The voice is playing it too safe. The guitar is nice. Shaking the head so much is rather distracting. Maybe watching vids of your performance will help identify these things. The overall performance wasn't bad. It had a rather pleasant feel to it.
This beautiful and haunting melody was written by Ron Anthony the LA based guitarist who became a member of the Sinatra entourage i.e his rythym section in1986.The lyrics are by Sammy Cahn,originally they read'some cool deejay across the way plays a Wes Montgomery score' an allusion to the jazz feel of the song but I think Ron became a little apprehensive about using the name of Wes (known throughout the jazz world of course) so in a trice Sammy Cahn changed the lyric to West Side Story score.
Gee, so nice , Thanks for uploading this nice work of yours. I didn't get to hear you play the guitar way back when.. but maybe you were infatuated with the piano at that time . So nice ,so personal , I wish I had gotten this point earlier . All the best ,Bob
I've previewed 3 of your videos. Good, good, good. Okay, damn good. You are so easy to listen to and your guitar playing/arrangement is excellent. I hope we will all be hearing more from you in the near future.
How wonderful to hear this beautiful song again so sensitively performed!!! Many thanks for sharing this and compliments to Ms Hubka. I first heard Shirley Bassey sing this on an album that's long out of production and now unavailable so it's a treat to have this (different but lovely) version on my favourites.
How very beautiful - 'It's always 4am' is a special song for me - I heard Shirley Bassey sing it first on a (now unavailable) album. Thank you for giving the words such magic - you've made a man in Australia very happy :) Kym.
It' s a seven string , good for a bottom b , unusual choice ,
