A Cool Video from my Concert Two Nights Ago

not the official video but something shot by my future father-in-law from the front row. It's 10 minutes, and you'll hear the end of Ken Basman and I playing "alone together" in 7/4 then launching into "turkey in the straw " then a little spoken thing by me saying good night, and ending with my new arrangement of "Moon River."


"Alone:Together, Turkey and Moon River"

Well, it's not as if we have a lot of traffic right now, but here's another one: Xavier Gibler, Remy Fenoy and me doing Tres Palabras.

I'm sending myself a note to watch at home later. Not a good idea to play music here at work.

Very nice, Doug. Lovely piece. What a fine vocalist, but I wish the recording hadn't been marred by the mic "popping".

THanks, Ron--

Here is the complete version of Alone/Together by guitarist ken Basman and me. In 7/4 of course.

Nice arrangement. It definitely works in 7/4. I also ran it through my head in 6/8 and liked those possibilities, with an almost lilting swing.
