The peacocks (A timeless place)

This ballad is so beautiful but not so much played.Composed by Jimmy Rowles.
In this song you will find a beautiful example of unusual intervals that break the rules...like a major third on a min7/b5 chord that becomes a major seventh on a dominant 7.

Perfect! I am writing a novel in which one of the characters plays a piano solo version of this and your performance is spot on for helping me to imagine it.

@mgharrisauthor Sounds intriguing :-). Could be interesting reading it when it's finished. Glad to raise any kind of immagination and inspiration :-). Cheers.
