I just bought a new Gibson SG Standard guitar with P90 pickups. I bought it after listening to Steve Krell's Gibson Gold Top with P90's.
Here is my first recording with the guitar.
Lyrics:
Sitting in my living room
Sunlight will be fading…
Having another listen for that guitar sound :)
Funnily enough, my SG and Explorer have swapped pickups (wonder if this had anything to do with it?). The SG has come off slightly better I think, been using it a lot last few days - slightly more, er, raucous than this, but it can do these sounds as well now.

I hope you don't mind if I slap a track of acoustic lead guitar to this. Four bars into this and I was swiftly adjusting the tuning on my new Yamaha, and then... well, keep an eye and ear on your email.

And the shadows dance on walls

Just a reflecting time
The clock just seems to unwind
The silence gets so loud
Just a reflecting time

Take me somewhere I don’t know
Take me where the water goes

Now this is different! Love the interesting rhythm and how it all began. Delicious lyrics! ;) Love those bluesy licks. Superb vocals as always. Thanks for the big smile -- this was a lot of fun to hear and visualize.

So gorgeous, I tremble in awe as I listen. Remarkable lyrics, and the new vocals and additional flute are magical as well and appropriate for this fantastic song. You're the man!

Hey, everyone's getting into P90s! (Mine are in an Explorer - kind of an incongruous mix, but sounds great when when I can get up the strength to put it on!)
The SG sounds FAB!! And it's a very cool song... all sentimental guitarists know exactly what you mean :)

Morning Greg, Stopped by to hear the Greg Connor set. These are great tunes. Thanks, Steve
Having another listen for that guitar sound :) Funnily enough, my SG and Explorer have swapped pickups (wonder if this had anything to do with it?). The SG has come off slightly better I think, been using it a lot last few days - slightly more, er, raucous than this, but it can do these sounds as well now.
So, it runs in the family I see. Another great composition - endearing lyrics, great playing (and I love the whistles conversing with each other). :)
Sweet hearts and guitars, that extra limb which grows with us until it has become us. love this one deeply Greg.
I hope you don't mind if I slap a track of acoustic lead guitar to this. Four bars into this and I was swiftly adjusting the tuning on my new Yamaha, and then... well, keep an eye and ear on your email.

Yes, I just enjoy your band. Great singing and playing!
Good stuff!
Great reflection of what we're all feeling. It's been the summer of simple pleasures.
I love that 12 string sound!
Beautiful song. The pauses offer striking clarity.
Fantastic, and a poignant reminder of most people’s lives right now.
I had to stop for another listen.
Beautiful song, and production.
Good Stuff!
This is GREAT Terry!
Just a “feel good” song as we burn some lunch on the grill.
Beautiful message and wonderful song! It’s been a great Summer my friend. Here is the summary: https://alonetone.com/MTBottles/tracks
Sounds like the gal I’ve been looking for all my life.
Jazzy! Nice work on this one. You really made something of this.
Another great groove. Your mixing and overall sound is outstanding.
I love the sound of that electric guitar!
4 Track? I remember those days. Sounds like fun.
Different and beautiful. I like the build and drop, high/low contrast in the song.
I think you guys in Holland are having more fun than we are over here. One after another KC ! Keep them coming.
Lots of fun, my fellow Zoomers.
