Feature your pianist with this very hip rock ballad. Contemporary in style, ala Bob James, it will sound great when performed on a Rhodes’’ or Synthesizer. Most of the piano solo is written, but does have a nice little ad lib’’ section over simple chord changes near the middle. The band parts really compliment the soloist and make this a very worthwhile selection.
