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 —

Adrian

    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!

    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.
