Default 7 jazz guitar recordings

I was last online in October due to working on this project. I remastered 7 old recordings of mine to form an EP called simplicity.

The track listings are as follows. Would be great to hear your thoughts on any of these that interest you! The link below should play!

One Note Samba
Thomas the Tank Engine (Theme) Feat. Hussey and the Hounds
I’ll See You in My Mreams
Summertime
Nature Boy
Someone to Watch Over Me
Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas

Did not want to sign up on Spotify so here is a link to clips from the album:

Nice playing and arrangements and a smooth sound.

Very enjoyable listening, Mark. While I am a jazz lover, some jazz guitarists play so many notes that it just seems like gymnastics rather than music. You obviously have the chops to play whatever you want, but the taste and restraint in your arrangements makes them a cut above!

Thanks to you all for the kind words. Really nice of you. I'have my moments where i get over excited and play too many notes but you are quite right, its really more gymnastics than musical. I prefer just a good melody so i kept it simple here

Thanks Hayden, really appreciate your comment. I'll be releasing a number of original tunes in a few months. Keep a look out
