Second visit here Allen,great harmonization and I simply love the tone of your guitar(beautiful instrument) your choice of chord-voicing here is sublime, loved it ,cheers Vic.
HOW DELIGHTFUL ! I`m just working on my own arr. of this gorgeous melody and did a search for some ideas . You`ve given me a bag full . You play beautifully with a wonderful tone . I`VE SUBSCRIBED ! Thanks , Brian
I am a HUGE fan of Johnny Smith. I have uploaded a few of my attempts at playing his arrangements. Some I found to be a bit challenging. Check them out when you have time.
Just beautiful, played nice and mellow the way it should be. I have an old Silvertone but the high E string tends to slip off the fretboard when pressed. I'll never part with it though.
Hi Allen, great (combined)arrangement from 2 Maestro's in Jazz. Very good played with beautiful tone and intimate sound,I love Victor young's compositions, check out my "Stella by Starlight" tell me what you think, great listening to you my friend beautiful style, Vic.
Hey, Bob! You've left us all waiting for a follow-up to your beautiful 'Til There was You. That was quite some time ago! I think you must be having too much fun in the neighborhood or too many home projects in the basement! Lay down your hammer, and try wielding your axe!
hi thats very nice playing and interessting for me thats this kind of playing is from the chords etc. absolut different from the chords for my fingerpicking style, best regards friedel
As promised there's the picture in the background. I find the smoke rising horizontally interesting however 'o) Needless to say, this is a beautiful tune and you play it so well. Thanks. 5*****

I'd forgotten about Johnny Smith and how I spent a bit of time, long ago, learning an arrangement of his "Old Folks" of an album long gone ;)
Excellent music & playing,
Thanks, Hashi

Hey Hashi. Thank you.
I play Johnny's arrangement of "Old Folks" There are a few painful finger stretches in that arrangement. His fingers must be a foot long.
