Thanks, will do! We have some stuff from shows we just need to separate and upload, and we're filming some things in 16mm and 8mm as well

A friend of mine at work asked me to work this one up. It is about as simply done as can be. I recorded it on my Epi 335 clone (Sheraton II) using all digital effects after recording it with a dry signal. I played it in the key of "C".

That's nice Mike - it should go in the 'Christmas Countdown' Thread

If you have already listened to "Silent Night", listen again. I cleaned it up a lot and changed the background chords.

I also changed guitars! It actually sounded more Three-Dee on the Epiphone Sheraton (my black semi hollow body guitar)

I added another while dinking around. Ended up playing it in "F" which tosses in a chord that I've seldom used ("A#).....okay, it's really not that uncommon as it is also sort of Bb. But for this song, it sounds best if played only with the "D" "G", "B" strings barr'd on the 3rd fret and you only play those three strings.

The other chords are "F" "C" and "C7". Nothing fancy. Played pretty clean on the Epiphone Sheraton II with a lot of chorus on the chords and some reverb on the VOX part.

I really like it on the Epi Sheraton Mike, sounds very cool!

I wanted to work some on my Pentatonic Blues Scales but wanted a bit more of a challenge than just running the scales.

I whipped out a two-track "Blues Boogie" loop in 12-bar format in "Em". You can improvise on top of it easily (hopefully) on any of the scale positions in "E".

It's kind of fun improvising over it. Just end each run with the note of the chord that is played next!

12-bar in Em

Em7 Em7 Em7 Em7 A7 A7 Em7 Em7 B7 A7 Em7 A7 and repeat.
