Hey Amigo,

Latino blues and jazz. In my book, you just can't beat it. Thank you for your kind words, and ¡Feliz Año Nuevo!

This is wonderful Dean. Super tasteful guitar playing, great tone with the thumb on more than just the octaves, the thumb on those single note line, oh my. And digging the Latin flavor underlying it all.

Was BIAB used on this track?

My Jim Hall story... My brother is talking to Jim's daughter Devra and tells her what a fan I am of Jim's. He also tells her that I'm in the hospital getting treated for Leukemia... a treatment of chemo and a bone marrow transplant.

I have an extended stay living at the hospital, Jan 2011 until August 2011. While I was there Jim starts corresponding with me. No computers for Jim, we communicate with hand written letters and cards. We talked of various things including our dogs, Jim's dog is named Django . He sent me about a dozen of his CD's.

All that for someone he had never met. What a kind and generous soul. RIP Jim Hall, my friend.

I'm curious to know what Rt's and drums you used to composite that rhythm, which I think must have been 'toyed' with by you somewhat to get that end result?

Hi FrankP,

That story tells it all about Jim Hall. Here's my Jim Hall story: When Wes Montgomery hit the scene like the asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs, guitarists in general were trying to scrape their jaws off the pavement. No one had heard anything like this guy.

As Jim tells it, he and Wes were riding in a cab and Jim says he was thinking to himself, laughingly of course, about how he, Jim Hall, might be able to get Wes's thumb jammed in the taxi door when they both got out! (You can almost see Jim wiping his hands together, thinking, "Well, that ought to care of that cat!")

Of course, this incredibly talented, unpretentious, and wonderful guy could never do such a thing. He admitted openly that he really couldn't play fast and liked to stick to medium tempos. But no one since has been able to get close to his intelligence on the instrument.

Your other personal story hit out of nowhere. I hope that you're holding that devil at bay. May it burn itself out, down there where it belongs.

Thanks for that great story about Jim Hall and for the encouraging remarks.

Dean

PS I almost always use RealDrums in various combinations. One of the Latin styles on this one.

Hi Icelander,

It's been a while, but I recall using at least three RealDrum styles and doing a lot of slicing and dicing, lifting and shifting, viewing and gluing, etc. to get the total result. Luckily, I like doing that kind of stuff.

Glad you liked Senor Thumbs!

Dean
