Ice Cold Winter Blues

Real Bass 1922 Bass Electric
Real Drums-BluesRock 128^6

Had to add in a 5 band equalizer and pull the highs down a bit the guitar was a bit to bright for me.

Boss DD-20 delay.

Scott,

At 4:30 am here in Melbourne on my headphones, this is sounding really great. I love the tone of the guitar and your playing is super..... very bluesy, excellent lyrical phrasing, classy.

May Christmas bring good things your way,
Noel

Scott,

You certainly warmed me up with your smooth blues playing!

Enjoyed the song and the sweet tone of that Les Paul with the Purdy amp.

Great stuff,
Jez

Scott, I feel ole BB looking over shoulder in those notes. That's real blues when you transmit "feeling" in the notes to the listener! You've done it here. Thanks, Torrey
