My Sonar 8 homage to the Glen Miller version of the classic. Originally written by F. W. Meacham in 1885 for piano. Glenn Miller recorded the song in 1942 in a swing arrangement by Jerry Gray.

Hello World!, I say WELCOME. I'm a 57 years old classic rock fan and musician. For the most part I only do covers of classic rock and folk songs but am known from slipping in an occasional ballad or instrumental here and there too.

Story behind the song
The main computer I was using to do all my musical explorations (midi, home recording) had a major hardware setback. Took me about 6 months of now and again work to get it back running, first thing I had to try was my new toy Cakewalk's Sonar 8. The midi arrangement I have been tweaking for years on and off never producing anything final with it until today. Usually I will process the final mix with Adobe's Audition 3 but after listening to the master mix I thought there was nothing some processing could add to it... so just from WAV to MP3 to upload. A departure from what I usually do, but very appropriate to celebrate my music PC up and running. Hope you like it!

No lyrics... *just* the music. Swing!
