This is the same tune previously released by Akademie desTag in an acoustic version and bumped up a few BPM. While composing and playing I continually heard Frank Zappa lead guitar solos (although one would never pretend to such heights) and a Quicksilver album called Comin' Thru - strange! ftlpope

Welcome to the pan-side!! What a great jam here. Perfect for driving to or just standing there looking cool. The guitar is outrageously exciting, the bass-line is simple yet holds the entire piece together while the lead is free to walk up and down the scales treating our ears and emotions to a healthy dose of Jam-out. Stunning tune, this is a keeper!

hey ftl real fun to heat that trade mark guitar sound again thats the first thing that brought you to my attention that very unique sound, another crazy guitar jam, you are one awsome guitar and bass player, love the funky rhythm foundation with that funk guitar also happening, great production, all around a fun version. Another one for The Ride.

Great track Sir Andrew! Ditto on everyone else' comments. The only thing for me is I would like to here more bass tones in this piece. For my ears the electric tones are a bit on the treble side.( a little mid range maybe). You always come up with very interesting tunes and this is no exception. Excellent work my friend........peace
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #ffffff;">Schule der Nacht is another element of the ftlpope conspiracy being fomented in Waterloo, London, England along with Seekers After Smooth Things, Monas and Sorrows of the Languedoc (see also their distant cousin Milagre dos Peixes) all on this site. The name should be School of Night but as names in English are often nabbed before one gets there, rendering them in a foreign language (here German) dodges the problem – for insights, see Shakespeare’s Love’s Labour’s Lost and references to Elizabethan secret societies (Walter Raleigh, Christopher Marlowe etc).</span></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #ffffff;"> </span></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #ffffff;">More instrumental rock. The idea was to rediscover that ur-blues of some white 60’s and 70’s bands such as Led Zeppelin (first 2 albums), Allman Brothers Band, May Blitz (first album), Little Feat (first 4 albums) and ZZ Top in particular (first 3 albums) but then it all started drifting into The Meters, Funkadelic and more jazzy chord structures. Some of the material will be reproduced on Mixposure by another ftlpope band called Akademie des Tag (get it? Alternate to Schule der Nacht) who will do the same material on mainly acoustic or synthesized acoustic instruments.</span></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #ffffff;"> </span></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="color: #ffffff;">Keep the faith and keep it secret – ftlpope.</span></span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ffffff;">Click on the name to visit these other ftlpope incarnations:</span></span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ff9900;"><a href="http://www.mixposure.com/The_Sorrows_of_the_Languedoc/"><span style="color: #ffffff;">> The Sorrows of the Languedoc</span></a></span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ffffff;"> </span></span></strong></p><p style="text-align: left;"><strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ff9900;"><a href="http://www.mixposure.com/Monas/"><span style="color: #ffffff;">> Monas</span></a></span></span></strong></p><p style="text-align: left;"><strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ff9900;"><a href="http://www.mixposure.com/Seekers_After_Smooth_Things/"><span style="color: #ffffff;">> Seekers After Smooth Things</span></a></span></span></strong></p><p style="text-align: left;"><strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ff9900;"><a href="http://www.mixposure.com/Milagre_dos_peixes/"><span style="color: #ffffff;">> Milagre dos Peixes</span></a></span></span></strong></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ff9900;"><a href="http://www.mixposure.com/Akademie_des_Tag/"><span style="color: #ffffff;">> Akadamie des Tag</span></a></span></span></strong></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #ffffff;">all on Mixposure.</span></span></p>
