Default "Corcovado - Quiet nights" - A.J. Jobim - fingerstyle solo guitar

Jobim wrote a number of great songs with always very interesting melodies and harmonies.Here is my attempt to bring down both with a groovy latin rhythm on to one guitar.

Hope you like it.....

Many greetings

Great arrangement - a little too fast for me and the bass is a bit too 'bum ckick' for me - you're a stunning player though very capable of nailing those big busy arrangements - very impressive
