Tele Blues

This is just a "I gotta let off some steam" blues jam!

After a month of on the go I just had to sit down, return to my roots and jam.

BiaB style = Rock Blues - Gritty Medium-Slow

The drums are verbatim. The pads were only used in spots and the organ track was heavily modified to better fit the song. All other tracks were deleted.

I am playing the bass and guitar parts with both tracks the first takes.

I hope you like it for what it is - MarioD

Any comments, good, or bad are appreciated.

Nice, Mario.

Nice pickin'. Especially liked the part around 2:45... The organ was super, too... Really gave this another dimension.

Nice...the vibe is really different for a blues. We are blues fans big time and much enjoyed this. And it wouldn't bother us in the least if the guitar was up a little. To quote another forum member -- it needs to make your years bleed!

Fine playing!!

Ok, I clearly see what's going on Mario.

I went all Yes on you, and then you said, ok, you think you know what freaky is, you don't know freaky, then you decided to go all Zappa on me, but then said wait!!...I am going to add in some Grateful Dead, too....but wait! That's not all! I'm going kick in some Duane Allman too.

I see how you're playing it, Mario. I see what you're doing. This means war!!

Next up:

King Crimson!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mario, Most of time first takes are the best. I always make the mistake of not recording first takes and then struggle to come close to what I did. An enjoyable listen with some nice playing. Tom
