First Funk 8.27.2006 This is just a simple blues progressions that I put together in about an hour. I was experimenting with new software and re-learning how to record so it's a bit rough.
Merrily Rotting Away 8.28.2006 I was taught this song by a guy in Columbus, Ohio back in 1991/92. He played this once for a group of us at a Bible study and I wanted to learn it. I still don't play it that well, but I enjoy playing it, particularly the runs in between each verse. Anyway, this is a fun song for me.
Practice Shuffle 9.4.2006 I've been playing around with this song for about a week. I started off with the drum and bass lines and the decided to try my hand at some rhythm guitar. I'm pretty good at rhythm, particularly when I finally get into the groove. I just hadn't played around with recording rhythm. Once I got that done, I recorded about five solo takes and the one that appears in this song is the best of them so far. I know, it's not saying much, but it was fun messing around. I also got the fade at the end to work and tweaked a couple of other things with the song. Overall, this is another practice song to get used to the software and to get back into playing with a "band".
Blues in A 8.7.2007 I wanted to try something a little different. This is a song that I will be updating as I get better at improvising over different blues and jazz progressions. But for now, I like this tune. I flows nicely to me.
316 6.26.2008 This is the Van Halen tune from "For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge".
Get Funky!!! 7.13.2008 I've been messing around with this song for a while to see what I could make of it. I have my own impressions and complaints, but I won't list them here. Listen and judge for yourself. :)
