Same Bar Same City a Few Beers Later

A sequel to After Hours in the Big City.

All tracks are basically first takes. There are a few warts in here but considering the title I decided to let them ride.

BiaB style = Miles Slow Funk (Fusion)
Tempo = 100

I deleted all but the drums; the drums are verbatim. I am playing everything else.

Drums - various Steven Slate SSD5 drums

Rhythm guitar - Casio MG510 - with wah wah straight into mixing board - fx- compression

Lead guitar - Casio MG510 - fx-Amplitube 5 - preset - ping pong - compression

B3 - B4II -preset - soul expression - via my keyboard controller

Trumpet-Kontakt - preset - Screaming Trumpet - via my wind controller -fx Raum reverb - preset sports hall

Alto sax - Swam - preset - alto sax - - via my wind controller -fx Raum reverb - preset sports hall

Bass - Squire P-Bass - fx - compression

Let me know how you liked or disliked this little jam.

I love it. Impressive how good and natural you got the trumpet and alto to sound.
Yes, it sounds like a jam, but that is a good thing... it sounds like a live performance (which it somehow is...) smile

Thanks a lot for sharing, Mario!

Sounds good! With a title like that, I would have expected the players to be a bit less... sober. wink

I think the trumpet sounded better here than in the prior song.

The balance of the horn section vs. the other instruments seemed to be a bit mismatched.

Fun tune!

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

Thanx David. This is a different trumpet sound (screaming trumpet) than the last one (chapman trumpet). Note that the sax and trumpet players were drunker then the others and were pegging the mix needle on this one. I'll have a talk with them. Thanx for bringing that up.

Thanx so much for these nice comments Scott. I am still trying to learn that wind controller. I'm doing less editing now but I'm still doing some.

quite an accomplishment to play everything and do it so well! My hat's off to you Mario.

Regarding the mention of any warts: you set it up pretty well. These guys have been up all night and had (WHO knows how many?) beers... I'm impressed. They must be pros.

You must be a keyboard wizard to get it like that, Mario.

Good job

I barely drink but I'd up it to a fifth a day if I could play ONE of
these tracks much less the whole damn tune.

A lotta tech and talent.

Cool.

A well constructed funky piece of fun.
There was something missing in the wah...but i do like aggressive wahs.
Well done.
