Jazz Blues in G

Written and Recorded in 1990

This piece of music was originally written as a sequel part of a closing track for a conceptual work, which was divided in two; the first half was a ‘reprise’ of the opening track and the second half was this short jazz blues stuff. The concept was to provide a series of my original compositions that would reflect my personal recognition of Pop Music in various ways. In other words, everything featured after the ‘reprise’ could be exempted from the concept itself, hence here we go with such old fashioned 12 bar blues!


As you can hear in a ghost track, it originally featured a voice part that delivered a lyric called Goodnight. When I made this video, more than a couple of decades later than the demo recording, I tried to separate this section from the preceding ‘reprise’ section to treat it as an individual work and by doing so, its lyric also lost its meaning. Thus I tried to remove the voice part from the audio track and changed its title to this simpler one.
