Rain All Over Me - Instrumental Mix

A little over a year ago I posted the vocal version of this song. Recently, I stripped out the vocal and slightly reworked the lead guitar and ended up with this. Hope you like it. And thanks in advance for any comments you might leave for me. I'll get back to everyone as I can - Di has been in and out of the hospital lately.

An early Happy Thanksgiving to everyone.

Alan

Hey there Al-David, great work on this! This is beautiful and a solid key signature choice too. Excellent guitar riffs and I found the organ really helps piece it all together. Looking forward to hear more!


Cheers,
Joe

Alan,

This COOKS!

Once again, you show off pieces of BIAB that I don't usually look to. And it makes me want to give them a try...

Excellent mix. A great listen. Killer.

Best to Di. Hope you have a good Thanksgiving.

Al,

That`s some very tasty guitar - I`d never heard that solo RT before and this is a fine showcase.
Nothing but the best on this one.

Al-David,

I LOVE IT. I LOVE IT. I LOVE IT !

Reminds me of great Freddy King instrumentals like Hideaway. There may be rain over you - it just brought sun into an an otherwise dark autuumn day.

What more can I say: The guitar caught me completely and technically it's just flawless. It's on my playlist.

Take good care,

Stefan

Thanks, everyone, for those very nice words and the well wishes for Di. She's really struggling right now.

And Stefan, I know what you mean about those autumn nights in Germany. I went through 12 years of them!

Again, many thanks to all!

Alan

Alan,

Right from the start, my feet started tapping and dancing around as I sat here listening. After I listened to this a few times, I sat here thinking, "Alan sure knows how to tap into the heart and soul of every genre that he works with." Whether it's jazz, blues, standards, etc., you not only give us delightful entertainment, you also provide us with musical works that live and breathe in the style.

It's two thumbs up from me.

I'm so sorry to hear that the going has got even tougher for Di. My thoughts and prayers are with you both.

Noel

Hi Alan,

That is an amazing blues track, full of life and "swing". It reminds me of a past part of my life where I played this style of music in a band. Good times!

All the best to you and Di - I hope she will be better soon!

What a tune! Love the bluesy vibe, and the tune has some serious attitude. It definitely hits hard. Precisely the kind of song I'd imagine sounds otherworldly in a live setting. Thanks for sharing smile

Many thanks to all who have commented since my last thank you. I wish I had time to reply to each of you personally, but Di's health is very precarious right now. And also, those who have wished her well, she sends her heartfelt thanks, as do I.

Take care and have a great Thanksgiving!

Alan & Di

Alan,

Nice Texas Blues!
I agree with Robert.

It reached to my ears as if you were actually playing this guitar.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.
