Puttin on the Ritz

I got sidetracked and had some fun with this...   I'm using my Campellone archtop and my Taylor on flat pick rhythm.

    Hey, Daryl,
     
    Very nice job on this really cool, jazzy cover!
     
    Tasty playing, and the creamy tone of that archtop is to die for!
     
    Excellent work, buddy!

    Not only is the guitar to die for, but your voice if perfect for this.  It's as rich and textured as any I've heard in a while.  You really delivered on this.

    All the best,

    Wow, thanks all.  I'm glad that you liked it.
     
    This was written in 1929 by Irving Berlin for the musical of the same name.  Our generation most remembers it from Young Frankenstein.  It was actually Gene Wilder's idea to put it in the film and Mel Brooks was skeptical but later said it was one of the funniest bits in the movie.  The Monster's Song is also a killer song from that movie.  Scotty should record it with his violin, that would be cool.
     
    It's not a difficult tune except for a couple of really fast chord changes but the timing of the vocal takes a little getting used to.

    Hi Daryl,
    the opening line in your vocal has me wondering , are you using something on your voice ? 
    those are some low tones you are hitting there lol
    Yeah , you have a great performance and version of this song .....very nice production 
    your arch top sounds very good ....
    keep up the good work ......

    Thanks all, I'm glad an 80 year old song can still catch people's ear.
     
    Kenny -  No special effects, just me at about the lowest I should ever sing.  I didn't really want to transpose it, but a step higher would have fit well, but then I would be able to sing the high harmony line.  I have a fairly narrow vocal range.
