Comment on this midi file of "Nothing You Can Do About It":

I have spend a small week (in between) working on 'Nothing you can do about' starting from Jan Hentschel's (Sweden) version from your website. Jan Hentschel's version was based on Manhattan Transfer's version and it was a great starting point (thanks Jan). But as I liked Jay Graydon's version so much I put his Wave file next to the midi file and copied the parts as closely as I could. It was not easy, but I think that I got pretty close. The work was intended as a basis for a score, so I did not spend time on things like pitch bends on the bass etc. That's for the next guy :-) I changed the end as I did not care to much for Jay's end (sorry buddy), and added some extra voices so our singers had something more to do. Also left the sax-lead and synth (cool solo) from Jan (Man.Tr. version), but volume is 0. Hope you like it and that it is a help to someone. Great song, hail to Jay Graydon!

ROXANN (45,7 kb) - Written by Jay Graydon, Bill Cantos, Valerie Hoebel.

This midi file is also recorded by Jan Hentschel, Sweden, and here are his comments:

I'm a guitar player and a fan of West Coast Music since many years. The last few years I've discovered the possibility of making music on my computer. Although this can never replace the feeling of playing together with other musicians I find it a fascinating tool. I feel I'm learning a lot about arranging music by playing songs this way. It has also given me a new respect for the geniosity of guys like Jay Graydon and David Foster. I use Digital Orchestrator Pro for sequencer and a Roland SC-7 sound module.

Comment on "Roxann":

I never knew it could be so hard to do a guitar solo on a keyboard.
