Nice work, Barb! Really liked your tone. It was warm, round and fat. Was this a memorized transcription that you played or did you improvise any at all, during your playing, here? I'm working on remembering songs by studying chord progressions. Its challenging but rewarding work. Joshua Redman recorded a very impressive rendition of thhis song. If you haven't heard it before, give it a listen. Well done!
Thanks for your kind comments and for the recommendation of Joshua Redmonds rendition. I will take a listen for sure! In this recording I improvised the whole thing after I played the head.
Thank you so much! I grew up playing clarinet but I played sax in the jazz band in high school and 1 year in college. Then took a BIG break to raise 4 children! Started working on improvisation in the last 10 years.
