man it sure feels great to be a guitarist again.. I really appreciate what this site has done for me.. brought me back to my roots.. GUITAR PLAYING !!!!!!!! so THANKS for all the thoughtful reviews for this new little BT jam.. FUNKIN WITH BOB.. awesome guitarist bob forbes (redeyeC) invited a great musician and guitarist we all know and love.. nigel potter.. and also me to collab for his M3 ensemble page on SC.. rapster got the funk and nigel and bob got the rock parts.. but the the two different beats and feels just didn't seem to match.. so we redid the thing.. changed the collab Colossus to the great rock beat.. I then took my funk parts and just glued them together to make a BT style jam for all you great guitar buddies out there cause that was a tradition on this site.. still alive and well in the forums I believe.. BT means backing track.. and I got to say once again that bob's beat and bass were just too cool not to go back to school and play all the way through like a mad fool..
what really inspired me too was to find frank's arabic looking pic cause it fit perfectly the type of sort of eastern sounding lines i had in mind.. and even better cause everybody tells me i remind them of frank.. so this bit of guitar jamming is in memory of frank zappa who also liked it exotic.. cheers..
I've been away. I'll be gone again. But I'm here right now. Just trying to pick up where we left off. For now, that will have to do.
Good to be here.
Hi All
I've gone a bit funky lately (playing wise). Here's another video done by my son and I. Dont mind the traffic in the background, its just my familiy milling about.
This one is called the Chicken jam. Its got a nice little turn around and if you like, perhaps we can start a jam. I wonder if we can link up video files to the one backing track, with a take from a few players. Now that would be cool!

Well this song was a total goof in Rob's, not sure if I should say "honor" or "expense" there hehe. We decided that laughter is the best way to heal so this was the end result. Rob feel free to toss any insults you would like our way. We hope this makes you laugh.

You know, I participate in several on line music sites and once again I have been shown just what a good place IMS is. The community here is a real community that supports other members. I've been dealing with my own health issues lately and though they are mild compared to what some have had to go through, its still occupied my time and my mind. But I still come in here and check out whats new and whos making music. Theres not much more I can add. IMS rocks because the members rock!
I haven't updated in ages and I may have not replied to some new reviews but i've been working constantly on a few tracks that i cant get to where i want them to be *Grr*
Ive got a start anyway to upload now so im gonna put that up (its called "Pass Replaced"
ive been working on mastering a lot rather than tune and the clip thats up stops just before its about to get good but im not happy with the next part yet so its not in =(
ill do some replys and reviews aswell to catch up
Our debut album is now available from: http://www/cdbaby.com/cd/philter
It's a blend of styles from dance through to more contemplative pieces.
