So...

I took the day off today, much needed for my head to clear, and what do I do?

...I threw together a new version of Giant Steps...someday, I will learn to rest... :(

If anyone has heard my other version, it was a VERY straight ahead, clean tone, etc...no melody, just soloing...

THIS version is, well, different...(except for the backing tracks, which are the same.....it's still me on bass, some simple guitar comping, and a quick drum program...)...and its only 1:30...

Anyway...

I've been working on phrasing behind the beat more, and on this, I wanted to try that out, with both the melody and the solo...and rather than just burn the changes, I wanted to try some space, and bends...

extremely cool man.. I really love the tone.. and I dig that groove.. You're putting together some great music.. This version really inspires me, I'm going to have to give the lead to that tune a try.. I've always just fooled around with the changes..
