Outstanding, man! I especially love that I can see all the chords you're playing, too.

I'm almost sure, but just in case, it's in standard tuning, right?

Thanks!

[alkirob]

Yeah, standard tuning.

Thanks a lot for your comment.

dude that was awesome our jazz orchestra at my high school plays this song you did really good no lie.

[alkirob]

I appreciate it. Thanks.

You do a very good cover of this song...made famous by my father "Jesse Belvin".

I appreciate all the kind comments about my dad..."THANKS".....,

Jesse Belvin Jr.

it's a wonderful song i loved it for the past 40 years and still do....... :D

Beautiful rendition all around. I'm sure Oscar Moore, who I consider the best for this song, would have approved too. His playing on the trio version with Nat King Cole is superlative and really would be hard to surpass. But this is one of the best solos I have heard on Youtube. I hope you are planning on going into the entertainment field to keep this wonderful music going. You have the talent.

I love your cover, and would really like to serenade a special someone with this song. :) Do you happen to have the chords still? Thanks! :)

WHAT? Nice one. Your father made "Goodnight My Love" famous, though after much research, my firm and I still stand divided. . . Was your father famous????
