Yes, I know this isn't Misty. But while working on Misty, I glanced over at my American Archtop and realized it had been neglected. So I decided to try Shadow again, perhaps slowing down the entry motif "The shadow of your smile...". The big box booms a bit, but delivers a nice sound I think. Now, back to Misty. 😎https://youtu.be/TN7GnQwXn5o

I've been off for a while. Not playing anything, not practicing, doing other things - like reading a book or 25. I wasn't stuck or disheartened or anything dramatic, just away for a bit. After getting my guitar serviced this week, I had to see how it was doing and so I recorded this, again. I had some issues syncing the darn thing and of course there are always flubs, which is OK 'cause I'm not submitting it to the Grammy Committee eh? Also, the pic-in-pic runs on forever after the tune ends - I never thought to check that when editing and I laughed out loud when I saw it on YouTube so I left it in. Don't bother watching that, there is no surprise, other than the fact that there is no surprise. https://youtu.be/w1qfPdhaQrM

I've had a bit of a rough start to the year with a lot of distractions. @Marc-Andre Seguin suggested I just focus on something fun to get back into it. Here is quick take on Blue Bossa to get started again. https://youtu.be/Wxhb_NGvmwc
