I Left My Heart in San Francisco- January Challenge

My Entry for January
I Left My Heart In San Francisco

This is a Big Band arrangement played on Technics SX-KN 5000 Keyboard.
I tried to find some good voices and backing Style but the Technics 5000 is not quite able to compete with the Tyros Keyboards.

I would listen to the Big Band when they were popular in the 1950-60’s

Hope you enjoy my arrangement.

Hello there Bobbo,
That was a fine performance of this great number and the KN 5000 was a good keyboard I used to play one I enjoyed listening my good friend. :D :D :D

Hi there I have played from the age of 13 and all my music is played in a sort of dance tempo style. Have worked in nearly all the North East clubs over the years. That gave me a good grounding. Cheers.

Hello Bobbo, Liked that lots. It's a piece that I can't play very well. I had the chance of having a technics but I could not get to grips with it.
Having listened to that, I almost left my heart in the GV Hospital but they managed to get me together again and kept me going. :)
Thanks for posting. Regards, Den.

Hi!
A great song and well played. Years ago an elderly neighbour asked me to play it for him. At the end he was crying. It turned out it was the city he and his wife visited together before she went on. Sadly he has joined her. Ken S.
