Many thanks to @tenorviol for April's song of the Month and for @nigeld for asking me to host for April and for kindly providing the notes and the backing tracks.
I've inadvertently continued the Oceanic theme this Month, as I've chosen the final track from Herbie Hancock's Sea themed Album 'Maiden Voyage'. Although travelling by Sea, or by any mode of transport is unlikely for any of us over the coming Month, it does seem as if we are all entering uncharted territory!
I was hoping for a more contemporary tune for April, however there were some questions about reproducing the notes, so a change of tack was required and no better second choice than this hopeful and uplifting number from one of my favourite albums.
I appreciate that April is going to be a challenging Month for some, and finding the opportunity to record might be difficult for various reasons. However, I'm also hoping some will have a little more time on their hands, so clips, videos, recordings, however long or short will be appreciated.
There are a number of alternative versions around. I've posted the original and I'll leave it others to post their own favourite alternative versions, live recordings etc.
Notes and backing tracks can be found..

Note, there are two backing tracks. One at the original tempo and one a little slower.
