"How High The Moon" with Eva Scholten on vocals

Hi all,

Here's a gypsy jazz tribute to the classic 1951 Les Paul and Mary Ford arrangement of "How High The Moon," with the amazing Eva Scholten on multitracked vocals:

I've also posted a transcription of the solo on my Soundslice channel for anybody interested in learning a few licks.

Hope you enjoy —

I was just thinking about this the other day, wondering when you were going to release it! ahha Great man!

Love it all around. Andrews Sisters vibe on the lyrics. Adrian clones all over the screen. Embedded "soundslice"-esque transcription. Arnoud always looks cool and in the pocket. Well done all!

Great version! If that doesn't brighten your day, you have real problems. Thank you!!!

I love it how she was doing different facial expressions during different takes, fun. Awesome video Adrian!

Fab! Great vocals and perfect accompaniment. Good t osee some folks having FUN with the GJ style, mixing it up with good songs and singers opens up a lot more variety, not just shredding.

So, as that was always one of my faves I can recommend this version too; definitely not GJ (check out his right hand technique) but the mighty Jeff with a multi-tracked Imelda May stick to the original arrangement.

Fantastic Adrian!

Two criticisms, no echo! And you left out my favourite part at the end, the octave slide.

But I love it. Well done.

I've been waiting for this for 3 years! It sounds fantastic. Amazing work.
