Just how I imagine it would be to, he he he, and all... Very spicey, and quite tastey too - You keep uping the anti, my friend - You keep putting out these tastefully arranged, and played pieces. Very nice! Really dign' this - Is Ringstad a MJR? Nice playn! I wonder how the title and concept came about... - And now, I'm really feeln' this lack of a way to download tunes today.

Anyhoo, thanks for sharing this - Really nice work - D

Dion, Eric's not yet on MJ. He's full time music though. Berklee Grad. Did the wild funky guitar in an Intel commercial awhile back. Super gentleman, frigthening talent. I think he listened to the progression twice and then did this.

The concept, was me showing MJ to some music friends, and playin some McBoy tunage. This in turn led to a discussion of his considerable talents, Miami, Latin flavored jazz, Songs with more than 2 chords, owning a bar, owning a bar in South Beach.

I mapped it out on my own and then I had Eric back to lay in his parts. I hope our McBoy likes it, I just sort of appropriated his monikor for the tune that grew out of that discussion.

Was playing with my cats, with the fishing-pole-with-bird-on-the-end while listening to this grooviness. It was the perfect soundtrack for their high, graceful backflips. And, yes, they just confirmed that they enjoyed this excellent jam as much as I did. Bravo!

completely interesting from top to bottom... John you also have incredible production skills... but the playing here is stellar... what talent in this post... there is no weak link... I find as I listen to KTB posts, I'm wanting to be a fly on the wall to check out your whole approach... it's always more than worth the time it takes to listen

thanx for this

Scott, thanks. I appreciate the comment re: takin a listen. I thought your recent synth work and production work on "oh come Emanuel" was on par with Peter Gabriel.

check out Scott's

South Beach feel beautifully but what do I know being from up north. All I saw was ice cold beers. Anyway once again you've posted a great up beat song and Eric puts the icing on the cake (beers).

Z, appreciate the vote. I really like how this came out. Normally I stay in the safety of monor keys, but this one even my wife likes.

Cool Tribute, K &mdash 12/10/06 - 10:10:24 PM
No doubt, you and Eric are working behind the bar at MCBoy's.

Great mixology from a couple of top-notch players.

Bravo

Dancing the soul &mdash 12/13/06 - 07:02:48 AM
Very dazzling track, lots going on. High performance. High Energy. Its not often that you can sit down and listen to a piece of music that truly dances the soul:- Mizieya

Nice nice stuff. Usually am not catched by jazz, but sometimes .. like here in this interesting piece, with a blend of dance music and circus music and well anything .. Very inspiring. Nice guitar work too!

Cori, thanks for the thumbs up. This is a pretty big departure for me in terms of writing. Hardly any minor chords! glad you like it

You read my mind. When I was thinking south beach, I wanted to write something that would work like MSM. My solos are Midi, but Eric's were totally off the cuff. Thx for stopping by

Nice travelogue &mdash 12/22/06 - 10:51:14 AM
This would go nicely as background to one of those travelogue films showing the key attractions of some resort area.

I would like to hear a nice head to go with it that you could come back to at the end so it wouldn't have ended so abruptly.

Nice chops on all the musicians.

travelougue &mdash 12/23/06 - 01:52:40 PM
Damien, I agree it does have a up beat vibe that would probably go well with a timeshare pitch :-) If it makes you think of warm summer nights and cold beer, all the better. welcome to MJ

It's really catchy... &mdash 12/25/06 - 05:11:26 AM
I downloaded this as my first Christmas Day tune to listen to. I'm glad that I did.

I'll definitely be paying more attention to KTB from now on. The rhythm, tune and production are all first class.

Excellent guitar player &mdash 01/26/07 - 08:35:46 PM
Cool song guys! I have not been here long enough to understand the Mcboy connection ( I see now it is Eric Ringstad on guitar is he Mcboy... no matter ). Sounds great to my ears!

It keeps a theme and stays with it. Great guitar and synth work. Normally I dont like instrumentals but this has pro written all over it.

I love the whole song...but the synth sure got my attention...this is ready for prime time and is as good if not better than a lot of stuff I listen in the radio.....Thank you.

[ Reply to This ]
Thanks &mdash 04/02/07 - 04:35:48 PM
Enrique, coming from you, thats high praise indeed. I appreciate it. The synth solo's were mostly me :-), but I record using MIDI which allows me to "go in" and clean up the clams.

Any time I see McBoy's name... &mdash 04/02/07 - 12:24:15 PM
...my ears perk up. What a monster...

Anyway..."I'll have a Herradura margarita on the rocks, with salt, please"..."Wow! She can take my order, anytime!"...

Hmmm...nice place...music's smokin'. I take it you're the keyboard guy? Right in the pocket. Great, great sound.

Nice guitar. Shades of Larry. In fact...this whole tune has shades of Mr. Carlton. Great job.

Foot in mouth if I'm wrong...but I must ask: did you do the organ track on that short lived McBoy tune in honor of James Brown?

[ Reply to This ]
appreciate it &mdash 04/02/07 - 04:40:41 PM
Bob, I appreciate you checkin out some earlier posts. I am indeed the Keyboard guy. I love Larry C. He's got such a great technique and sound.

Unfortunately, no i didn't do the organ track on that McBoy track. I only wish i could play like that :-) Too funky.
