This is a collaboration between Finn (Auto Pilot) and myself for the SSTM. Finn did all the music and I did the lyric and vocals.

Finn's guitar absolutely rocks the house in this song!

I decided to do a cover of this Led Zeppelin song but to do it my way. I didn't want to stray too far from the original but I needed to make it my own. I wanted it in the acoustic genre but also wanted to rock it up a bit. So, as I often do, I enlisted a little help from my musical Mixposure friends. I want to sincerely thank Bud and Scott for helping bring this song to life and for helping me hit my vision.

Buddruming - Drums, percussions, and song poster design.

Scott Macleod - Fret-less bass and electric slide guitar.

Farrell Jackson - All vocals, acoustic guitar, and acoustic outro lead.

We hope you like it!

DrC - organ, drums programming, production and mix. Farrell Jackson - songwriter, guitar, bass, and all vocals.

DrC and I are working on a blues album of various blues styles. This is one more song closer to completion.

The lyric is a humorous look at the amount of time folks spend on social media and how it can affect relationships ie. Personal Computer Blues.

A song off my Orchid faded Sky CD. It's a bluesy rocker from the good old jammin' garage days...remember those days?

Farrell

A Blues influenced Southern Rocker that was inspired by my new guitar, a Fender Jaguar Modern Player.

The lyric is about the old concept that the grass isn't always greener on the other side.

DrC - all keyboards, drums prgm, mix and co-engineering/production.

Farrell - Songwriter, all guitars, bass, vocals, and co-engineering/production

I just finished a song called Fightin' The Fight. I wrote and recorded it quickly....a one day production. I'm using a 2010 Fender Jazz bass on the left side, a 1970 Vox Violin bass on the right, and 1972 Gibson EBO bass in the middle. The EBO is also the bass for the solo break. I have three tracks of vocals: Lead, hi and low harmonies. The drums are by a Zoom MRT3. No guitars were hurt during the recording of this song. I was trying to  think outside the box and using just the three bass guitars made it a fun adventure!

<p>&nbsp;</p><p><span style="font-size: small;">This is a cover song my good friend Neil Swanson sent over with a request for some guitar enhancements. I really liked Neil's fast tempo version of Oye Como Va so I did my best to add some good guitar enhancements to his already excellent music.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: small;">BTW - I'm calling it Oye (Oakie) Como Va, with no disrepect, because Neil and I are a couple of Oakies trying to do justice to Tito Puentes' great Latin song.

<p><span style="font-size: small;">Circle Circus is a Beatlesque type song idea that popped into my head. I recorded the basic tracks so I could hear it and stimulate some production ideas. It's finally all fleshed out with the help of DrC. </span><br /> <br /><span style="font-size: small;">Since the lyric is a jab at the current political antics in the USA, I felt it needed a Circus type intro atmosphere so DrC worked his magic and wah lah....here it is! </span></p><p><span style="font-size: small;">DrC did the drum programming and all keyboards/Dixieland horns....recorded at his place. </span><br /> <br /><span style="font-size: small;">I did the rhythm guitar, Mind Bender guitar, bass, lead guitar, and all vocals....recorded at my place. </span><br /> <br /><span style="font-size: small;">We co-produced and DrC mixed it.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: small;">Enjoy!<br /></span></p><p><span style="font-size: small;">Farrell Jackson<br /></span></p><p><span style="font-size: small;">http://www.mixposure.com/pages/iaudio/song_id=30388</span></p><p><span style="font-size: small;">&nbsp;</span></p>
