Challenge: Descending ChordsLiner Notes
#jazz #rhythm #blues #acoustic #instrumental #cooljazz #oddtimesignature
Dickin' around on my new Yamaha, decided to try a descending progression with a pedal tone on top (not *quite* a line cliché...). Also wanted to take the electronics for a test drive. Success on both fronts, I think!

Had to check out this after enjoying your Bitchin' Butt Rock Song. This is very different but also very high quality. Hope to hear you do more stuff on here!
I love odd time signatures, and went searching for them because of the forum topic about 7/8 time. Your Stray Cat Strut style bass line makes a great background for the high main melody. It has an improvisatory unhurried quality about it that’s really appealing!
i really enjoyed this. it’s cool how different this is from your other song. but equally as good! i like that kind of jazzy style. i can’t really play like that but after listening to this im wishing i could. good job dude
Very glad you liked my bossa nova song “27B”. I like this one as well. I love the way the guitar lead is somewhat dissonant with the chords. It really works very nicely. So you just bought this Yamaha? I bought mine in 1970. I’ve been using it ever since. They’re really great guitars.
I too feel the Djangoism. I was stepping the streets of some town in France wearing a flower dress in the 50s with a "boheme" boyfriend by my side. This was great!
yeah this is really cool! so clean and clear and really good on the ear! lovely piece.
I'd suggest keeping your new Yamaha. Keep the player, too! Really nice tune and well-played.
Thoroughly enjoyed this!
nice one! nicely Django-esque! I like the chords and lead line and you get a nice tone out of everything. recorded direct in, or mic, or blended/both?
