Song: Alone to Wonder / Jazz

Reviewer: Jeff Maguire

Positive Comments: Nice blues/jazz tune, melody is compact and well constructed, harmonies simple but in the right place and suit the melody. Overall very listenable bit of jazz/blues music.Nice to hear someone using vibes again.

Constructive Comments: Drums are to busy, should just play straight, simple swing under the harmony and melody. Way less fills on toms , snare, mostly just cymbal keeping time with the occasional accent. Really nice melody, some of the ” soloing ” is a little crude and simplistic, but I’m guessing this is a bit of a demo, so my advice would be to keep it all simple and let the melody speak with small variations to keep it moving. Just make sure it swings.
