    Default Found an old live recording from 1991

    Wow, this was fun to hear again! My friend in Sweden who played keyboards in our band "Local Gossip" sent me this live recording from 1991. Actually not that bad! I was new to jazz and improvisation back then. We were a Fusion band.

    I wrote this song called "Dinky Toy". Don't ask me how I had the patience to create something like that... I don't seem to have that ability anymore.

    Enjoy!

    Sweee...den.
    I was going to say sweet, but Sweden is almost the same thing.

    I love this kind of stuff but have no idea how to play it.

    I was very much into Chick Corea Electric Band in those days. If you've ever heard them, you can tell how I inspired I was by their stuff back then.

    Nice! I almost expected a 7/8 beat, but sounds great in 4/4
    You have a nice sound on that recording Robert.
    I can't say that I've given up on a flanger cause I've never liked the effect either. I also can't say the same about Tremolo. I hate them both equally. - Tone2TheBone 2009

    Nice job!

    I bet you could still write something if you wanted. You just steal something you like and change it a little....
