You! My Song... - SLAPJOHNSON

Description : This song is about desire (forbidden fruit). I'm sure this little story will ring true with a few here. I have pulled all the stops out on this, 9 piece horn section, soaring lead guitar intro and link from my Les Paul, bass and tenor sax solos (first bass solo I have ever recorded). The song has a blues flavour with a twist of slow latin mixed. I don't know how that happened, but I'm glad it did.

All comments welcome,
Cheers Slap...

This is epic, reminds me of santana, Only crit is that the lead guit is too far "back", less reverb could bring that great guitar line to its rightful place at the lead of the band. Otherwise great Mix, great playing.

Hi Acrylic, I will look at your suggestion on the guitar issue, I feel you have a valid point. Being a woodwind player firstly reverb is a effect I always use, however I have to start thinking of the guitar as a guitar and not as woodwind. Thank you for your kind supportive words..

Nice one Slap. It's almost got this eerie Eagles sound to it with a kick of Carlos Santana. I really enjoyed it!

I love this track Slap.
I'd have loved a deaper bass solo though, but the high notes worked great.
Are you using an octaver on the lead guitar parts because something sounds wrong with it, pitch wise. Other than that it's perfect.
Great track.
SLAPJOHNSON
SLAPJOHNSON replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Hi Helix, I did'nt use an octaver pedal, but I did cut and paste the guitar and transpose it down a octave. It kind of clashes in places! I have now remixed the song and removed that part, I think it has now fix that problem. Thanks for pointing it out... Cheers Slap...
