A very relaxing piece of jazz! Thank you for posting it!
I never heard it before, but I will look for Keith Jarretts interpretation.

thank you for listening!  the KJ version is on At The Blue Note.  actually there are many great standards on that CD set, it's fantastic.

Hello Budo,
a beautiful music recording with an exciting chord sequence. Very interesting, captures the atmosphere well.
Best regards

A sweet Bossa (it gets the vibe). Something Pop and Jarrett too !

thank you so much Borealis.  i'm glad you hear some Keith Jarrett in there, of course he is a huge inspiration and one of my heroes.

here's a beautiful ballad that doesn't get performed a lot, "I'll Close My Eyes."  Keith Jarrett did a great version with his trio (probably not a big surprise ) but i haven't heard played much otherwise.  i didn't change too much with the harmony but there are a few tweaks in there.

Truly a beautiful dreamy and sensual piece Budo!
The notes slide away rustling like on silk, an excellent taste and interpretation of this evergreen piece.

At first - very nice ending   
And , this is again very beautiful.  I love these slow pieces. I can, as the song says, close my eyes and just enjoy listening. Slow tempo and relaxed mood. Bravo! Well played.

You could create a post too, Slow relaxing music from ”budo’s Music Library”. Great idea to collect these, you have many. It’s very difficult and take time to jump and search for these relaxing pieces. It would be really nice to hav at least some of them in one post…….?
Due to new uploads all the time, the songs quickly drown in the crowd…..

Best wishes,

thank you so much Stig for your comments.  i like the idea of just closing your eyes and listening.  somehow i missed that meaning of the title good idea to collect things together.  i always just make a new post by habit.
