Here’s Larry Goldings playing “In My Room,” one of Wilson’s first compositions. I believe he wrote it for a class in high school and got a “C” on it. Enjoy!
Last week I watched some of the CBS 2 hour tribute to The Beach Boys.
There was a harmonically fascinating song that Brian Wilson composed which Nora Jones sang and performed on piano. It’s called The Warmth of The Sun.
It is a haunting melody, with modulations, key changes , and I’ve been inspired enough to try and figure out a jazz arrangement.
I’m sure if anyone watches this on You Tube you may be equally intrigued. Why not post any versions you come up within, I need some ideas…
Thanks,
