"The Summer Knows" from the film "The Summer of '42". A beautiful song by the great composer Michel Legrand.

"Scarborough Fair" - A little Sunday night rumination on this beautiful English ballad.

“Falling Grace” by Steve Swallow. One of the great many compositions written by Steve. This one is like a Berklee standard and is a great song to explore with. I worked on this with Gary way back and 45 years later it’s still fun to play and see where the music takes you. I was looking through my files from when I was studying with Gary. He was a great teacher. Very open, organized and systematic. I uploaded the lead sheet he gave me with the chord scales listed. On the back of the lead sheet he wrote his system of chord scales as applied to improvisation. I uploaded those to google docs.

Dan here are both parts.

download the single part and add your part.

here´s the famous crystal silence in our version. not really completley happy with the recording but i take it as work in progress...

it´s the only less stressfull to play number in our corea burton program since it´s a ballad but to play it nice and get a tasteful solo on it is as difficult as the fast speed stuff.
