Aebersold Volume 113 is one of my favourite playalongs. It is different from the usual Aebersold treatment in that it ONLY features a piano as backing. It was originally designed to accomodate singers but of course it is great for guitarists too. You can practise a more intimate approach and the guitar blends nicely with the piano. The comping feel of tha piano is superb. The songs are:
- Body And Soul
- I Can't Get Started
- Dancing In The Dark
- I Didn't Know What Time It Was
- Embraceable You
- I Only Have Eyes For You
- I Could Write A Book
- I Thought About You
- Love Is Here To Stay
- Someone To Watch Over Me
- When I Fall In Love
- Where Or When
Every song is available in two keys (for high and low voice). Body and Soul (C/A); When I Fall In Love (Eb/C); I Can't Get Started (Bb/G); I Could Write A Book (Bb/Ab); Embraceable You (F/Db); Love Is Here To Stay (Eb/C); I Only Have Eyes For You (A/G); I Didn't Know What Time It Was (F/D); Dancing In The Dark (Eb/C); I Thought About You (C/Bb); Someone To Watch Over Me (C/Ab); Where Or When (Eb/C).
I did a few takes on "I Thought About You". One was with the Tal Farlow and one with the Ibanez FG 100. The Tal sounds a bit fatter but the Ibanez sounds great too. The takes are pretty similar. Wonder which sound you prefer ...
Excellent Playing!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat playing on both. The Tal Farlow sound is more comfortable to my ears.
