Harlem Tango (Frenchkid Instrumental) - AllenV

hello my friend,
Thank you so much!This was my first attempt adding guitar to another Looper artist's track.
It was so fun to do and came easy cause Frenchkid's song was so great and tailor made for some jazzy guitar.

Thanks for the review.
Allen

Thank you for so much of your time John!
This was when I first joined and found this song on Frenchkids page..he was very active then and I was just wanting to play on something in this style.
I played and recorded it before contacting him and he graciously allowed me to upload it.

Allen

Thanks again Becca!This was one of the first I did after joining the site.If I hear a track that guitar may complement I try to do my best,I've said it before...it's a win win!

Allen

Thank you DM,Frenchkid had this nugget over on his page and I just played along..he really has some great songs.
Thanks for the complement.

Allen

Thank you for the review.I would like to do more of this style of guitar,it was a pleasure.
Allen

Thanks again for listening to my tunes.I've said this before but never enough...I really do listen to the"song"when collaborating,it doesen't matter how many licks or how can I make it all about guitar.In this situation,I was the guest and as so I feel my role is to complement that song...even if it means playing just 3 notes...as long as it's the right notes all is good.In a nutshell,if someone says"this song sounds great"we all win...If someone says"song wasn't good but you sound great"then I failed,I coulda just done a 3min solo and not messed up the track cause it was fine before I came along.The tone complement is the same way...What works for this song...no one size fits all.
Did I say i'm glad you liked it:)
Allen

Thanks G.Frenchkid has some serious talent...glad we could roll this one up for you.
I hung out at your place for a while last night,great stuff.
Allen

Thanks and glad your here in any any shape or form,I make it a point to come and see you.
Allen

Thanks Estefano.I really wanted to play to this and knew it would pull it a little more to the jazz side.I just played along to his great track,sent it to him...kinda introducing myself,so I was pleased he allowed me to post it!
It makes it easy to do a good job when you start out with great material!
Thanks again.
Allen

Zappo,thank you.Frenchkid had a great song to play to.

Allen

Chase,I almost turned the computer off,then checked my email!Thanks for both awesome reviews!I play so much rock and Frenchkids song was a nice chance to jazz it up,I been over and reviewed some of your stuff and I love it,Strangled ins.is a nice one,gotta get back over there.Oh,and let me know if I can do anything for you.I like your style.

Allen

Thanks Chase,glad you liked it.I hope to do more of this kinda stuff,don't wanna be stuck in my rock and roll box all the time!

Allen

Thank you for the mad skills comment,when I joined this site a month ago I heard a song on here and the first line said"I want you to get mad"so I didn't have a choice!
Really,I do appreciate it.
Allen

Thank you for the awesome complement,even to be mentioned in the same sentence as AD is more than expected and appreciated!I agree with the distortion comment...if only you knew how many times I played some of the parts to get it right.I don't know much about recording but I have learned the miracle of undo/redo and punch in/out and it still took me hours because as you know if your in the middle of a bended note or seamless passage and screw up even those tools can't always help you out,I just have to start over,and I did.I almost went with a Santana sound just so I could use distortion and slide into my comfort zone,but reviews like yours make the extra effort worth it.
Thanks again

Allen

You got it.Check your email
Allen

Thank you Michael,glad I could help bring his song back around a bit.I'll be visiting you...50 tracks...WoW,Thats a long way from Mir to Raindrops,i better put the coffee on.

Allen

Thanks RM for the first review.I didn't want to take away from what he already had goin' just wanted to put a jazzy lead to it.glad you liked it and thanks for the complement,gotta get over to hear ya.
