Really nice work. There were several spots where the chord progression took off. Thanks for posting a cool guitar song for black friday.

uh ohhhh... 6:30 am here and already SOund cloud is so blitzed I can't get a stream.

Welcome to Black Friday! I'll keep checking in because I want to hear this!

update:---------
OK, finally got a stream!

Wow! The various passages reminded me of a bunch of different artists:
my first impression was REM, then Todd Rundgren, even the WHO.
... but completely you!

I like it! interesting chord pattern and fun guitar work!

Awesome listen. Loved the guitar work. Must admit the only thing better than playing guitar is shopping for one :-)

Hi Scott great to hear from you again. I see we are on the same cycle of music production. Hope all is well and keep crankin em out.

Ella the "female" in the song is a patch for SampleTank3. You can make some beautiful film scores with this and many others.

Probably wouldn't go over here to well but you never know!

DA,

I thought I had commented blush

Sounds good LOUD!

I take tablets to stop me buying anymore guitars, grin but even I think 9 is enough, and so did the ex-missus LOL

"I take tablets to stop me buying anymore guitars" Now that's is very funny!

9 is an odd number, may as well make it an even 10. Cut out the donuts and make your own Coffee. Then put the money from the donuts or any other breakfast food you would have spent in an envelope, until you get enough to get a new guitar.

Cut down on the tabs by half and you get there twice as fast with the savings:)

"Luckily for me I don't suffer from GAS" Wow it's a good thing you don't
because a SS-OM42-14 could get expensive.

Yeah, me too. But Di would kick my butt from here to Hong Kong and back! We just bought a new car and are paying for some of our granddaughter's chemo treatments, so any unnecessary expense is out of the question ... that includes BIAB 2015 frown

Nicely put together and really rocks! Thanks for a real nice listen! Best to ya ...
