Fantastic

Beatiful tone and chord voicings and swinging time

One thing in this situation If you could minimize the foot tapping sound it would result in a better recording.

@gbtayc Haha that's a funny comment. Actually I like the foot tapping and try to get my students to tap so they feel the time physically and not intellectually and also develop the coordination (much like a drummer) to gain over the bar line techniques. Also, I wasn't going for a studio recording here. Just a solo guitar take on Dolphin Dance.

Ciao,

Steve Giordano

@jzguru1 It sure sounds like it can go on a cd to me. I'd buy it. Speaking of which do you have any solo or trio music for sale? Love the arrangement.

Philly's finest! Gorgeous music.

@jzguru1

It's a beautiful rendition and could be a keeper without the foot tap

But I realize that is not what you were going for.

I don't know if you can repeat this level of performance at will but this sounds like an on moment to me.

Best to you.

All one can say is nice! The guitar looks like an HR incognito,

Thank you, thank you, thank you!! I discovered your website a few months back and continue to be inspired EVERY time I hear you play. What an absolutely beautiful rendition of this tune. Really makes me want to pick up my instrument and explore. You prove in your playing that possibilities are endless...God bless!
