Very well played and, as Bill suggested, very organistic in it's approach. A useful technique sometimes when playing string section parts.

Well he's certainly not on a calibur of
Tony Monaco thats for sure.

LOL....thats like comparing Hendrix to Mason Williams.

What in the Hell is the matter with you people? YES, I SAID IT! I posted a link to a beautifully composed song and BANG! Everything starts turning to $hit, goes into left field and another thread is shot to Hell. I can't believe what I'm reading. I'm gonna' go mow the lawn, fix a margaretta and hope this is all gone when I come back later tonight.

1) I still like it quite a bit but not quite as impressed as before given 4 tracks. From Gary's original post, I thought it was done live.

2) That said, I hope I'm able to comprehend what 4 tracks even are when I'm 68, much less come up with a nice sounding performance like she did. The final mix was to my ears, great.

Sorry if you thought I was attempting to hijack your thread, I was simply pointing out that 'Deep Purple' meant something different to me, and that the music this clever lady has produced speaks volumes about why we are all so different in our instrument choice.

Here's an article that ties the two together (Deep Purple the band - Deep Purple the song):

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_Purple_(song)

The British rock band Deep Purple got their name from Pete De Rose's hit after guitarist Ritchie Blackmore's grandmother repeatedly asked if they would be performing the song, her personal favourite.



I really liked her arrangement. Yamaha strings sound great. I also agree with the folks that heard an 'organ' technique. I think that also shows on her other entries on PSR-Tutorials.

Look for Judy Short in the Performer column.

Judy Short has really captured the flavor of the song I've heard over and over thru the years The fact that she has created that on an s900 is impressive, lots of creativity. I would have never thought about trying to play this on the s900, let alone produce what she has.

I had a pretty decent command of this song at one time playing it as a piano solo, but as the years have gone by I haven't played it much and have lost it.

This song "Deep Purple" also reminds me of my late father. As a kid growing up in the late 50s early 60s I heard this on my dad's custom built Jensen speaker system via a Harmon-Kardon pre-amplifier/heath kit amp. He played it regularly, as I recall it might have been a version recorded by Jackie Gleason's orchestra ( ??) The tune always sent chills up and down my spine.

Later in life when in my early 20s when I met this lovely Chiquita. OH, did she love that tune and she played it as background music we were making a different kind of music.
