Another instrumental. Several years ago I got a Behringer V-amp, and the first day I had it I wanted to play around with some of the odd guitar tones.
This was the result of that playing around.

Just a simple instrumental. My wife was working on a new piano style one night, and when she was done practicing, I decided to try my hand at it. I flubbed up the very first chord, but I loved the way my flub sounded, so I wrote a whole song…

The horn line came first, I started humming it in the garage one very cold morning in Feb. I was stuck for a title, until a friend used Kismet in a sentence. It's a fun bouncy number, though the mix is kind of bad.

This song was me seeing where I could go with some various chord changes and voicing. I was going for a rainy day in summer in the English countryside circa '72 feel for it. I kind of got it down, at least, my memories of it, which are foggy now…

Well, what can I say here? I knew I wanted to do this one with a pseudo dark, smoky old jazz club feel. I kind of pulled it off, but not completely. The song itself was a happy accident riff. I picked up my acoustic, threw a capo on for fun and…

This is the first song I made all by myself - words, vocals, bass, and highly FXed guitar- since I don't really play. The drum-track is by Boss BR-1180.

Sudara says: Just found this on my iPod.
