Thanks Becca,I'm glad you liked this.they're are several different genres I've dabbled in since joining this site,it's been very rewarding and we should try some of your music also.
Thanks for stopping by and reviewing.
This is great stuff. Nice tonality and just a hint of Hendrix influence. Vocals are great. I wanted it to go on longer and have a killer hook and solo. However the guitar was brilliant and the vocals engaging. Again, really great.
Hey Charlie!I knew you would hear those chords and know where I was coming from.
I felt the same way about a hook while I was recording to his vocal...I did want to add more but I have a feeling this is just the beginning and check out Kikajon's page here on the loop,we have more tunes up with the three of us,The Transatlantic Experience.
Thanks for the review Charlie.
Exceptional guitar playing here! I really love it. What a song. Not only is it put together well, but recorded with perfection. Nice production. Keep these tunes coming!
Thank you guitarjock,I appreciate your comments!
I wish I had the inspiration for these songs more often.I also appreciate your comment about the production since that and drums seem to be my biggest problems.So no drums and minimal acoustic guitars helped me a lot...lol
Seriously,thank you!
Mate you had me hooked right from the start, even before the vocal kicked in, brilliance on the guitar once again, so expressive the guitar fitting the vocal to a picture, as though both were meant for each other, absolutely stunning matey...instant fav here...Peace n Massive Respect MrV...Estefano...
Thanks Estefano,I am inspired by the talent I hear on looperman and Tacatta is a special inspiration for me.This site has been a blessing along with collaborating,it takes me places I might not ordinarily go musicaly and I'm grateful.
Thanks Numberjack,I've been playing since I was 10yrs old,my grandfather taught me basic chords so I do have to credit learning at a young age...and I've been through a lot of music since then!
Thanks again for listening and commenting.
this is simply STUNNING! this really reminds me of david gilmour on his 'on an island' album. i could listen to this for hours and hours and...more hours. big fav from me man, do more like this!
I love this man, everything about it is genius, the vocals really complete the package. The guitars are exactly what I expect when I listen to one of your tracks. You truly are a gifted musician and I love listening to your songs. I really like the tone of your guitar as well, what kind of effects do you have on it to get that sound? Anyway great track leaves me wanting more, Keep it up.
Hey Kyle,thanks for stopping by!I always appreciate your kind reviews.You know we'll have to try something together sometime.
I have to work constantly on tone and use probably the least preferred multi fx pedal,the Zoom g21u.I spend a lot of time turning knobs.
This is a distortion setting with stereo chorus and ping pong delay,It's a easy setting but I have to control the gain with my guitar volume knob so it doesn't get too dirty, which is hard with this pedal because it works best at full gain,it doesn't roll back like a tube amp,you can hear the guitar trying to "Fuzz" out.I tried my amp but there was too much noise and I do love the stereo fx from the pedal.I know I should control everything from the computer but i'm too old school,I even record on a external recorder and use the puter just for loops.Oh..I also use a combination of pick and fingers like with the acoustic,it's a little easier to control the gain that way.
I think all Tacatta does is open his mouth:)
you guitar playing is so expressive,its like emotion translated to music.As others have said here a beautiful piece of music!
And thanx Allen for for your kind words.
Thanks for your voice Jim,I couldn't have asked for a nicer vocal...Oh,I let the emotion in your vocal lead the way and the guitar was done in 30min after I got the tone that I thought would work,that takes longer than playing it!
Thanks again!
I like the simplicity of this track, couple nicely played guitar tracks and a strong vocal track. Perfect! Nicely put together, great mix, you guys are awesome!!
Hey thanks Wayne!Just loaded up his vocal and played a bit.The nice thing about Jim's voice is that it doesn't need any fx to sound good...all he has to do is sing and that is impressive.
Take care!
This is a class track Allen. your guitar sits smoothly on top of Spelljammers piano riff, and you rightly say you are both on the same wavelength. If any of the girls give this track a listen then maybe they could add a vocal and lyrics to your mastertrack but they would have to be exceptionally good to mix in the right way to your track. (just an idea). this is fav'd and dwnload'd from me.
Thank you Daniel!Vocals would be great for this and is what Spelljammer had in mind to begin with but you know how that goes, so many tunes get released as instrumentals so maybe someone will offer.I was thinking that we might start approaching them!
Thanks again for listening my friend.
Allen
..well allen..it would be difficult to come up with a superlative not already used in this forum..when you mentioned you played guitar..damn you certainly do..and extremely well at that!..i'll be around mate..'exquisite' work..there i found one not used! all the best..cait*
Mr V this is stunning, sorry thats all I can say about this baby, instant fav, so loving you on the guitar, doesnt matter what you do on the guitar it is always something special, extreme talent...massive thank you for sharing this piece and your talent....Peace n total respect dude....Estefano....
Thank you Estefano.For a while in my life I played for money and that dictated what and when I played,now I play for enjoyment,sharing and reviews like yours...it would take a lot of money to match that:)
Allen, That was some spectacular ripping.And man I gotta say Nashville's loss was our gain!! Your one hell of a guitar player and I thought the mix was excellent!
Thank you Chriss,it gets a little frustrating sometimes cause I seem to just get lucky with the production...it doesn't come easy and I keep hopeing I'll find that magic formula...or at least remember what I did when I stumble on to it!
Thanks again,
Thanks rei,you know I love some of your funk rock that I reviewed a while back and appreciate your music,I need to visit you more.
Thanks again for stoppin' by!
Dude you really do blow me away with your brilliance on the guitar, very funky piece for sure, mate you got the Eshar feel to this track, if I did not know it was you I would have said I was listening to one of Elaines tracks, excellent work on this one, love the bassline, good beat, nice synths and the stunning guitar work...massive fav this one my friend...Peace n Respect...Estefano....

Yes Eshar was quite an influence and an all around good person and talent...as yourself!
Your comments are always appreciated.
