Wow very cool. Yeah this is a really nice tune. I'll check Mitch Kashmar's version. But it's got to be much harder to play on diatonic! Excellent good bend control and intonation. I'm impressed. I like the 'my favorite things' reference too.

Wow thanks a lot for these

Wow thanks a lot for these kind words! I'm glad that you like it and I'm happy you found reference :) Thanks a lot! BTW it was played on diminished tuned harmonica. I'm playin this harmonica for 3 monthes and I really dig it.

Great job!

This is such a cool tune - Horace Silver, right? I'm sure I've got the album somewhere but I can't find it - now I've heard this I'm going to look a lot harder!

Thanks a lot :) Yes you are

Very cool Latin take - some very tricky bends in there that you handled well - liked the high end @1:49. Cool melody lines that flow nicely. Thanks for sharing this one
