Just A Jam


This is a live jam with BobH and myself recorded via my Tascam DR-05. All I did was to add a little reverb. It is just two guitars, BobH on acoustic and myself on electric. This is just a jam, we never practiced this before. It is live and unrehearsed.

No PGM products were used here so it PGM wants me to take it down I will. I just thought you may like to see how Bob and I get things prior to adding backing tracks.

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

Hello Mario
this is really great
I had the images in my mind while listening
how I used to sit together with my band and present my new ideas and play
Nothing against BiaB. It is and will always be fantastic.
But the "real" music is played the way you did it.
Glad you brought that back to our attention.
Many greetings
Andi ;-)

Mario, that sounds great! Especially for a live jam! Both instruments sound wonderful! Your past use of PG Music products is what brought you here in the first place, so I don't think anyone minds you posting this one in the showcase! If they do, they need to re-evaluate their feelings on the subject! I think you should do more of these...it was super! Thanks, Torrey

Thanx everyone. BobH and I do a lot of covers this way. We play into my DAW then I incorporate BiaB into the process. Thus far this has worked very well.

I will now only record into my DAW. That way Bob and I will be on separate tracks so editing, if necessary, will be a lot easier.

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

Hi MarioD,

The guitar playing is very pleasant and reminds me at times of Simon and Garfunkel. Very nice composition. Well done.
