Unbreakable - SpellJammer And BonesRecordz - AllenV

Thank you.I'm humbled and I hope you can tell how much I love playing guitar to these guys song.
I never got to play these styles with such inspiration until joining this site and meeting so many talented people.

Thanks again!
Allen

Thank you for the review and I agree,it's the collaboration that makes it work,without these guys I'm just a guy playing guitar...it's their additions and inspiration that makes me want to do my best and complement the song.

Thanks again,
Allen.

Ah Bear,I'm always humbled by your comments,I'm only A product of 40yrs of playing...nothing special here,just try to live this long,and longer..Les Paul was how old?

I'll tell you that Spell had it first,then bones added his percussion...both were uploaded on their pages first.

Spell was hoping that a vocalist would jump in but it wasn't happening so I thought it would be a fun Sunday afternoon to play around with the track.
The guitar track reminded me of how the quick,off the cuff leads can sometimes be the best,I didn't know if Spell wanted to upload it,he already had two versions.

You know that I'm A humble man and not the least bit boastful but...I'll tell you the story.
Spell was worried about the tracks being uploaded without consent so we discussed whether to allow downloads.I told him that "if they want it,they will get it anyway".
I was in a mood that day and used Audacity to record his "no upload" track,and within one hour I had the guitar track recorded...just as you hear it,mixed into his track.

I love SpellJammer and we are and will always be partners and brothers...so maybe my experiment was to prove a point,but I think A good track came from the effort..and I do appreciate Bones addition.It's great how different styles of music can collide into something that feels collaborated...and it is!

Thank you Bear,I appreciate your comments and the music you share.

Allen

Thanks FR,I used my Zoom pedal and over saturated the guitar beyond normal for the tone.
Oh,it's not one you missed,Bones had it up for a year,I just wanted in on the action:)

Thank you VSS,I can't take credit for the production but I did have the whole track without my guitar and mixed it into the track.The other interesting thing about the track is that they had it finished and uploaded way before I added the guitar.
SpellJammer was looking for a vocal that didn't happen right away so I came home from work,downloaded it on A Sunday I believe and did this in allmost one take,you can even hear me switch pickups to lead at the 1:43 mark.I decided I was going to play this all the way through to preserve the emotion I was feeling as I played.

Thanks for the review my friend.
Allen.

Wow,what A great review,it did bring out a lot of emotion when I started playing to the track.

SpellJammer had it finished when I first heard the track and then Bones added his wonderful additions so I couldn't help but be moved at what they had done.
It is so important to me that you feel the emotions you mentioned cause'I felt them as I was playing my part to this track...I'm so pleased it worked so well.

Thank you for commenting,it's greatly appreciated!
Allen.

Thanks so much WongKi!
SpellJammer had this uploaded as A track,then Bones added his percussion.
We have two versions...one without Bones but I love his additions so much I wanted to share this one myself.
All I added was the guitar lead and it was so easy because of these guys and the track they made.
They and everyone I have collabed with here on the site bring out the best in me and I hope it complements their songs,that's why I credit them for what I do...they inspire me!

Thanks again!
Allen.

Hey Richie!

I have to say that I've never been so inspired until I joined this site.I played bars for many years just to provide money for the rent(And drinks).I can't count how many times I've played"Gimme Three Steps,Turn The Page and Old Time Rock n Roll"for a tip or shot of JD...which ever came first,or both!
This site has allowed me to play different styles and the freedom to grow that I never would have done in the clubs.
I know you know what I'm sayin'my friend and your comments are appreciated.It's a whole new world(musically)out there with this technology we have with the net,I just wish that one day we all could meet in person...what a jam that would be!!

Thank you for listening.
Allen.

Well howdy there country girl!
Your Shania tunes have been fantastic,you and Richie are doing so well and I look forward to many more...maybe"From this Moment"?..well,it is a wedding type of song... but A good one!

Thank you for the review,You know what Spell can do and Bones is great at what he does and added,I'm A lucky guitarist with very talented friends;)

Allen.

Thank you Wayne,I hope you're feeling well.
This one is not really new but one that I haven't uploaded myself.Zoom is the Guitar Pedal I use before going into the recorder,it's an old habit that's hard to break for me but it does the job...I just have to deal with"pedal noise"..I just bury it in the track and no one hears it...so far!

Thanks again Wayne,your comments and advice have always been important and appreciated by me.
Allen.

Thank you Vicen,this was recorded almost a year ago and I hope to be playing and collaborating again in the future.

Thank you for your great comments!
Allen.

Hey Ed!
Thank you so much for your comments.

I have to say that when I was a kid in the 70's I learned a lot from Christian guitarist Phil Keaggy.My Father was a Pastor of church and I was the typical preachers kid but I played a Les Paul like my idol Phil and he used his pinkie finger for the swells and I adopted that Technic,but it is harder with a Tele...but that's how I do it,with the Pinkie.I've tried a volume pedal but I can't do it,It's something about being able to swell it so smoothly and on the spot...not reaching for a pedal.

Thank you so much Ed,Your comments mean so much cause I believe you know what I'm trying to do with my/Collab songs...I just want to be an added addition that complements the song,If I can do that,I'm A happy man!

Allen.
