Hard luck, tough town, lotsa soul &mdash 12/30/05 - 02:28:05 PM
Now that's a smokey instrumental! Love the tone on the lead. Is that a
result of the blue tube? The groove is very invocative of the title and
image. Gritty, down tempo, and soulful. Awesome!

Thanks everyone. The Blue Tube really just boosts the signal. The guitar is
supposed to be based on the Dumble Bluesmaster. It is a combination of two
Logic amp simulators, British Clean and American Gain. I bought Tone Heaven
for $20.00 which is just a collection of presets for GB/Logic effects. Why pay
someone for a bunch of presets? They don't all sound that great but some are
great and they give you a better understanding on how some of the effects
can be used for varied results. I almost thought this Dumble might be a little
muddy but some of the other qualities worked well. If you turn it up on a
good set of monitors it's not bad.

Thanks for the tip &mdash 12/30/05 - 07:22:28 PM
Sounds like Tone Heaven would be worth the cheap money- I like the
tone on this a lot. Plus you play it with so much soul- make the guitar
sing. There are only a couple of guitar players here that can carry a song
like this without vocals and keep it fresh all the way through. You, my
friend, are one of them. Great song!

Very Cool, Z! &mdash 12/30/05 - 08:08:21 PM
I love the rhythm guitar effects sound juxtaposed to that Blue Tube preamp solo guitar. It gives your lead work a rich sound. $20 bucks, huh? Hmmmm.

And I'm a sucker for that Hammond B3. It really pulled me in to this tune from the start, along with that kickin' bass. I really dig this arrangement!

Good job!

Not Bad &mdash 01/02/06 - 01:16:08 PM
Good song. Very nice guitar work. Smooth.
The drums kind of killed it for me. It just didn't blend with the rest. The
snair hits were just too hard and it became repetitive after a while. A new
drum track would do wonders for this peice. Otherwise, the song was very
well performed.
Cheers..... Marcel.

Really good guitar playing in here, and the bass and organ are really cool too. I need to listen to more of your stuff!

I've been listening to your stuff and it's so clean and well executed. Just
the scores don't seem to match. Is it because not everyone plays guitar?
