Life's Blessings - steve yeager's take

Here’s my take on ed’s tune “lifes blessing”
In my mind this piece has so many beautiful sections I really ended up mixing up sections to give me what I was going for – which was more of a “church” feeling – looping for example a line cliche idea that turns around using the C/G – D/F# cadence of mm14-15 for a solo/vamp section.
I also liked extending and looping mm 26 – 27 idea to give the ends more push, throwing a Ab maj7#11 substitute for the A-/G on the last times.
