Members Karma1 Posted July 22, 2014 Members Share Posted July 22, 2014 I have a new album that I've been working on with keyboardist Steven Halpern and bassist Michael Manring. Its called Ambient Alchemy and is instrumental electronic music featuring electric guitar and guitar-synth, E-bow, fretless electric bass, and keyboards. Should be out pretty soon.

Members Into Nation Posted July 22, 2014 Members Share Posted July 22, 2014 I'm pretty mellow with my playing these days. Working on "Dream a Little Dream of Me" as recorded by Ella Fitzgerald. Honestly, I'm working on understanding why you are giving the Maple dude such a hard time. I don't like Brussel Sprouts so I don't eat or complain about them. It's pretty simple. He's posted some really good stuff and if you don't like - don't eat. I do hope he stays away from Rock Me Tonite though. Some real bad mojo there.

Members Chordite Posted July 22, 2014 Members Share Posted July 22, 2014 Music track for a film about several mental illnesses. It sounds tricky but it is actually a joy of a subject for a creative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DeepEnd Posted July 22, 2014 Members Share Posted July 22, 2014 I've been wanting to learn "You Must Have Been A Beautiful Baby" because it's been stuck in my head. I'd love to be able to do it fingerstyle but I can't play as well as I'd like. Also just wrote an original called "Heaven And Earth" and I need to make it presentable.

Members Etienne Rambert Posted July 23, 2014 Members Share Posted July 23, 2014 I opened a bistro a year ago this month. And in 1 year - I have not had ANY time to compose or record anything. I'm remixing stuff I had not finished and constructing 2 music videos in what little time I have. Plus - I work my day job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members gdsmithtx Posted July 23, 2014 Members Share Posted July 23, 2014 Working on a solo acoustic playing/singing arrangement of "Midnight Rider" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members PurpleTrails Posted July 23, 2014 Members Share Posted July 23, 2014 The Ray Charles version of Georgia on My Mind. I can sing pretty easily in G, but not F, so that version vs. the Hoagy Carmichael original. Before that I was working on Mr. Sandman. Doing the chord comping they both require really isn't my thing normally, but working through these songs repeatedly is forcing me to bring a little different musical thinking into my playing...which was the whole point of working on them.

Members speakerjones Posted July 23, 2014 Members Share Posted July 23, 2014 Two recording projects I have going on turned into bands, so I'm re-learning, then re-arranging parts for those bands and getting them gig-ready for the end of summer. Also learning some covers to add to the sets including (so far) Listen To Her Heart - Tom Petty, Bones - Radiohead, Golden Age - Beck, The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down and Don't Do It - The Band. Also, took over drum duties in a buddy's band. brushing up on 24 tunes, a mix of covers and originals. Fun stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Freeman Keller Posted July 23, 2014 Members Share Posted July 23, 2014 I'm working on an acoustic/electric that looks like an ES-175 and getting ready to build a Les Paul Jr out of some stunning flamed Spanish cedar. Will post pictures if anyone is interested. Also trying to learn two Vincents - Chet's version of Vincent:Starry Starry Night and Richard Thompson's '52 Vincent. Will NOT post clips of either....

Members Virgman Posted July 23, 2014 Members Share Posted July 23, 2014 I've been playing a Donald Kinsley solo I transcribed over and over. It consists of what could be thought of as 47 licks. I think I've played it about 1000 times over the last couple months. This solo has really grabbed me for some reason. I play it in different positions on the fretboard which helps to internalize it.

That's the way to know it and know it well I was afraid to open this because I thought it would be something about your Johnson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
