Description : Take one acoustic guitar ( capo on the 4th fret ) and one tenor saxophone, add some magic emotional life experience and POW! Out came this beauty. Recorded in Ableton 5.1 through toneport. I'm not allowing downloads on this track as it is to be used for a charity album, I know you all will understand. All comments welcome. Cheers Slap...

Description : A blues inspired song with a modern day twist. Blues folklore history speaks of a crossroads where you can sell your soul for the price you name. Robert Johnson the blues guitarist was claimed to have done this very deed. It seems nowadays with the popularity of reality shows ect.... The Devil has more than blues musicians to pick from and many crossroads are being found, not just ones in the deep south.. All instruments and vocals Slap..I hope you all enjoy this one, Cheers Slap...

Description : Ok! The wizard that is Gizzard, has arranged the track for the next stage of our journey. Its time to load this into your DAW tempo 100, and add Vocals (Brian), guitar solos, effects ect. Please record your parts onto the track and also save the loops seperate, this allows the producer to hear where your parts fit, and then add the individual loops into their software to mix and arrange. If you have any problems, contact me via the contacts tab on my profile. Once you have added your parts and have yor loops ready, please load the song onto your tracks page and load the loops, to your loops page. Then post the links in the magic bus thread so all involved can see who's done what. I would like to thank Gizz for his work to date, and thank you for the fantastic loops you have contributed to get this to this stage so far..

Description : A unique opportunity arose for me last weekend to meet one of my all time saxophone hero's. I had arranged for all of my pupils on woodwind to have master classes with Snake Davis. Now some of you might know him, but I can imagine the majority of you are saying WHO! Well this guy plays with the cream, Paul McCartney, Amy Winehouse,Lisa Stansfield,M People ect.... One of the things which came out of these five sessions was the ability to play solo, no band or instruments, just one saxophone holding a melody/solo with chord changes, and making sure it sounds good. So hey ho I gave it a bash this morning and recorded this first time through, I'm really happy with it and if you all agree, then I will chop it into loops so you can all play as well, cheers Slap...
