I’m here in the Northeast bracing for a Blizzard, not at home but at work for the next few days. Will have to post my cut sometime in the week. Look forward to hearing some contributions!

No takers takers for this tune, it seems. Come on folks, it's a fun one. There are some good backing tracks. I decided to go With Mr. Sunny Bass and add a drum track.

Back when this was started the tune had almost been done to death by about Sunday :-)

I'm here—will get something posted this weekend for sure.

It's okay, it's not a roust. No pressure.
I've done about three versions so far but I'm not happy yet :-)

If you don’t fall off the rails once in a while, you’re not doing it right. I guess.

I liked that, wzpgsr, it was interesting.
This might do.

John: I’ve been playing with the same trio the last couple of takes as well. Mr. Sunny Bass and Mr. Drum Genius really get around. I liked the bit of chord soloing you sprinkled throughout.
Rags: Nice take. Some blues coming out, but with some vague “tropical” references.

I liked the way you started low, by the way, and your lines were pretty good too. Do you have a 'method'? Or would that be classified?

My method is to play the crap out of that stuff when I practice and hope that some of it comes out in playing. I also pay a lot of attention to what the more advanced players in this group are doing. Seeing how / where the blues comes out, etc. versus playing changes.

Okay, twiddly Sugar now.

But what's quite clever is the way he makes Cm pentatonic fit so neatly over Gb7 Or is it the other way round :-)

Well, better late then never !

I did like that slow, sultry bass, quite seductive in its way
