin' this tune.

Ok...........so when are you coming to Jersey? The beer's cold !

Hey Tony, Etta owns most every song she does! Have you heard her Billie Holiday collection? Also, believe it or not, her Christmas record is great! And her Muscle Shoals soul sessions rock.---- o.k. I'm a big fan-------
And yes, Diana Krall is wonderful. It is just not fair that one human can have such a voice and play so well (real jazz too)and STILL be a total BABE! God likes her a lot!

Two more words ...... Nancy Wilson.
Hot stuff ..... even today.

I have to head to the Garden State sometime in mid June to shoot photos of state wildlife and fisheries personell. That should take about half a day. The rest of the day will be spent shooting photos of folks fishing. However, before heading back to Maryland, I hope we can get together and tilt a couple brewskis. I'll let you know of the exact date when the time gets closer.

As I mentioned a few months back I saw Ms. Wilson in the lounge/cafe setting at Mohegan or Foxwoods ..... can't remember which casino, but her show was fabulous ... Ms. Wilson, piano, bass & drums ... nothing else needed ... pure talent, pure class, pure magic ......
