Nice “up 3 back 2” sequence in the G scale...popular melodic style idea. You always put your signature on these tunes. Meticulously played and sweet tone. Factors we should all strive to achieve!

Thanks, gentlemen. I respect how you hear the musical mechanics, Greg. I’d be happy to think of it as a cool tune, but now I need to figure out the up 3, down 2 thing. The B part?

Really, really well played Janet. Love the bit of swing you get into the tune.
