I just posted a song I recorded last night. It's not really finished or mastered but you get the idea. The song is based on a poem my father wrote called "Flying".

I like it.
I think it's the best one you have up. I like the melody line over those chords, and the lyrics are great.
Simple and beautiful.
I want to play on it. LOL

Sounds like you channeled "Bob Dylan". And that'd be a compliment, in case no one knew.
(weird crowd around these here parts of late) lol

Why thank you gentlemen. I though it sounded like Deathcab for Cutie but what do I know. My dad was a great poet, he would get up at 4:30am a write. It's easy to write a decent melody when you have good words.

I just posted a new song I recorded tonight. No words yet but it's a work in progress; it's called Neon Black, play it loud!

Woah, nice work on "Neon Black" man. I love the main riff, very cool. I would say that song has a Jimmy Page sound in the solo. The main riff sounds like what would be used as a heavy metal movie soundtrack piece, be great for a Jet Li fight scene.
Nice work man. Peace out, GuitarAnatomy.

Jimmy,
I will check it out as soon as I can. They frown on that when I do it at work.
I love your stuff anyway so I am sure it's great.

DAMN Jimmy,
Man you are kickin out the jams with Neon Black. I didnt realize you could rock out like that.
What are you using for your guitar sound? Are those live drums or a program? I love that timing change in the middle. The first part a rocked out When The Levee Breaks comes to mind, the breakdown is pure Soundgarden and then the harmony leads brought to mind Thin Lizzy. I love layered lead lines.
You need Ronnie James Dio to sing on top of that one man.
Thats kickin, I need to post some new stuff myself. Anyway both songs sound great but you can tell I prefer a lot of distortion. Good Job.

* Blushing * aww thanks JW! I used my 79 Les Paul tuned to E-flat and the E dropped to D (which makes it C#). My Marshall TSL provides the crunch, no stomp boxes were used. My friend Bill played drums, he's a great musician who can play anything - drums, guitar, keys, etc. I then overdubbed the bass and second guitar. What you hear was straight from the board, no mixing. Dio sounds like a perfect fit but I don't think he's available lol. Thanks again for your support, you and Weg are two of my favorite axmen here. Rock on!
