Hey guys,

Love it!!

Bones

Fun stuff Jon! What you just recorded a rhythm track or something to get started and then emailed it back and forth?

Jon

Thanks guys! @Bones, yeah, I recorded a rhythm track, and then a track where I played a solo, the final melody, and more rhythm for Tomi's solos, plus the bass track. Then I sent that to Tomi, and he added a rhythm and a lead/rhythm track. We video'd everything, and I put it together. Lots of fun.

Tomi and I, apart from loving this music, are both very much into recording and microphones etc, so it's good to have little projects like this to work on And nice to get to play together more than once or twice a year at Samoreau!

Nice Jon .. !! I've sometimes found this tune hard to make worthwhile on guitar because you don't get those long notes dripping with vibrato like you can on a wind instrument. But the little details and fills from a second guitar makes it sound good. Thanks for sparing us a bass solo.

Bones

Wow, great idea Jon! What software did you use to put it together?

thanks

Jon

Thaks @Wim Glenn The countermelody was Tomi's idea - he sounds so good on it. I think the melody still works by itself though - it's one of my favourites to play at the moment. Some nice little turns to the chords, and what a great melody!

@Bones I used Pro Tools to do the audio (Tomi uses Logic) and Final Cut Pro X to put the video together.
