So this is my very first recorded attempt at Acoustic jazz. I was listening to some Zane Carney last night and was greatly inspired to write some Jazz of my own, as I've always loved the mellow tones and exciting riffs that Jazz music produces. Although I have my roots in the blues, and will probably write something like this for the blues, I figured I'd give this a shot. It's called "A Mellow Afternoon". Tell me what ya think.

A lovely and organic recording. I like it when you can hear the palm squeaks and the notes 'breathing' like this. Mellow and relaxing, and some really good playing. Nice.

Very cool playing.  I like the squeaks etc.  too.  Though I think they do sometimes ride over the music a bit too much.

Good stuff - wish I could play as well as this though.
