I've been listening to old Bud Powell records lately (some part of my brain being rooted in 1950's Bebop), and I got inspired to record the Bud Powell tune "Strictly Confidential". As with most jazz from that period, it lays nicely on the C6 tuning. It's not a tune that gets played much in the jazz repertoire, but I kinda like it.

It's the first tune on my music page. Check it out Here.

Thanks, guys. I know this isn't really the kind of stuff that would appeal to everybody, but I'm always glad to share it with anyone who wants to give it a listen.

Sounds real nice, Jerry. I like the harmony licks in the head.

Very enjoyable listening, Jerry. My Powell knowledge is limited so thanks for the exposure to this tune.
