    I'm kind of disheartened at the lack of responses here at jazzguitar, one of the last remaining refuges for jazz guitar. This is a pretty major, and difficult, jazz standard played pretty well as solo guitar piece if I say so myself, none other exist, at least from what I see online, and no one has a comment, good or bad? Has our attention span been spread so thin by the abundance of free content online? How are those of us who still create supposed to find inspiration to create more if we can't even give away this stuff for free? Thanks, Jake

    I thought it was great, Jake. I think most people don't know what more to say than that so just click the "Thanks" button, that's kind of how it goes here.

    However, you reminded me of my ordeal, when I was much younger and greener, in attempting to transcribe Jack Wilkins rendition of this tune that's on his first album - so sort of a PTSD moment for me.

    It is really good. And I sort of understand what you are saying. I post originals on here. I occasionally get a comment, but I keep my expectations low. I look at it more like contributing to the site and hopefully make it a little more interesting to hang out here.

    I enjoyed it very much! Great arrangement and performance.

    Just one comment...maybe smile a bit more when you are playing such beautiful music.

    Thanks! I find the Gary Burton (with Chick and Metheny) version to be the one from which it's the, relatively, easiest to learn as the music is stated a bit more clearly, in my opinion.
