Great vibe and phrasing. Your playing here reminds me of Joey DeFrancesco. Excellent!

Ah man, this is great.  I would kill to have the talent to be able to “have some fun” like that.  Bless you for sharing it!

Having some fun with Charlie Parker's classic Blues for Alice.  Written in the '40s, it follows a wonderful series of changes structured around the blues.  Combines II/V/I progressions and chromatic movement while going through almost every key.  A real workout. 

Thanks as always for your generous time listening, for your comments and for your shares

Blues For Alice

Jazz/Fusion keyboard player, composer and producer.  Marketing, advertising, publishing and sales career.  Originally from Chicago, where I developed a strong appreciation for the blues and classical, and moved to New York, where jazz and the fine arts are so deep.  Key musical influences include Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock, Jimi Hendrix, Joe Zawinul and Weather Report, Chick Corea and Return to Forever, John McLaughlin and the Mahivishnu Orchestra, Stanley Clarke, Scott Henderson and Tribal Tech, Jeff Beck and Jan Hammer, Mike Stern, John Scofield, Pat Metheny, Emily Remler, McCoy Tyner, Bill Evans, John Coltrane, Jimmy Smith, Joey DeFrancesco, Larry Young, Buddy Guy, Santana and Earth Wind & Fire.   Former classical clarinet and piano player.  Unless noted, my music on SoundCloud was composed, recorded and performed using only keyboards.  An avid photographer.  Many covers here are my shots.  To see my photography look for Herbiejazz on Instagram or search for Herbiejazz on Google.  And a big thumbs up to SoundCloud and the SoundCloud community, and so many friends who have joined me to create.  Thank you all.
