[Harp-L] A nice feeling and a bit of a milestone



Sat in tonight on chromatic in a pub in town.  It was a latin gig mainly with some latin versions of jazz standards thrown in.  It was with a guitarist, a double bass player and a percussionist.  I've just played the head on Blue Bossa and started the solo and suddenly realise that the guitar and bass have sneakily dropped out and it's just me and the percussionist.  Anyway i did it, improvised on two choruses keeping to the changes, before the guitar and bass came back in, lots of applause and good feedback from the other guys.  It feels like a bit of milestone, in my 18 month or so career as a chromatic player.  Note to self - good thing to practice because it sounds really effective.

I just wanted to share a nice feeling before i head off to bed!

Thanks 

Bill
