Thanks for sharing.

Wonderfully done sir. Quick question: was that simply recorded with nothing more than an SM58 or could you share how this was recorded? Thank you

[Jazzguitarsussx]

Hi Uffe, thanks, glad you like my version.
David, (I'm not the most technological of people), it was done a while back. I'll ask my mate n see how he did it n get back to you!

[Jazzguitarsussx]

Hi David, yes he just stuck the Mic in front and recorded it. Didn't use any fancy programmes or anything

Lovely version of Desafinado!

I can see your classical training in your voicings and approach to jazz and bossa nova tunes. I play a couple of Yamaha classical guitars most of the time and enjoy arranging jazz standards for solo or small group settings. Although music is not my day job, I would like to find a real good female jazz singer to work with in a duo setting as in one of your videos. I think that is a great vehicle for suiting a variety of performance settings. Not easy these days.... Good luck with your career. Hope you will continue to post to YT and here.

Thanks Jay
yes I live solo gigs n duos with singers, it's a fun challenge keeping all the stuff going with no bass or other backing.
glad you like the other videos on my site Jay
