I originally recorded this tune in the early 60's. I recently heard it for the first time in years, and felt that it was good enough to re- record. It's played in the style of The Shadows (England's answer to the Ventures), featuring the classic Shadows guitar techniques like palm muting (dripping with echo), lots of vibrato, double stops and melodic playing- all done on A Stratocaster bridge pickup. All backings were done in BIAB, but a fair amount of audio editing has taken place https://soundcloud.com/bruce-boome/indigo-bay

Hi Bruce,

That was a great listen. It certainly is an authentic sounding Shadows-like composition. Nice!

All the best,
Noel

The chord progression nailed that era and genre fairly accurately.

Good job.

Yep, certainly harkens to the Shadows and
the Ventures. Really enjoyed it.

If you revisit the mix you might want to
consider bumping drums up a bit.
BUT it might just be my tastes or monitors
or old ears smile

Cool playing and tone.

Nice!!

Hi Bruce. Love the title. Can certainly hear the shadows there.
I always liked that clean lyrical style.
Some of the surf music is similar. Good one.

Bruce,

Neat song! Took me back to the sixties for sure. Excellent guitar tone and wonderful use of effects.

Hello Bruce,

Indeed, this is The Shadows all over again! Superb guitar technique.
One of the best instrumentals we've heard on the forum so far.
Looking forward to your upcoming contributions!
