Another fine collaboration
I don't who I enjoy listening to more--you or drlaine? I
guess that doesn't matter. Very nicely done, a seamless
collaboration.

lovely playing of the piano!
you have a very pleasing touch on the keys ... you caress
them rather than pound them ... what is that saying? ...
"tickling the ivories"? ... d-flat is one of my favorites, by
the way ...

Another hit...
Every time I see you've posted something, I have to swing
by and check it out... love the way you swing the classics
around your head until they're baroque. Great dumming
and piano together, beautiful arrangement. 9899. Can't
wait for your CD! :-)
ttfn,
Drakonis

fingers were flying though!

Cool Jazz, Man!
The Mozart Jazz was one of the first MacJams I
listened to when I joined. (It was over in the weekly
picks.)

When I saw the Bach Jazz, I immedialtely had to
check it out.

I wasn't disappointed.

Too bad...
...Ol' J.S. isn't around to listen and comment, himself.
Really nice sound with the Ivory effects. Wonderful
collaboration. So polished and smooth.

Thank you for posting this!

Holy Jacques Loussier Trio Batman!!
Thanks for your kind words, Cantor. The plug-in costs about 350.00, not
counting the extra hard drive you have to buy to hold all the data. But if
you're a pianist, trying to record decent piano sounds, it's worth it. And it's a
WHOLE lot cheaper than booking studio time!

Good going, this very relaxing and pleasing.

Love the dialog with the drums. You base part of the piano
makes a nice flow in many parts.

Thanks for sharing
