Skylark -- jazz piano solo on Yamaha CP300

I took another look at Skylark. It is such a wonderful tune to improvise on. It has a lot of emotional resonance already built into the structure of the song. This version is very similar to the first post of Skylark, except on the Yamaha CP300. I think I settled down and played fewer notes on this one. Again, I am pushing the reharmonizations - mainly by using chord substitutions but keeping the voicings of the chords fairly simple. I really do love to play this tune. There is so much in it to work with.

Thanks for listening.

awesome sounds 7note... what is the small box on the left side of the guitar? I was thinking a USB interface - but then I saw the blinking light on your control panel and decided that was probably the CP300 recording. Is it a pre-amp for external monitors?

@eklotzko It was a small outboard compressor I was trying out.
