Ray,

I really enjoyed your performance of "La Playa". Thank you and I hope to hear more. Keep them coming.

Here's a vocal (non-english) recording of "La Playa". Click on the headphone underneath the first picture.

Very nice relaxed piece of music played with plenty of feeling

I first listened to La Playa. Very nice song and nicely played. Tyros2 makes that guitar very real, but of course you must make use of it with your playing - and you did that very convincing.
Besame Mucho is "much" in the same order, but I know this tune with a bit more interesting chords than you are using. Maybe you should experiment a little.....

Once again thanks to all of you who listened to my music and your kind remarks.

To Nick G the style I used on Besame Mucho was the guitar rumba at 104bpm.

To drdalet could you share with us your version of Besame Mucho with those intersting chords. I certainly would like to use more colorful chords but the only music I had for the song was from an easy play book. If you have real book type chords for this could you post them for all of us to experiment with.

Thanks: Ray

I used to play it on my accordeon, so I tried to do it on the PSR3000. It tried some different chords, I recorded it and edited a little and here is the link:

Only after I recorded it I noticed that I play it in a different key than you do.
Mind you, it's just a sketch.... and my guitar isn't half as nice as yours too ;-)
I also put in a trumpet bit with some other chords.
On two points in the music you hear the bass a bit loud. I don't understand why that is (it happens when I play a DM7b5 coming from Fm7: es-f-as-c > d-f-bes-c)

Some of the chords are tricky, because of the way the PSR interprets the chords, so I sometimes had to do it in a strange way. To emphasize certain notes in the chord, one also needs pick the right style - not all styles or variation sounds alright.
I didn't write down the chords yet, but I could explain what I am doing, but it being a bit late now, I go to bed. If you are interested I'll let you know tomorrow.
