about

"Liner Notes" - J D

J D is - you guessed it! - something that got started a long time ago and got finished much later. This one started out in the practice rooms at Wittenberg, and a very good friend of mine, J. D. liked it alot from the start, hence the name of the song. It was always a juxtaposition of latin and swing, but originally the swing part was a different theme.

The first version of J D actually was finished in the early 90's, but fell victim to a hard drive crash. It took awhile to re-create these tracks, but I think it helped to progress them further than they might have otherwise.

So, the latin themes in J D remained pretty much intact and the swing sections were similar to the original, but the piano solo and the marimba solo were recreated later.

The latest version adds the Hackdaddy trumpet as the primary melody instrument, with a 2nd trumpet filling out the track in a few places. The piano solo has been chopped in half to make room for a trumpet solo. The result is a track that is quite different than the previous versions, with a much fuller and complete sound.
