It sounds like it belongs on a spy movie soundtrack! Very catchy.

thanks nac! it does sound like a soundtrack.

for what it's worth, the tune is in Cm.

i switch to diatonic after the first interlude because
i'm not the greatest chro soloist.

yeah, your chops are fine, bro!
granted...a little too self-effacing..
This forum is great for like minded cats. I don't think many outsiders would relate. It's a harp thang....killer original.
Didn't Warner Bro's pick that up?

hi guys! i was so happy to learn how to post a link
that i didn't think much about what to call the topic.

now i can't get rid of the 'chopping block' title. it seems misleading. oh well.

thanks Rubes and Tuckster!
