I've fallen into the trap of falling down rabbit holes chasing the improvisation bunny, waiting for perfection to emerge before uploading here. Putting an end to that today.
I wanted to attempt a ballad and thought it would make for easier improvisation. In many ways it turned out to be the opposite. 🙃
I chose the Oscar Peterson/Prez version of the tune and am copying Barney K's comping style - just straight quarters, which I think fits the circumstances.
Any constructive feedback welcomed!
