    Default Let's Jam!

    I was traveling down memory lane and listened to some of the collaborations we did in these old threads. Fun stuff! I can't believe it was so long ago now. Hopefully I have improved some!

    Anyhoo, who's in for a jam?! I was kinda hankerin' for a backing track of something in the style of Pearl Jam's "Crazy Mary". I haven't found one yet, but hopefully we can. It is in Am basically, an eminently wankable key. How about it? Anyone have a line on a backing track?

    Or another track that someone has?

    Ah, I can't find a backing track to that song. Will find something else that rocks and see if we can get something started.

    I hope some people jump in and get rocking here!

    Thanks for the nudge, Steve!

    I'd be up for some jammin'! One possibility would be just make a song quickly in whatever key desired, some basic blues or something should be a 20-minute job with EZDrummer to create & record?

    At the risk of being cliche', I am looking at a chord progression sounding like "Watchtower". Fun chords, lots of room to be creative. Looking at tracks now. Anyone have a really good one?


    I think Robert might have some lessons that touch on Watchtower type playing too that could be incorporated into our efforts.

    Are you thinking of something already written or an improv?

    All I have for drums is an Alesis SR16, but I could use that to create a bass/drum track that you guys could jam on.

    Is that what you have in mind Steve?
