Think I heard the whole cafe stand up and clap then, not sure why no backing track used other than it might not fit in very well with the way you played it
Dat fat momma plays damned gooood

ps love the way you attached it,how's that done

 

[Jonesy]

Wish I had such good warts.

I often prefer to not play to backing tracks, and do like to play ballads unaccompanied.

Thanks everyone for your very kind words!

It is done via some coding that unfortunately is not yet available for most normal forum use, partly due to server resources and partly licensing issues.

Bari, bari nice.

Me too but in my case it's because I can't keep in time with them

 

[Colin the Bear]

I find if you write your own with the BiaB or similar and pick a tempo that suits your idea of how it should go, you'll have less problems keeping in time. The only BT I currently have problems with is a Hal Leonard version of Harlem Nocturne. It's a nice sounding track but I want to play it a little quicker than it goes. I have to really listen and wait for him to catch up lol.

I know I'm way late to the party, but I have been working on this a long time. The backing track was created from from Band in a Box Real Tracks. See if you can guess what instrument I am playing (trying to play).

Sop? or was this a rhetorical question...

 

[Pete Thomas]

Sop? or was this a rhetorical question...

I thought it was a mezzo, and if so a very gallant and noble effort need.

 

[Colin the Bear]

What's a mezzo?

 

[trimmy]

What's a mezzo?

Will you behave!

 

[gladsaxisme]

It must be one that didn't hit the concrete too many times if it was a mezzo,very nice jbtsax,it's good to be different

Ps I can hear a hissing sound again

 

[Chris]

Very nice jbtsax..

Chris..

 

[Colin the Bear]

OK I googled it. In between alto and sop pitched in F. And very rare. Just when you thought you didn't have GAS.

Sounds like a Taragota to me.
