One acoustic track through a sure 58, Kontakt scarbi bass, vintage keys and addictive brush kit and a bunch of "oh yeah" vocal tracks.

Apologies to George but I love the song. Its shocking to find out that Paul and John rejected it until George dragged Eric to the studio one day. Imagine the White Album without this...
no effects of any type on this for good or ill.
I thought going into 50/90 that I would need to do some quick recordings of really simple arrangements. Maybe just acoustic guitar and voice. Nope, not really.
This isn't meant as filler. This idea is something I noodle on almost every…

Jan 17 2015 - Remixed. I was always kinda disappointed with what the original mix sounded like. Listening to it the other day I realised what it is - I'd mixed the vocals too loud. This reduced the "stereo" and killed off a lot of the life…

Pretty cool ...better voice than Hendrix and Dylan ....great guitar also
Ahh Yes.
Good one James, more nerve than me, and a damn better player.
One of my favourite songs, nice one!

James, why so many versions? I'm not complaining; they're all very good listening.
Another fine version lol!
..those eight fingers on your left hand come in useful, don't they, James? ...awestruck..
Great track! Play it, James!
This just keeps getting better & better! What a brilliant track! w;-)
Elements reminiscent of Zawinul, Mahavishnu, and Santana all merged into something else. NIce.
