Heavier Than Normal

The drums are from Band-in-a-Box style Heavy Metal #2. The drums are verbatim. I deleted everything else.

I am playing my new fretless bass, rhythm guitar, lead guitar. I am also playing the B3 via my both my MIDI keyboard controller and my MIDI guitar controller.

I tried to capture a late 60's early 70's sound on this jam.

What do you think?

Sounds very much like one of the extended jams off vinyl straight from the 60's. Good job all around.


Charlie

sweet jam, very visual, I get a noir vibe for some reason


rock on!

man, you've been busy this week Mario! 3 songs on the front page at once! I'm still working on my first post in 5 years!

Reminds me of the jam sessions we used to have in the summer of 1971 in my buddy's garage. The only thing missing is the track where somebody starts pounding on the door demanding that you turn down the volume, there's a baby trying to sleep a block away...

You've been all overthe creative spectrum lately, but I enjoyed this. Its closer to what I understand.

Hi Mario,

It sounds like you had fun making this which is what it's all about! Loved the sound of your new fretless bass and the Santana'esque guitar.

Rock on!
Rec

Cool Jam!! As one who became musically aware in the 60's, I love this feel. I think more verb on the guitar and B3 could enhance them a bit. Excellent stuff!! Take care. Greg

great job mariod 70s for sure I can relate to pats comment rock on thanks for sharing eric

Bring back the sixties.
Great job.
Rob

Of your new songs posted the other day, I like this one most Mario. Probably because the drum style and rhythm guitar. Like that bass too and your organ sound. Thanks for sharing!

Thanx all for listening and commenting.

Charlie that was exactly the image that I was trying to paint!

Gruverider, Greg, Eric and Rob I'm glad that you liked it.

Pat none of these were done in a week. I have had these songs partially done for about a month but the holidays and life got into the way of finishing them. Things have calmed down so I had some time to finish them.

That was a good thought and in fact I should have put someone screaming that and/or cop car sirens in the background at the end. Note that this was recorded in "Joe's Garage"

We must be close in age. Remember the Fillmore East albums, Humble Pie, Moby Grape, Allman Brothers, Bloomfield and Cooper, etc?

Rec yes I had a ball doing this one. Thanx for the Santana comment.

Yeah man!



J&B

Mario

You certainly captured everything you said you wanted to. Nice heavy grunge mix there! B3 fits nicely too.

And all Instruments Very Well played!
Trev

Another excellent tune. Well done...

Hi Mario,

very nice jam with yourself.
You are a multitalent.
Enjoyable 60s reminiscence.

Guenter

I'm 61

And yeah, I remember. I saw Humble Pie live at the Hampton Roads coliseum in about 1973

I think they played with Gentle Giant and Foghat.
Still listen to Allman Brothers. Not so much the other bands.

Okay! I'm awake now
Nice rocking! Being born in 57 I can relate to your style.
A good jam, Mario. Well played.
On to number 3...

Ps - my wife is still waiting for me go grow up

Mario,

Just great! You captured the vibe perfectly - love it!

Bob

Listened to most of your music on soundcloud and found it very good...always have appreciated your wide-ranging talent, old man!

Nice and heavy Mario!
(definitely heavier than normal )
