video: In a Mellow Tone

This is a Duke Ellington classic. I’ve recorded a couple versions of this. You’ll get a video with acoustic piano, plus a bonus MP3 only of a Rhodes version.

Here’s the Rhodes version:

  5. HEY, it swings!! I like your left hand's voicings, they sound modern and light, and your improvised line is inventive and full of dynamics.

  9. I liked this a lot - those Monty Alexander/Oscar Peterson bluesy lines, the laid back feel, and the tension release thing (at around 2.51) - lots to study in this one. Bravo

  10. Hey VB, this is really nice. I hope you're still going to do Porkpie someday. There's a guy I discoverd recently who does a great job with it named redavide1. Come check out some of my vids too.
