One great big BRAVO to you. You took a tune written (or at least as I know, last copyrighted in 1915 and made it sound just as good as any professional can. As a tribute to Milt, I am impressed. I personally would have loved a slight hint more of vibrato from the resonator fans but, you did a great job of imitating Milt's ability to play through the bar lines. I really like your rendition. I wish more of the membership would acknowledge your endeavor.

Thanks Vibeman , I have a soft spot for this tune as it was on one of my first Jazz lp's
when I was a teenager , I think it was Milt live in Montreux with Oscar Peterson & Joe Pass ,
the composition was also an hommage to Puccini "Madame Butterfly" , which I happen to like very much as well.
As for the vibrato , the motor on my Musser was very touchy that day and I'm lucky it worked at all
on this take , since it quit on me in the middle of some other tunes...
thanks for your input.
J'adore !
