 This certainly was a fun one to produce. Inspiration was from having a cup of Java and people watching by the boardwalk in Virginia Beach near King Neptune.

Godspeed.

" I just listened/watched your new song, and got to tell you that some things are a constant in life. And one of those things is your ability to "shred" (as we guitar players call it) on the piano, all while making it look easy. You are, and always have been an amazing and talented musician. Keep it rolling!"

Having a morning coffee in the studio, catch on Facebook Michiel Bortslap "Liked" Atlantic Avenue. Well, about fell out of my studio chair. Bortslap is one of my top favorite Jazz pianest in the world right up there with Lyle Mays. Michiel has also done extensive work with two of my favorite musicians, Gino Vannelli and Bill Bruford, who we were fortunate enough to host him on Jim Baugh Outdoors TV.

If you like piano music, definatley check out Bortslap. His playing with Gino / duo on Brother to Brother, is awesome and definatley worth checking out. Link Below

Jim Baugh I have a Yamaha DX27 that looks similar. It has a voice 'B3 Tease', reminds me of the 60's music. It has lots of pianos but none of them sound like this. Must be the operator. 😃 Great tune my friend. I mainly use my DX as a midi lately. Thanks for sharing


Ray Cochrane

Sounded like an overture for a musical...well done.


Peggy O'Hara

Beautifully done.
