[Harp-L] Re: Jazmaan Sings/Mike Polesky Plays on YouTube

["jazmaan@xxxxxxxxxxx" <dmf273@xxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry the vocal amp wasn't turned up a little more, but it wasn't really intended to be a recording session.   More of an exploratory jam for the musicians to get to know my tunes and each other.   It was a thrill for me to have such wonderful backing musicians and everybody had a blast so the next step is some small live gigs around the westside of L.A.

After going back and listening to the audio, I hear that the vocals were also low in the beginning got turned up a bit later on in the set.   After editing out all the chat I've got 15 songs with 96 minutes of music:


I'll Remember April/April Skies*
Scrapple From the Apple*
Round Midnight
Star Eyes*
Old Devil Moon
Temptation
Groovin High*
Tin Tin Deo*
Chi Chi*
Easy to Love
Stranger in Paradise
Up Jumped Spring/Valse Hot*
The Song is You
Wave
This Time the Dream's On Me

*The asterisk songs feature my vocalese lyrics.

I'll probably post all these on a torrent site as several people have expressed interest in hearing them.

Thanks again to Mike Polesky and all the other great musicians who made this such a fun afternoon!

Sorry none of these video clips are quite complete.  The videotaping was kind of a last minute afterthought.   But we do have over 3 hours of audio if anyone's interested.
