This is a great standard tune by Hoagy Carmichael. The challenging part is keeping the rhythm steady and the swing going at such a slow tempo. I wanted to set the beat without a metronome, so there are some tempo variations in it. This is more just plain vanilla playing instead of performing, so it's pretty laid back and informal. I enjoyed doing it. I hope you enjoy listening to it. I used a variation on the chord progressions for the A section: F -Em7b5-A7-Dm-Dm7/C-Bm7b5-Bbm7-Eb7-Am7-D7-Gm7-Db7-C7-F My other recorder broke, so I'm trying out the new Zoom H4n recorder, just using the built in microphones. I have the unit 18" over the dampers, inside the case, pointing toward the back of the piano. I tweaked the sound in Logic with phase inversion, reduced stereo width, EQ, compression, reverb and an AdLim.
