Here is the Instrumental version that I closed out just now in Studio A.
Reading through the thread really inspired me to get myself back on track - I had so much incredible support and help on this - Aiden had just entered the scene back then - was so great to connect with him. Wooten (someday I need to meet you face to face) - Daviid B the BassMan, Jaaman - Great!!! PK - Great Mix, - and the drummers came out of the woodworks - i just listened to a couple of those takes - wish i could have made versions for all. My son - ho hum - he doesn't even listen to my shit - just picks up the horn and blows....

And of course - thanks again TestaMan - makes it all possible

Jay Schankman Keys
John Wooten Drums
Aidan Piano
David Belizzi Bass
Sergio Valdes Music, Guitar
Sergio Valdes Jr. Muted Trumpet
Paul Kimbrel Mix Master

Smooooth listening. Nice stuff. Love the muted trumpet. Beautiful guitar tone. Keyboard solo would have been nice in there. That was a good listen for my morning.

Thanks Guys,

Rob - I don't know about mentioning my name in the same paragraph as Wes Montgomery - but I will definitely accept the compliment

Back at you John - and I thank You for always being there - not just for me - but also for the community.

This cyber phenomonen is amazing - there are people, kindred spirits, that I feel such a connection with - and you are one of only a few. Didn't mean to get mushy - but I'm in a place where I find myself realizing how blessed I am - and trying to make sure that I thank those that have helped me.

I am also upbeat due to the fact that I am optimistic about being able to retire form my "Day Job" next February
