Geriatric Guitar Music To Improve Memory and Digestion https://soundcloud.com/mark_hayes/geriatric-guitar-music-to-improve-memory-and-digestionIt’s 1969. The opening band at the Fillmore East is extending its set until the main act’s guitarist can be resuscitated. They have played everything they know, so they do this until they are told to stop. Tired, stoned, and annoyed, they lumber around the stage like tar-bound dinosaurs, watching the analog clock on the wall. Just kidding! I recorded the guitar here in the 1980s with just the moaning Radio Shack Moog background, and have now added drums and bass in BIAB. I actually am very fond of this old guitar solo, but even apart from that, the string bass with the thundering drums (quadruple-tracked) came out pretty sweet. There's a little filigree at 2:37 that's like the best 3 seconds I ever spent playing guitar. The whole thing is AWFULLY lumbering, though. And relentlessly repetitive. Long, too! =8^) ******************* Style is _USASLO.STY RealTracks in style: 2873:Bass, Acoustic, AmericanaSlow128Byron Sw 040 RealDrums in Style: AmericanaSlow128^01-a:Kick Sidestick, b:Kick Snare

No Pussyfooting, (Swastika Girls specifically), with bass n drums?
I like the RSM drones - that stuff makes the general sound a drum n bass development of Eno loops and Frippertronic.
I'd like to hear it without the augmentation as well.
Cheers

This is the original. I was playing with a new compression stomp box, and so for decades have known this piece only as "Compressed Guitar" (you can see why the makeover on the name.) https://soundcloud.com/mark_hayes/compressed-guitarThanks for listening and commenting.

I was into Fripp more than Eno - mainly Roxy Music's fault...I wasn't a fan of them despite trying. Once he was known to me through Fripp I became familiar with his solo stuff.
The original is cool feels very different without the rhythm section - I'll have to listen to this one proper speakers rather than headphones.
Thnaks for putting it where I could listen.
I didn't own any stomp boxes until the mid 80s when my wife bought me a Wah pedal and later a Yamaha FX500 - MultiFX unit, (it has a super shoegaze/drone/synthy setting called Soft Focus - I've kept it going all these years for that one patch). I didn't actually buy one for myself until about a decade ago.

You paint quite a vivid picture!
I think I was there....or at least my vague memories and your music transported me to that place and time.
I think I was wearing a nehru jacket, blue jeans or nothin at all.
The stew of stale beer, and pot fills the air.
My gaze is fixed upon the guitar player running into the Marshall amplifier that blasts the space with sounds you feel but can't really identify.
Occasionally, wisps of hair flick across my face as the young girl next to me dances wildly. I get a brief smell of her patchouli oil and I care not about time ,space or tomorrow.

Joe's fans would have trouble cutting through the haze to get to the memory. I thought the covers & titles of CJ&TF stuff were better than the countryfied music.

I thought the covers & titles of CJ&TF stuff were better than the countryfied music. All I ever really knew of Country Joe was THAT song ("1, 2, 3, what are we fighting for?") or the "Fish" cheer. CJ did the "Fish" cheer with the obscene spelling at Woodstock, and it's on the record. I was somewhere out there in that audience, participating. Maybe in 50 years, audio AI will have evolved sufficiently to isolate my voice. And I'll be a port-mortem AI hologram, digging it.

Sounds a bit like a opening of a Tom Waites set... only more melodic.
Ostinato, baby!

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first?

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
