Me playing a few tunes

Turkle · Posted: Mon Mar 06, 2017 7:44 am Post subject: Me playing a few tunes

Howdy. I've been posting here for many years but never a recording of me playing. I just recorded a few tunes at a rehearsal with my pianist and I thought a couple of them came out nicely, so I wanted to post them here.

If you have a few minutes to listen to them, I'll thank you for spending the time with me. Your thoughts, reactions, questions, criticisms, and anything else at all welcomed. Cheers!

Nice clips man. "Pure Imagination" was beautiful. I'm gonna add that to my list of tunes to learn. Don't know why I never thought of that one before.

Thanks!!!

Thanks, folks!

fabiopereirabr, cheers from America, thank you for listening! I know the internet is old news by now, but it's pretty great that a fellow trumpet player from Brazil got to hear my recording. I appreciate it. Neat.

Nicely done! The styling is right on. You obviously have a well trained ear.

Thanks so much, folks! This is my regular Sunday night duo. We play, just the two of us, at a dive bar in Queens every week. (It has a piano!) We also bring in guest singers regularly. We've been playing together for about a year and a half now and have a book with over 130 tunes in it. We play the occasional wedding, community function, and whatever else we can hustle up (you never know!).

Cheers and thanks for listening!

[quote="Turkle"]Howdy. I've been posting here for many years but never a recording of me playing. I just recorded a few tunes at a rehearsal with my pianist and I thought a couple of them came out nicely, so I wanted to post them here.

Thanks for sharing! I just love that dreamy silky tone! Caring each note!
Carry on!
