With warm summer days a distant memory - in this hemisphere at least - here's something intended to make the approaching winter more bearable.  With acknowledgements to Sade, George Gershwin, Bananarama! and Steely Dan plus a few embellishments from yours truly. I gave my trusty Tascam DP-32SD a workout with a few empty tracks to spare. You'll hear Hofner "Cavern"  Hi-Series Bass, Martin X-series Rhythm, Strat leads and Yamaha E363 keyboard and percussion. No attempt at vocals for obvious reasons!

Smooth piece of music. Nicely arranged and performed.
There are only three kinds of drummers. Those who can count, and those who can't.

very cool arrangement Johnny....first off I loved that Sade song...along with Steely Dan so this is a big cool thing...and I don't know why but as I was listening I was hearing Mark Knopfler singing a cover of "Smooth Operator" and it was very good...kind of like the Sultans of Swing.... woa...I just woke up from a dream...
