For this Dylan song I used the "On Base" feature on the kn6000 for the descending bass line:
Song 1

This is just a different version, with all due respect to Sir Paul and Don Mason ...
Song 2

Hope you enjoy ... if not that's OK, I'm a BIG boy ...

Tony great Job ob both tunes.. I love the Bossa styling it works so well with this song and really shows that you can do any song with any style if you want with an arranger KB.. Bravo Paisan!!

Very nice Tony. Thanks for sharing!

Nice renditions, Tony. I hope this trend of posting songs continues.

Thanks guys ...
There is a LOT of good talent here at S-Z ... you know who you are ... stop hiding, start contributing ...

Tony...

Very nice indeed...great singing, and fine backup.

One of the first arrangers I saw (and played) with the On Bass fingering, was a Technics. At that time Yamaha didn't have it...it really makes a difference in how professional sounding the arrangements can be, and some tunes, like A Whiter Shade Of Pale require a bass note different than the chord's natural root.

Thankfully Yamaha finally added it, but it was Technics that had it first...those instruments were fantastic arrangers, and ahead of their time.

One wonders what they'd be making today, if they had remained in the arranger field.

Thanks for sharing your music...you have a very natural talent, and it shows quite well in your performance.

Tony,

Thanks for posting and kudos! I really like the Bossa on "My Valentine", nice job on both tunes.

Great job Tony. It's good to hear you again!

Ian ... thank you for the kind words ... they are much appreciated ...

The very first time I went shopping for an 'arranger', I tried several in the store and then the sales rep - who actually KNEW and PLAYED arranger KBs - suggested I try a mint condition resale he had ... it was a technics kn1000 ... I immediately was able to navigate the OS and make it sound like I knew what I was doing ... I've been a 'techie' since ...

Thank you for the comments on my talent ... however much there is, I regret that I did not put more time and effort into it in my younger years ...

I recently had the occasion to play for some friends who came to see me at a restaurant/lounge ... these folks hadn't heard me in a while, and I was pleased when they told me that I sounded even better than when they last heard me ... I guess having more time to spend 'playing' - even at home just for myself - has its benefits ...

Funny story ... at one recent gig a woman told me I had a 'very young voice' ... I guess that was her way of saying I look a lot older than I sound ...
