Bob and I on 3-24 My friend BobH came over on Sunday, 3/24, and started to jam a chord progression that I immediately recorded. As I was adding effects to said progression he started to play a lead. It was a super lead but since he does not use picks the recording of his lead was extremely low. Instead of messing around with preamps and such I gave him my Harley Benton fake Gretsch guitar, which is always ready to record: I wanted to get as close to a first take as I could. I played my SX Fretless bass and via my keyboard controller the violin. Band-in-a-Box supplied the piano track. BiaB track - 2056:Piano, Rhythm CelticAir, EV 085 Super MIDI track I only modified two measures on this track. Violin - Kontakt - Amedeus - solo violin As always all comments are welcomed. {edit} - I forgot to add the piano sound is EZKeys2 - upright - saloon.

My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not.

Nice little jam, Mario! Violin sounds great. I like Bob's style, very melodic.

Man, you gotta start charging admission to your Sunday jams, Mario. You and Bob have so much fun and in shows in the music. I like Bob even more now since we both don't play with a pic. His approach really brought out the relaxed feel of the progression, and that fretless is always a good choice in your hands. The violin was an interesting intrusion that was also most welcomed.

Mario, nicely done, again! Your tune sets a cool mood and all the instruments sound great. Really like the FX chain on the guitar: Lots of pleasing ambience without excessive airiness, but not muddy at all. You guys have WAY too much fun, and I'm a little jealous....

Best to you,
Alan Thanx Alan. That's Bob's guitar work. When he played as a duet with his brother-in-law he never got to play any leads. Now he is excels at it! Nice little jam, Mario! Violin sounds great. I like Bob's style, very melodic. Thanx Dave. Adding that drone violin was Bob's idea and it was a good one.

I'm glad that you noticed the guitar's tone. I was surprised that the BiaB's piano track fit so well; sometimes I just get lucky. Yes we do have a lot of fun and if you are ever in our area you are welcomed to join in!

You guys are a great team. I liked this a lot and didn't even notice (or mind) the lack of percussion. The lead guitar was particularly well done. Great job.
https://soundcloud.com/user-646279677BiaB 2024 Windows 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.

Okay Mario this is great and I really like it, and it's really peaceful and relaxing. Ultra groovy.
But I swear to God I don't understand why you don't get the Grateful Dead references I have made before. This is straight up Jerry Garcia. Who is a great guitarist by the way.
🙂
I'm also saying it as a huge compliment.
If I walked into any new age and/or hippie bar in Chapel Hill North Carolina right now and played this song women would start dancing around in their tie-dye dresses and sandals and crying and saying oh my God I didn't know the Grateful Dead were back together.
When are they going on tour?

I can almost see the smile on your face as you guys were recording this. Great jam. I think a little percussion would add a lot too, but that may not be the feel you're going for. Regardless, it was cool to have you bring us into the room to listen to you guys pick a little.
