I was listening to the first wondering how you were going to get guitar and bass into it... and there they were :-)
Huge sound, works really well. Vocals get a bit lost in it for my money - but I was listening to the guitars by then!!
Wow...Andrew you are too kind. As a teen I would fall asleep too Electric ladyland or Axis...etc...maybe in some weird way it subliminally affected me...haa!
Back for another listen. I went to bed buzzing last night because of this. Over breakfast, the missus had to put up with me explaining and miming the virtues of this performance... (poor girl)
That entry at 1:19 - crumbs. And 3:38 til the end... And the end itself... It sounds so "live" that I'm expecting crowd noises!
Woof! Lovely.
When you want to do it, you've got the "expressive Hendrix" thing completely and utterly pegged - how to play it and how to record it - I'm in awe.
I know guitarists - and you probably do too - who'll sit around saying "oh so-and-so just copies Jimi/SRV/whoever" ... don't ever listen to them - they're just jealous lol. They bought the right gear, the pedals, whatever, and they still can't make the sound...
You've got it in the fingers/brain/soul, and I find it a joy to listen to.
Magnificent stuff.
Well, here we go then...

Yeah you know what it is that I want
Oh you knew, didn't you, before I did?
How many times did you wonder whether I would dare?
Oh never mind...
Take off your underwear

dr alfredo de pietra on guitars and myself on vocal duties. a slighty different mix from the two versions at songcrafters.

Somebody told me what the lover man said
And man did it turn out to be so true
If you take it
And you break it
You break that girls heart in two…

Well, What do i Know? (Lyrics)
Somebody asked me well what do…

With My Sister Kathy Bores
Last Waltz Of The Evening
The last waltz of the evening
Last dance of the night
I’m making the most of each beat of my heart
Music plays and I’m holding you so tight
Hard to see it come to an end
But it’s going to…
Here's the Classic from Boston from that time when my locks were flowing and i was 3stone lighter....with speed Demon Gene doing the music and yours truly trying his best on the vocals...hope you enjoy as much as we did doing it.....
We played this song a bit different from the record. More heavy, we recorded a live rehearsal and added some vocal tracks. Recorded in L.A. by Brian Clark
So come down, and fade away,
The lights are still hanging from last holidays.
And the place in the dark, we'd occupy,
Is leaving my heart, feeling nullified.
So slow down, and walk with me,
Dark empty lanes, under heavy leafless trees…
Good song here. I dig your vocals and the distant vocal. I want the drums and band to kick in and bash away with that guitar riff. I still like the way its presented here. :)

I didnt know how to do a mix when I recorded most of these tracks....way too much mudd and bass..

Very nice take on this one.
Yep one of my favourites too
I just KNEW you must have done this one at some point :-) Lovely version
Wonderful flavours - great playing!
Lovely..
tasteful finergings
tuff coolness
Andrew...that is a great story...lol! When you love music as much as you and I do its hard to explain...
Wow...Andrew you are too kind. As a teen I would fall asleep too Electric ladyland or Axis...etc...maybe in some weird way it subliminally affected me...haa!
I like the tune! I saw G3 in '97.
Very nice guitar playing, thanks for the song comments!
OK... I've got to dust my strats off now (I've been enticed away by a cute 335 recently).
Thank you my friend. I have never been much of a shred meister but I try to at least phrase my lead lines to fit within the song.

Great vibe on the lead, Smart playing, not too many notes,but rininging Out all the vibe and tone!!!!!!!

Loving your stuff - fantastic guitars on this one. So much expression in the lead.
