Here again, you are a Master budo!
A simple lead sheet is easy, but a solo jazz piano improvisation demands a high level of musicianship, To make it sound authentic, one need to be comfortable with 7th chords, altered chords, and smooth voice leading.
And you, from what I've heard/learned for many years now, you master this genre brilliantly well.
And I think you got a really good ”jazz-sound” on this one.Thank you budo. ”Jazz -budo” Beautifully played! Enjoyed it much!
Best wishes,
Stig

I really like it. Seeing the standard you've set, I really envy your imagination on the keyboard...
