By the way, Janis sang Summertime at Woodstock, so it's a candidate for the BossBR.net Woodstock Festival.

This is kinda what I love about the blues(not that Id call this blues) but I just love different versions of the same song, I can almost listen to them back to back and not grow tired of the same song..."Key To The Highway" for example.

This song kinda reminded/inspired me to look/dig a lil deeper into a song my buddy's band has been playing "Take Five"...Ive been listening to all the versions on Groovshark, and am really diggin the Chet Atkins version.

Thanks for posting bout this song...I feel like I learned something.

Here's a nice jazz version of Summertime by Lars Kongshem.

It was recorded on a BR-532. Here are some details about the song from his website:

"Summertime"  (2002) [time: 3:30]
  • This is my cover of the jazz standard by George Gershwin, updated with an acid jazz groove.
  • Arranged, performed, and engineered by Lars Kongshem, 2002.
  • Electric guitar: Gibson Les Paul Custom, 1970 vintage.
  • Drum programming and amp modeling: Boss BR-532.
  • Bass: Electric guitar played through bass emulator.

Didn't expect this one to go to 2 pages

Thanks 64G, I obviously didn't look hard enough

I'd love to do something with this, maybe I will soon.

Hey Sprocket, I'm the same with some stuff. One melody, one set of words, so many different sounds and feelings!!
That's just one of the things I love about this place, you hear something and think about it differently maybe, or if it's something we haven't heard before???----we all learn something new all the time.

I would have put 'quote' bits in here somewhere but still haven't worked out how to do it properly
