"Excellent"

I thought this was actually pretty good although I wouldn't categorize it as a Rhythm and Blues song but rather a Jazz Ballad or something similar. Rhythm and Blues--even in modern instances--usually consists of consecutive instrumentals, vocals (usually repeating similar lyrics during the chorus and non-linear yet familiar in rhythm and key lyrics during the verses), multiple versus, and some consecutive "chorus." I can understand the misconception, R&B is a broad term and in its early years was perceived to be a variation of Jazz or any music which was influenced by African American artists. I enjoyed this song nonetheless, the guitar loop was a nice addition and the arrangement of these instruments was fantastic. However in overall content it seemed to be lacking.

Your horn player is one of the most talented instrumentalists I've ever had the pleasure of hearing, I'm surprised you haven't received more acclaim for your works.
