Description:
Many thanks to David Thomas (PerceptualVortex) for the huge drums. I had recently come across some old (circa 1987) cassettes of jam sessions. They were done on a 4 track, and I was able to isolate the guitar on one. Not sure if I'm the only one who enjoys this, but I love to recycle ancient audio. I was fortunate in recreating a new sound bed, but the drums totally stumped me. Thank you PV :-)

This sounds great for something that was salvaged from 1987 or any other time. The drums are great and even something a little different sounding from KTB. [ Reply to This ]

Z, it was a challenge gettin the guitar to sync. I especially like that you think its a lil different. Thx for listening

love that synth organ! &mdash 03/15/08 - 06:25:44 PM
And PV constructs the perfect drummers groove! It's indeed a bit different a little like fusion John Scofield and I like it! I especially like the chord chops the guitar does at around the 3 minute mark, as they are so dirty and the last solo seems to be built on that structure. The outro is probably my favorite part. Cool! [ Reply to This ]

Wow KTB &mdash 03/15/08 - 06:56:46 PM
This is like digging up an old treasure, and what a great job of polishing it up. I like finding some of my old stuff, but usually after listening I wish I hadn't. The guitar on this is really good. I love the B3 and just an incredible job by PV with the drums.
Great find thanks [ Reply to This ]

I think theres a song title in there somewhere. Appreciate the kind words [ Reply to This ]
Artists &mdash 03/15/08 - 07:18:10 PM
Great jam. PV's mixing and drums are sharp. Rich's guitar soars over the the combo as it should. And I heard some rocking keys in there too, nice job KTB. Cool Stuff.
Thanks

excellent salvage job... timeless. Love the keys, as always, the guitar sounds just fine (after you did your timing magic)... and Dave's drums are always so alive and tickle my ears. Great stuff!

Fran, your sets at the Firefly were incredible. Your tune selections were the best.
I agree with you re: Rich. He's a local too :-) [ Reply to This ]

you continue to amaze me man.
What a very cool over all sound. The sounds blend together real nice. The bed and soloing just sparkle.
Great playing & mixing.
Sweet.

Ziti has a gig we'll have to make a point to get together. Missed you at this latest Mj fest. [ Reply to This ]
Absolutely &mdash 03/18/08 - 01:39:27 AM
Of course there's a lot to enjoy here... &mdash 03/15/08 - 10:12:46 PM
...the very sustain-y guitar lead is great, the comping bed from ktb is always the tasteful and deceptively essential bit...
And I want to say that I continue to be amazed at David's ability to come in AFTER a track's begun and think like a drummer and come up with stuff that sounds like he was playing along the first time it was played/recorded...
Neat meld of the new and old, guys...

ditto &mdash 03/16/08 - 08:41:49 AM
that re: David's ability to create monster percussion tracks. In this case much after the fact. Maybe we can get him to show us how he does it. That and juggling :-) [ Reply to This ]
totally &mdash 03/15/08 - 10:52:45 PM
totally rocks.
fantastic how you were to create a whole bed just from a guitar solo.
and Dave's drums on the mark and real. i think all that juggling has kept him in form. [ Reply to This ]

Vic, when I play just that guitar track I can hear the old drum machine we jammed to. Thank God for that. 'preciate you stoppin by [ Reply to This ]

if you didn't tell about the old stuff salvage I don't think I could understand that! Rock on!!!! [ Reply to This ]
hey &mdash 03/16/08 - 05:20:39 PM
sending you mirage funk with some noodling. That track is great. Thx for letting me jam to it. [ Reply to This ]
first off &mdash 03/16/08 - 07:57:04 AM
best drumming i've heard from dave...hands down....that synthorgan is very soulful...and the lead guitar playing is tasty......my only compositional critique to make this better is to chop the guitar lead into sections and create some breaks/transitions for the band.....so u don't have one long guitar solo....i like the music ..it cooks......and we are due for another collab.....bassist drewkopr is working on a track that will need some keys ......and percussion by dave if he is interested...should be kool.....cya [ Reply to This ]

absolutely. One of the things I wanted to do was surprise my guitar buddy, Rich. with a blast from the past. Thx McBoy [ Reply to This ]

Drums after the fact must be hard as timeing gets altered especially when it comes from a 4track originally
Good job guys thanks for posting it [ Reply to This ]

Very cool John... lOvEd the bass and the keys are outstanding.. and who's that guy on guitar? he's really good! David, those drums are outstanding as usual. great collab... loved this from start to finish. [ Reply to This ]

Man, this is hot! I think it's really neat that you could resurrect the old recording and do this. I really enjoyed this one! [ Reply to This ]

KTB &mdash 03/16/08 - 12:05:53 PM
This turned out great, man! I love the guitar and organ in here, and the new bass really holds it all together. It was fun putting together the drum track, thanks for getting me involved with this! [ Reply to This ]

David, that was like the staples 'easy' button. For me at least :-) Many thanks for pounding vibe. [ Reply to This ]
Great groove &mdash 03/16/08 - 05:52:33 PM
and an absolutely killer bass sound (and playing) - it just throbs out of the speakers. Nice guitar work too, and those drums are indeed big and very effective. This is very nicely done. Kudos. Peace. [ Reply to This ]

David, coming from you I take that as high praise indeed. Thx for the positive review [ Reply to This ]

This is a real gem you unearthed, KTB, and thank God for digital restoration you really cleaned it up clear and crisp! PV added a layer of sheen with his awesome percussions. Must be really satisfying to sit back after all was done and enjoy and re-live this track from an era in your life all over again. [ Reply to This ]
golden oldies &mdash 03/17/08 - 08:51:40 PM
Leon, it was a real blast doin this. The original guitar track only had a hint of the old drum program, but once I added the other parts and Dave's crushin drums it all seemed to gel. Thx for commenting [ Reply to This ]

Wowsa &mdash 03/18/08 - 06:34:27 PM
This sounds wonderful and you did a great job of reverse engineering a track to go with the guitar; it sounds completely organic and completely groovy. David's drums sound wonderful and it's cool to hear him "drumming" in a slightly different style than we usually hear from him. Thanks for getting his voice back here on the site, too. I've been wondering when he would post something. He hasn't since last November and I was starting to wonder if he'd been sitting around playing Scrabble or something... [ Reply to This ]
somehow &mdash 03/18/08 - 07:28:15 PM
when I think of David I can't imagine "downtime" unless it has to do with describing his formidable percussive talents. Lisa, I really appreciate you listening and taking the time to comment. [ Reply to This ]

Nice &mdash 03/22/08 - 01:02:11 AM
This is another fine example of an excellent collaboration! It sounds like it was all recorded in the present time and not pieced together from several decades. Great job people! [ Reply to This ]
I've said it before &mdash 03/22/08 - 10:02:02 PM
But you'd be my keyboard man of choice... and I'd have your ears all over every production... lots of testoserone here... testicular fortitude, is the refined way to say it has "balls"...
great stuff John... very Jon Hammer with Jeff Beck [ Reply to This ]
testicular fortitude &mdash 03/23/08 - 08:52:59 AM
Theres a band name in there I just know it :-) Scott, always great to have you stop by and offer encouragement. This is more of a jam per se, but it definitely represents the type of stuff we used to play for hours on end when we got a chance to jam! [ Reply to This ]
yummy... nice &mdash 03/26/08 - 10:46:02 PM
I loved this song. It really sounds great. The drums are perfect and I am really impressed that you were able to recycle this from years back. You are very talented and very good!!! [ Reply to This ]
very impressive &mdash 03/27/08 - 01:26:21 AM
I'm first amazed you captured that much quality on a 4-track back in '87. Then the work the other guys put down on this. I can't play in time well enough to save my life, let alone have a drummer come in and blow it away like that. Great job to everyone involved. This track is great! [ Reply to This ]
nice &mdash 03/28/08 - 11:42:32 AM
great groove here, and great guitar work. glad you dug it up and got it synced! [ Reply to This ]
I'm always a sucker for this style of keys &mdash 03/29/08 - 01:47:21 AM
Top addition in David's drumming - guitars, bass and keys all work really well. Some lovely bass parts in there.
Cheers,

Great &mdash 04/12/08 - 09:17:10 PM
sounding organ. Reminds me of Keith Emerson. Cool jam. Kind of a fusion thing. Yes the drums sound great, and so does the guitar work. Great job
