Ok guys, here we go. We have one week from today, and our tracks need to be turned in by 7pm eastern next Monday. Let's have some fun, and hopefully this will turn into a regular thing that we can all have fun with and learn from. Can't wait to hear what you guys come up with. Here's the link to the backing track (don't forget, it's the Albert King BT):

i think i had originally said that we should all wait and turn ours in at once...but if might be motivation to hear some sooner, so feel free to post as you complete yours.

i was gonna post one tonight, but i had too much to do to get ready to go out of town tomorrow.....anyone else done one yet??

Sweet, this thing was burning a hole in my pocket... er, hard drive lol.

I actually got the time to do this on Monday. I said it on the other post, but each guitar take was one whole take--I didn't paste it all up lol. The 1st lead was one, the slide lead was one, and the 2 outro leads were one.

There are still a couple little rough spots, but I didn't want to run out of time, so they stayed.

Please, don't hold back. Hit me with some criticism. I don't get to play as often as I used to, and I know I'm rusty, I could use the pointers.

It is now offering time in the temple!!!!!!!!!!

Niiiiiiiice!

Thanks, guys. I wish I had more time on it, but I usually get to a point where it just stops progressing lol. I gotta learn to stop when it's in that "good enough" stage.

Once we get onto more of the gospel stuff, I'll really have to stretch myself out to keep up with y'all.

That was cool, JayP. You and I were thinkin' along the same lines and once you hear mine, you'll understand.
I recorded it a couple nights ago but haven't been able to post it yet.
I'll try tonight.

Ok, here's mine...clams and all...and I honestly didn't know that Jay was doing a slide-thing, too.

Albert Collins meets Vodka Collins

I mean Albert KING...ah, whatever...the joke is ruined.

Maybe call it "Albert King meets Chung King"?!

JayP5150 · « **Reply #11 on:** July 12, 2007, 09:10:48 PM »

Dave, I'm jealous of your melodious ZZ Top thing you've got goin' on there.

The compound bendy thing is sweet (Nuge for president, btw...).

The tone is killer (I need a new mic--it's a cheapie, and I didn't feel like diggin' the condenser out *lazy* lol)

Slide part is killer as well. Much more controlled than my antics.

**disclaimer** I hadn't played in days... and I hadn't played slide in about a month. lol

Great take, Dave.

Good job JayP and Dave wow! Can't wait to hear others.

yesssiirrrrr!

JayP - great playing man! you've got an awesome touch and the slide is fantastic. my only beef is that the song faded out and it sounded like you had plenty more in you! im reaally diggin the slide too bro, great feeling, i could almost see your eyes close on certain parts, lol. you are really in tune with your instrument and it shows.

Dave - cant tell you how instructional your take was. more color in it than ive been exposed to to this date! love the way you climb up to the root octave (hope i made sense) at the start of a phrase, never heard it that way. and at precisely 1:40, that two note walk up.... i had to stop the track and rewind to make sure i heard correctly...love it man, will definitely practice that.

i could go thru and praise every part of each song. great stuff guys, anytime i have to immediately pick up the axe after listening is great stuff to me.

1st of all I love what I've heard so far. Dave you're killing it man. JP I haven't heard your track yet which brings me to my point. I'm having trouble downloading the mp3. I hadn't even heard the backing track until I heard Dave's version. So I was wondering Dave... if you would mind posting the backing track like you did your take? I'd really appreciate it. Doubt I'll make the dead line being that this is the last day and there's no telling when you'll see this, but I'd still like to have a go at it.

Take it easy,

Oops. I thought today was the deadline, but I just read that it's Monday. Might just make it after all.

You have to sign up (free) to soundclick to download tracks hosted there.

I can try and post it up on my comcast page later on tonight if you're still having problems.

And maybe we should extend the deadline out a bit...end of next week sound good?

buddy_guise · « **Reply #19 on:** July 13, 2007, 11:34:01 AM »

Fine with me. I was going to post my, even if it was late, anyway. Don't have a lot of "musically inclined" friends around here so I could use the feedback. I'll give it a try later and let you know.

Thanks,

~<{BG}>~
