Nice, I really dig that tune. Now, I'm just waiting for some Louis Prima stuff to turn up from you! Come on, Jump, jive, and wail!!!

Or some David Lee Roth...

now your REALLY talking 30's music

My biggest factor is no fretless, no upright, so it will never sound authentic ---so all I can promise is that if I do it, it will be "note" correct ( or at least as long as I can HEAR the bassline ) clearly under all the other junk in there.

30's-40's music is so....so......so..... walking bass line-ish ( but at least the chord structuring is consistent )

Keely Smith is still with us. Maybe you two should record a duet.

Keely Smith... in my teenage days she was IT! Check this out, and you'll understand why: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I98RKtqxeEo&eurl=http://bassoutpost.com/index.php?topic=1606.msg26622

Yes, that clip does a great job of capturing what they were about. And she really had a way about her.

If you really want to challenge yourself play the Brian Setzer version

kee-rist, am I the only leftyBird player besides PBROCKER56 who is a member of this board?

forget about the people who do play REAL lefty Grecko/TokaiBirds, or flippers like myself for the righty versions but I meant MEMBERS on this board.

come out come out wherever you are
