Just practicing on Caravan the cool tune composed by Juan Tizol and made famous by Duke Ellington. Youtuber, Learn Jazz Standards just posted the backing track this morning so I thought Id do a quick run-through. Heres the backing track: http://youtu.be/ARhKkw4fLY4 and be sure to subscribe to their channel as they have lots of jazz tracks to play to!
Yeah, thats me singing too. Just scat singing the melody before I came in on the solo! LOL! I plan on recording this tune one of these days. Such a fun piece. Hope you enjoy!")
