Flight Of A Butterfly

I was playing a simple chord progression in the key of C major, trying to make each chord sound interesting by adding suitable extensions. As usual, I recorded each take, then picked the one that sounded satisfactory to me and added a solo line. Three tracks with a little ambiance, that’s all. The title occurred to me only after I listened to the finished song a couple of times. The association may seem a bit weird, but that’s just how I perceive it… :wink:

Turning 73 today, and still in love with guitar… True love never fades, I guess.

Happy Birthday, Tomasz. As I’m concerned, the association with the butterfly is absolutely correct… :slight_smile:

David - thank you for listening and the kind words. I recorded the tracks some days ago and saved them as a project, but selected and mixed them this morning. @dlemire60

That sounds nice, you really do well with your mixes. Obviously playing too :grin:

I hope the heat is not getting you down too much on this Birthday, speaking of,

Happy Birthday Tomasz

Your comment has just made my day, Clint, thank you! :slight_smile:
Oh, and one more thing; it was one of your remarks some time (perhaps a year?) ago that made me think more about phrasing while recording a solo line. That’s something I’ll always remember…

Thanks for the kind words! You are well on your way to finding and developing your own voice on the instrument, sir.

Happy 73rd Birthday Tomasz!!!

Nice soothing piece of musical artwork which paints a calming watercolor of a scene one may encounter on a Springtime walk through a sunny meadow with bees, butterflies & hummingbirds flitting to & fro!
Very enjoyable - as usual!!!

Your artistry never fails to impress & bring a smile to my face!!! Thank you for sharing!!!

@CATMAN62 @Prof_Thunder Tod, Ian - thank you, Friends. Your comments are the greatest reward I could ever get for what I’m doing in music; actually you are too kind, I honestly feel I don’t deserve the praise. I’m very happy you liked this piece of music, nonetheless.
