    Thanks for the backing track. Here's my crack at it, with lots of slop and goofs in it but it was fun...

    Well I played around with Audacity a bit tonight and figured a few things out.

    I used the Nash Tele Neck P/U through the Gearbox preset 'Lux Verb Chorus amp model.

    I love this groove Spudman put up here. I'm hoping I can continue to play around with it and improve.

    Cheers

    Real nice take Algonquin.

    I like the recurring theme and the phrasing. Good job....but I want more.:

    Thanks very much Steve/Steve!

    There's always a huge differential from what I hear in my head, from what I can actually play on the guitar.., but that's is what is so motivating!

    I know I have limited improve skills, but I can feel the riff's deep down in me.

    Again, thanks for posting an awesome track that inspired me to post my very first Fret recording!

    Truly appreciated...

    Hey!

    This is deja vu all over again!

    What I mean is... I've already done a take on this very BT a while ago already!

    Nevertheless, thanks for bringing this back, it is a great BT!!

    And here is my take from way back:

    http://www.thefret.net/showthread.php?t=3169

    I only listened to Spud's take, really great! : Going to listen to the others now, meanwhile listen to mine and please be gentle...

    P.S.: I notice that the recording is clipping quite a bit, sorry for that... it was one take and without much attention to detail, unfortunately...

    Hey, really great riffs! I like your feel and disagree that you have "limited improvisation skills"!

    Good takes all you guys! I have heard this backing before. I think I have it on my computer too. I guess I should get my fanny in gear and add my wanking too... ?

    I have funk love affair, so I get all excited listening to this kinda stuff. Good job all you! :

    Man, all you guys sound great on this cool BT. Algonquin, yours has a Stanley Jordan sort of vibe and I like the repeated melody structures that change every few bars.
    Good work everyone. I may take a stab at this too.

    I did take a run at this cool BT. Reminds me of the way I used to play Dave Mason's Feelin' Alright many moons ago, so I threw some of that structure and feel into it.
