is really good... love the melody and all those great melodic spacy liquid sounds. I honestly don't know who this Sattriani bloke is (LOL), but if he's half as good as you, I might like him too, cheers M

Satriani... &mdash 01/29/08 - 10:54:31 AM
...makes the term "Heavy Metal" meaningless. Transcends the term. He's, quite simply, a virtuoso on the electric guitar. A modern day Paganini.

dropping right in... &mdash 01/29/08 - 11:07:07 AM
I love how you set things up at the very beginning to be light, then it felt like I literally DROPPED down in the the seat when 0:14 hit, nice. Then this just slithered along like a 20 pound sidewinder... loose and a little dangerous. Nice backing work, and hot guitar solo. Nice clean recording and balance too... hard to do with cranking distorted guitars, but sounds good.

Dude,
Great gits and brave of you to openly draw the comparrison with the incomparable (how drole) mr. Satch. Keep drinking!

P.S. Think I'm getting all nostalgic for a flame war!

Flaming (war) Pie.... &mdash 01/29/08 - 07:39:50 PM
Dude!!!!

Thanks fer stoppin by man! Been a while!

Now, by "drole", I'm gunna assume that means "gosh ronnie, you sure do kick ass at guitar"- cuz silly me I couldn't find that word in the english dictionary... Unless... you are French? are you? Frenchy?

Hahahahahaha....

But anywayz... of course I'll keep drinkin... maybe one day I'll be as good as mr. Satch.

:)

that's "droll" &mdash 01/31/08 - 11:10:54 AM
as in "troll" :)
droll: as adjective: curious or unusual in a way that provokes dry amusement,
as noun: a jester or entertainer; a buffoon

[ Reply to This ]
:) &mdash 01/31/08 - 12:34:25 PM
Oh no JIm...

I know the meaning of "droll"....

I was simply making light of his spelling of the word... as it is not found in the english dictionary... hence calling him "frenchy"... but alas I assume it means the same in either language...

In short... I most certainly am a "buffoon" (if by buffoon you mean kick ass guitar player...hahahaha j/k)

Anyways... back to drinkin'... too bad you couldn't comment on the actual song Jim.

:)

Evil. Aint I?

[ Reply to This ]
It is I &mdash 01/31/08 - 11:06:40 PM
who was being the troll!

Actually I couldn't listen to the song because I was working...but now that I do, it sounds good. Sweetly melodic, you ol' softy!

:) Evol, ain't I?

Ronnie &mdash 01/29/08 - 05:04:39 PM
I enjoyed this, I have really enjoyed a bunch of Joe's material and think you've done a terrific job here. So much I can comment on how I think is cool. Everything on this is fun to listen to.

Thanks for mentioning joe's name cause I think you do an outstanding job. To me this is my fav of yours.

You do him proud Ronnie!
Congrats on a terrific job I think. Thanks for this great musical post!

A kinder gentler Ronnie? &mdash 01/29/08 - 08:00:13 PM
Nice chops, Mr. Thatcher. You can turn it up and tone it down at the same time which is why you are still one of my favorite MJ guitar heroes.

Loving the melody of this one! Rock on!

under the influence &mdash 02/04/08 - 10:32:30 AM
Always good to have our heroes and folks that influence us to write good stuff - It does have that here, but I guess I never heard this one before :)

nice.

As always - Smokin'! &mdash 02/05/08 - 12:57:16 AM
Lead comes on like liquid silver. The tone is gorgeous and the way it builds to the fireball moves midway is excellent. The production overall is rich and fat - loved it.

Wow &mdash 02/06/08 - 01:26:49 AM
I love Satch, and this is a great instrumental piece. I listen to alot of Steve Vai, Satriani, Buckethead, Blues Saraceno.. ect And I have to admit this stands up with the rest of them. I wish I could write a piece like this. IM JEALOUS lol.

[ Reply to This ]
Wow! &mdash 02/06/08 - 06:41:22 PM
Seriously soulful! Nice.

Great melody and silky smooth searing tone. I like how you dance around the main melody without losing touch with it. Killer chops as always.

well ronnie.... &mdash 05/07/08 - 12:34:28 PM
this isn't barbershop either!! :) but i like it - it's not nearly as purple as i expected it to be or am i changing?? thank you dear mr long xoxoxo

New to MJ - love the melody &mdash 05/15/08 - 02:49:52 AM
I can't believe I've been wasting my time just listening to what's on the radio. This forum absolutely rocks.

And what about people like you?! Holy crap, dude, they should be paying you big coin for what you do. One of my Satch faves is Always With Me, Always With You, and I'd put this one of yours pretty damned close to it. (I'm always a sucker for a good melody.)

Kudos!!

Rock An Droll &mdash 06/26/08 - 05:22:31 PM
Pie cracks me up. He's as subtle as, well... a Pie in the face. :P

Nicely done, Ronnie. I wouldn't hesitate to put this on your Punkish demo. Some folks actually like to discover that you can do more than just play A-D-E and scream, grunt, fart and expectorate. hehe

Some folks still appreciate versatility. ;)
