I'm working on an album of slow moody blues called "Alone And Blue".
This is one of the new tracks:
https://soundcloud.com/captainmoto/02-captain-moto-lost-and-lonesome

I usually use BIAB for drums and bass.
On this one I also used a B3 organ.

Drums - BluesMonday
Bass - Electric Bas #564
B3 - #1039
Rhythm Guitars - Collings I35, Victoria Silversonic amp, Captain Moto
Lead Guitar -Same Captain Moto
Vocals - Captain Moto, trying hard

Lyrics:

I'm lost and lonesome, Dream'n about those long lost days
When you brought your love to me, in oh oh so many ways
But now I'm lost and lonesome every single day

I'm done cry'n, I aint got no tears
And my heart is empty, after all these years
Oh I'm lost and lonesome, lost and lonesome without you here

~~ Guitar Solo ~~

You're out on your own now, liv'n a new life
I'm all alone here, just aint feel'n right
I'm lost and lonesome, lost and lonesome day and night

I'm broken with sadness, drowning in my sorrow
And I know this emptiness, will be my only friend tomorrow
I'm lost I'm lonesome, lost and lonesome that's all I know
Oh No

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

A touch of the Gary Moore's.
Your guitar playing stamps this well.
BIAB does a lot of cool things but emoting isn't one of them the guitar licks do that really well.
.
Cool.

Thank you Ray,

I'm not a great player, or singer but I do try to put some feeling into it.
I appreciate your comments.

CaptainMoto, enjoyed this very much! Your guitar work puts me in mind of some of John Fogerty's work on some of the early CCR albums, particularly the longer jam type songs. The attack of the notes and tone are very similar! Take care, T

Oooo, you're not alone on this, Captain. Love that solo!! Blues is about the feeling and you find that in your playing. Wonderful song.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Hi Captain,

this is the kind of music I've been loving since I was 12 (and that is loooooong ago). No tricks, no frills, just the beef. I really dug your guitar playing: very cool fills and solo.

Very well done !!!!

Take care,

Stefan

We are blues folks.

This is blues.

Voila -- we love it!

Blues vocals and solos either have soul or they don't. Period.

You do in both categories. Guitar and vocals are testifying!
