Description

I have fallen in love with this song....others on the site have also done pretty cool things with it.

I felt like playing some rock music, so i found the beat i wanted and began to play some chords...this five and a half minute jam with myself somehow turned into Houseof the Rising Sun...I really had no intention of recording it this way, but I had been working on an acoustic duet version for several days, and i think i was in rebellion...anyway...I built a rather schitzo musical bed and messed with the melody...soloed a bit...i had some fun with it...

peace

	oh ziti sounds like you enjoyed creating this. I am not one to critique music here. Just to say thanks for sharing...and you're one talented being. This song wouldn't be the same without the crybaby wah hardware right? :-) Check out my latest song called Hopes and Dreams

Can't fool me... I've SEEN Fran's house...
Although I've gotta say, that one in the picture looks like a real butte...

What a lovely and pleasant surprise, Mr. Zeetster.... A great take on one of my favorite, favorite songs...

Terrific guitar playing, well arranged...

Makes me want to do a folk song standard cover... join the crowd... it's all about peer pressure... that's how it starts....

	Like that jimi Hendrix sound Like that theme feel, you sure know how to wring out a lot of rock melody. I can almost see you with a musical rag (guitar and strings) and wringing out all these musical notes till the rock blues rag is completly dry. A try sign of a pro guitarist indeed. Hey, so cool ending Z! Check out my latest song called The Bluebird Cafe (with two other guest)

drifting out to sea...
This just pitches and rolls and drives relentlessly on through the waves, spray sheeting off the bow and blowing past me like sideways rain... not sure why this seems like a roaring schooner, but the speed and agility with which you play, and all the parts cranking fast and furious like that, with no breath between sections, felt like quite a great ride! I loved it... definitely like no other "House" I've heard before, which is great too, since there was nothing to hold on to and compare against, very fresh! And I loved the growly ending... awesome job there sir! Another fave/DL in my pocket!
ttfn,
Drakonis

	Well Drakonis already wrote exactly what I was about to write, so read his comment again. Except, now I'm thinking it's a galleon at sea. Very excellent playing, as usual Mr. Ziti. I like the schizo effect, the arrangement that sounds like a cinematic travel, ever changing. You certainly know how to jam. Check out my latest song called Machine Man (w Beastie Boys)

	you get a lot into that house! All sorts of tasty stuff in every nook and cranny! Wow! It's a little busy, probably, but certainly tons o' fun. Schitzo musical bed is almost an understatement, but it will be tough to top this version. Check out my latest song called Weather or Not w/awigze

	That's one nice house. I was so lucky as to get a preview of this. I loved it then and I love it now. I especially like the different styles and variations of the same melody. It's similar enough to recognize the lines, but different enough to enjoy them on a new level. Yet another nice piece of music! -Einar S. Check out my latest song called Good Things Come in Fours

Can't sing HUH
Seems to me you found your voice long ago... I got a big kick out of the Regea-estque section... into the octive effected solo... keeping your genre options open huh??? What are you using to get your guitar tones?... you record beautifully... I often go back to check your software choice... I often think "Fran must be using PT or some pro software"... just goes to show you ...IT's all about performance

Check out my latest song called Good Morning
