Description : Just a slow classic rock tune I put together awhile ago. Now that the site is back up, I am uploading it today. It basically features two different lead guitars styles.

Starts out with a synth lead that goes throughout the tune. Done with my Korg M3

1st. lead is simular to a 'Robin Trower' type of lead. 2nd lead of more of a conventional style rock lead. (My interpretation anyway).

Hope you'll enjoy it.

It's guitar nerd heaven. You have a distinct style but you some how keep it fresh. I'll have to pay closer attention to how that your managing that. Always enjoy your songs. Very tasty, that old rock vibe with some electronic stank added in. It's a fun mix.

also thanks for your comment on Bonneville

Hi Randall.
Just wanted to stop by and say that i took a listen to the song you sent dad.. I'm truly amazed with the sound/song/structure etc etc..
And I would be honored to collaborate with you and dad!

I'll visit my parents for the Christmas holiday. So hopefully we'll record something then. (If i know me and dad right we probably will)

best wishes/

Hi Randy. Again I'm totally amazed over the full and wonderful rich sound you crank out of those Telecasters. I just recently got one Telecaster myself and I found that I play it more than my old banged up strat. Anyway, this is an excellent piece of music with a big, rich sound. A fav for sure.

Hi there /PMK

Thanks for your very nice review of my classic rock tune. so you also bought a Telecaster! Great. As you can hear, the sound is unique. I used 2 different guitars on this song. One was my 1972 Framus, a 'Les Paul' look-a-like, and then the Telecaster in the middle lead section.

If you would like to hear the vocals that 'Musicizmee' added to it, go to this link below and play it. She didn't add in a lot, as it was more of an experiment is all. But she still sounds great in it, and it adds to it.

So if you enjoy her rendition, let her know on her page please.
Thanks again for listening and your comments.

Great song. GReat mix. I've seen Robin Trower over 25 times and I can say you really captured his vibe and one of his 'colors' very nicely. GReat job!

Hi there TonyKnight,

Thanks for the listen and review of my song here. It just takes some listening over and over to get the jist of another artist song, and copy some of their licks/style. That's pretty much the way we all learn anyway.

Again, I appreciate the comments and I'll check out your page as well.

Thank you DJ,

Great that you enjoyed another one of my songs here. I plan on doing a slow 'slide guitar' blues song soon. I haven't done one in awhile, and I need to keep my practice up on slide technic.

Thanks again and am glad you enjoyed it.

Hello Richie,

I appreciate your review and nice comments on my slow rock song. Making a good song takes a lot of time and patience....since I am basically a one-man band here in my home, I have to put everything together myself. Sometimes I do the final mastering as well since I enjoy doing that part too.

I'll check out your page here and give you a review back.
Thanks again,
Randy

Thanks,

This is purely amazing. The leads are great and like Minor2go said, it is punchy and full. This is mixed really well, the placement of all the sounds/instruments used fill up the track beautifully (something I'm still trying to research and work on)

Nice job!

Hi there OmarMuk,

I appreciate your review and nice comments to my classic rock song.

Layering is part of the secret to getting a full sound I can tell you that.

Key Randy,
I love songs that I "get" right away,if you know what I mean and no offense to my experimental brothers and to all of us that do.

You stated from the beginning this was a classic sound and you nailed it with such ease that once again shows your experience and dedication to being true to your song.

I heard a little Frank Marino...which trails back to Hendrix as well as Trower on the first lead sound you used,even Pat Travers.I tell you that because I love it myself when someone hears my tracks and describes another guitarist that I may not have been channeling...lol,matter of fact,I sometimes get comparisons to artists I've never heard of and then look them up!

You accomplished what you set out to do and you did it very well!

Allen

big is the word that came into my mind first!!!
big sound, big song ...
amazing tone, but that shouldn't surprise me ... more than the tone I love your phrasing, every tone sits perfect and has it's time to develop ... simply awesome music!!!
wish you all the best Randy ...

peace, rei

Hello Rei,

Thanks friend for reviewing my rock song here. I had hoped I wouldn't disappoint you and apparently I didn't! LOL

This was a fun one to do trying to mimic another guitarist style. I think I came out pretty close.
Big sound comes from sustain using compression, and using a couple guitars in the background. You can hear what's going on by close listening, as I know you do.

Tone comes from choosing the pickup(s) to use...either front or back, or both in some cases....and I use the 'Line 6' vast library of amp sounds/effects avail. And most important is the use of a Metronome or 'click track' while recording. lol

Glad you liked it and will catch ya later,
Randy

Randy, it has been a while. How the heck are you? From the sounds of things, you are still in great form on the guitars :) My God man, you can flat play. The mix is as good as your playing. Another terrific effort from one of the best in the business. I hope life has slowed down a bit for you and you are working less and playing more. Great to hear your tunes again.

Hi there Barry,

So glad to hear from you. Once you left 'Lafango', I didn't know where you went to. Lafango is doing much better now.

Anyway's, I appreciate your glowing review. You have always been one of my favorire artist on here as well.
As for me, yes...I am retired from all work and am making more music. I uploaded a country tune called 'Country Rt-96' last week you might enjoy if you haven't already heard it. Some say it is my best work to date with country.

I am planning on doing a slide guitar Blues tune pretty soon with my Dobro. Takes time to do it right as you well know. I am particular with my productions, and always have them final mastered when I am done.

As I continue to say...my songs will be on the Internet forever, but I won't be! Lol
I'll check out your page here and see what's new there.

Thanks again,
Randy

Description : This is my newest creation, at a stage very near to completion. No third-party mastering or mixing, as with all my tracks. Just have to fix a few tiny things. I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO MIX EVERYTHING IN THE SAME SESSION. This song has all human-played instruments - no quantization or MIDI! My brother does all the vocals except for the interlude part, which I do. My other brother plays the rhythm guitar (a Gibson Les Paul Custom - only one of 12 in the world!!) and I play the accompanying guitar (a Johnny Mar Jag and PRS). He has a lot of guitars :P A good friend of ours, Ronnie, plays the bass and another friend, Freddie, plays the drums. The drum track was done in one take (had to use an electric drum set due to time constraints - but acoustic kits are so much better). Overall, pretty satisfied with the result. Let me know your thoughts.

Description : The first track I sing on. Cheap stage mic & no fancy plugins. Heavily guitar laden to the point it's got a bit of a shoegaze thing going on. I pulled the lyrics out of my ass & yes, they're a bit silly.

Description : BIG UPDATE 26/02/2014 - So, this was an 18 min track that I have now successfully split in two. 2nd half I uploaded a few weeks ago (Things That Should Always Be, with the bouncy 2 min reggae intro). This is the first half, which has a new mix, a mega chill, meditative ending and a little jazz thrown in for good measure. Takes a few minutes for beat to really kick in. Constantly evolving electric guitar, bass guitar, acoustic drums and lead banjo driven by fat, busy 80BPM grooves with a bit of a reggae and shuffle feel. Also: synth choir voices, dulcimer, violin, cello, shimmering pads. Builds up gradually to nice and rocking and then gets taken back down for the big comedown chill. I really don't know what sort of genre this is except 'far out'. I think it sounds more like a live band than one guy playing instruments and manipulating a DAW. Not my best track but a bit of blissful, sunny island fun. Real positive vibe here so I hope you give it a chance to unfold and unfurl. Sit back, clear your schedule and immerse yourself in these trippy sonic experiments cooked up deep in my off-planet underground laboratory. I have to send the MP3 to Earth via space courier (not cheap).
