Hi Claudia, Marco and the band,

Excellent performance and recording of a kind of music that' s not much seen around these days.

You so it beautifully.

The brass section sound too real to be coming from the keyboard.

You should be touring Europe now.

Best Regards,

Abel

Thanx a lot. The brass section is real, were invited musicians from a big band that did it.

As you know TV shows artists do synclips. Whem we go there we use a minimum of musicians for figuration, cause they have low budget!

Everything you listen from us is my own studio audio production.

Best regards

This is a great rendition of a great song. Really enjoyable.

Thank you for sharing.

P.S.

I think you would make a great job of : "What Do You Want To Make Those Eye's At Me For". Please consider it.

I like the big band back up.. Ever try to do a country and western number?. You two would be perfect for a duet of "Tumbling Tumbleweeds".. Check out Ken Curtis rendition on you tube.. Joe Foti (Jimmy & the Crestones)
