Default "Blueberry"

A composition and recording of mine from about ten years ago (time flies).

Fairly typical of my coming up with an initial melody line an branching out from that.

Named "Blueberry" for some reason I can't fathom to remember.

Hey Derek,

So much going on in this tune! I hear a jazzy-ragtime-blues type groove, but also some more “modern” motifs as well. Very nice.

Appreciate the listening and comments, and correct
Tele1111, those are some of my influences which I
often mix in together.
