Summertime

By Richard Sleigh • August 4, 2011

This is one of those songs that has been kicking around in my head for years. I heard a version of this by the Modern Jazz Quartet many years ago and they used a repeating riff to set the mood. I have played with this on long car rides, on my porch, sitting outside, times when I have been in solitude.

I hope you enjoy it…
