"Feelings" is a 1974 song with lyrics written by Brazilian singer Morris Albert, set to the tune of "Pour Toi," separately composed by Louis “Loulou” Gasté in 1957. Albert recorded "Feelings" as a single and later included it as the title track of his 1975 debut album. The song's lyrics, recognizable by their "whoa whoa whoa" chorus, concern the singer's inability to "forget my feelings of love". Albert's original recording of the song was very successful, performing well internationally. "Feelings" peaked at #6 on the pop and #2 on the Adult Contemporary charts in America.

A theme of a piano provided for a performance simply by this performance. Because an idea with the drum pattern is discussed with the pattern of the base, it's necessary to begin to compose a piano trio. I take the place where you could have a base at an image of a drum a little, to the extent, it seems good in balancing way.My ad lib had become intense hot, but the drum and the base were still. It was difficult to put the small hue of the cord.

About This Song
"Birdland" is a jazz-fusion instrumental composition written by keyboardist Joe Zawinul of Weather Report. The piece made its debut on Weather Report’s 1977 studio album, Heavy Weather. With Birdland at the helm of the album, the song received awards, as well as ranking high on Billboard charts. It became a jazz standard, and entered the set lists of other artists including Buddy Rich, Maynard Ferguson’s big band, The Manhattan Transfer (whose version added lyrics by Jon Hendricks), Quincy Jones, Niacin and The String Cheese Incident.
The first number of Heavy Weather where" Bird Rand" is written by keyboard player Joe Zawinul in Weather Report and is the 8th released album in 1977. This album gets album of the year of jazz in 1977. They're also a bassist and the 2nd album with which Jaco Pastrious participated. "Bird Rand" puts commercial success back and has the charm I don't have in a typical instrumental song.
This melody of Bird Rand was born taking the song recorded in 1 number of the album of an announcement "Zawinul" in 1971 and the part of the live performance as "Doctor Honoris Causa (intention of an honor doctorate)" as a start. Before Jacquot joined a band, live recording by a performance only by a pure keyboard was already recorded already, indeed the features of "Bird Rand" are picking "and" performance by harmonics with fret lessness by Jaco Pastors and a base for listening to a performance of an album and understanding.
Jazz Club Birdland
"Birdland" marked the peak of Weather Report's commercial career with the release of Heavy Weather. With the addition of Jaco Pastorius, the band was able to push its music to the “height of its popularity”, and with that came "Birdland." Weather Report's most commercially successful composition, "Birdland" served as a tribute to the New York jazz club on 52nd street that housed many famous jazz musicians. The song was also named in honor of the man after whom the club was named, Charlie Parker, the ‘Bird’ himself. It was this club, that he frequented almost daily, that inspired Zawinul to write the song. Looking back, Zawinul claimed, “The old Birdland was the most important place in my life.” (From Wikipedia Jan.03.2016)
How to play " Birdland"
Now, a base is a main song for this song. The first harmonics is beautiful. A pop theme can be written only in ZABINURU catchily. It's very difficult because of the height of its percentage of completion to break a song of Weather Report. Because a chord is complicated like a keyboard player, it's very fun. (Main theme of 1:54~) it's disturbing whether this part uses a song of strings ancestry strong in an attack or EREPI ancestry.
The start is obedient in a theme. It's to ad lib by a shuffle beat on the way. I don't like a shuffle so much. There is rarely a drummer good at a shuffle^. Whether a drum comes out at the front when why will it be a shuffle, chatters, ad lib will be, and the rhythm with the low very difficult degree of freedom.
Sound is buried, and a bad one will be the point that the sound I win becomes loud. Without burying sound in a drummer, I want you to consider the shuffle which doesn't go out to the front. They should be to which degree you do volume control of where to lay on the stress and the rhythm for which it's difficult for a drummer by its meaning where a gap is opened. A drummer is trying for various things, and is very good by this performance, but suppression will be a little more necessary to the whole.

The album, Wayne Shorter released in 1985 The first number of the " Atlantis ". Endangered Species For", intention of endangered species. There may be a lot of people who are confused at the point too different from the "Native dancer" which makes imagine the tropics in Shorter, too. This song is on the prolongation in Weather Report, and it seems to imagine the inorganic future. It's still unclear what endangered species pierces. The "lower line" set of the base and the guitar and the linear set on the incoherent sax and keyboard seemingly ignored counterpoint as Ana Liese of music, I interlock and go exquisitely. A liver is groove in difficult Shimogumi of a base and a guitar. It's unclear because whether the difficulty level as the performance technology of a base was high, first "Atlantis", then a baseline was driving. But this driving is far from groove sense clearly, and subtle laver has been lost. Shorter seems to have liked this song, and costarring with various artist is left for YouTube. Every time I run after a time, being intention makes it fast tempo little. I challenge by this band, and, the 4th year. The performance which has come here finally.
