Bob and Me on Three Dash Three My friend Bob came over on March 3rd and recorded a rhythm track: hence the cool song title. A few days later I jammed along with it. This took a back seat for a while do to other projects, but I had time to work on it last week. BiaB style = ? for some strange reason I didn't save the sgu file like I normally do. Tempo = 96 BPM I deleted the strings and drum tracks. Piano = EZKeys 2 - Piano- preset Roadhouse Guitar - UVI WorkStation - preset 28 Electric Guitar Drums - GrooveMonkee MIDI loops - Kirt Hunter's SSD-5 kit Funk 2 BobH - acoustic guitar rhythm track Me- lead electric guitar (Harley Benton fake Gretsch) and my As always all comments are welcomed.
I think my wife has started to show the first signs of dementia.
She said she can't remember what she ever saw in me!

Man, I love the sound of that Harley Benton, nice and wobbly yet sonically smooth.
You and Bob have a great style going.
Great job.

Cool jam and nice augmentation too.
It's asking for a lyric.

Cool jam! That lead guitar does have a nice sound and perfect ambience for this style. Love your playing, too! Very old school but fresh sounding. This one may get stuck in my head today...not a bad thing!

Interesting how it all came about. We love the overall vibe. And Bob laid down an excellent bed for your also excellent axe. Forgive the hackneyed word ... but it is very catchy.  J&B

Well, this sounds very Jerry Garcia and very Grateful Dead which is a really good start!
I think I read that someone wants to add some lyrics, so I can get you started off, but you all will have to finish it because I don't really don't have that much.
Also I will admit that I have absolutely no memory of the Grateful Dead show that I attended and I have absolutely no idea why but here are my lyrics.
Cocaine Judy
And her best friend Rudy
Driving that train
Singing howdy dowdy doody
Down on the range
Feeling no pain
Play it in G
Then you play it again
Well that's all I've got maybe somebody else can finish it.

I really like that tremolo guitar, such a great sound. Nice hook too!
Fun little jam! Thanx Dave. See above for that amp setting.

........................... Thanx David for listening. I'm not a Dead Head by any means so I don't really get that Garcia comment. While playing I was thinking more Dwayne Eddy, remember him? But thanx for that comment anyway, I'll have to listen to the Grateful Dead. PS - thanx for the lyrics. Maybe someone will pick up on them.

Another magical Sunday Serenade. That Gretch has a cool country sound, and Bob plays the perfect track for jamming. Always a pleasure hearing you guys, and this is a nice lazy Sunday feel.
