((MUSIC)) David Sanborn's "Summer"

Tak finally does a cover!

This is a great song especially for this season called "Summer"(how fitting!). It's off the 1987 album "A Change Of Heart" by the smooth jazz saxophone player David Sanborn, but the song itself was composed by Ronnie Foster, one of the producers of the album. It's a cool album, so I highly recommend it to anyone who likes smooth jazz type stuff.

This has become one of my recent favorite songs even though the album itself came out in the 80's. The original version is played on a saxophone, but I decided to make a guitar rock version! It's just one of those non-guitar songs that also totally work as guitar music.

Oh, and check out the Hawaiian "Aloha" shirt I'm wearing in the vid for the increased effect!! LOL

First off, thanks for the comment, I'm glad you enjoyed it! I guess I went crazy on the video editing, didn't I? LOL It's actually a habit of mine. :-p

And I AM thinking of doing a cover of "The Dream" and a few others as well at some point actually. ;-)

I've always felt that this song should be covered by a guitar player. Nice job! The only thing I did'nt like was all the video editing. I feel it's much better to see the performance as is. A great job otherwise. I'd like to hear you're interpertation of " The Dream "
