O.K. I'm making the leap with quite a few others here lately and posting my first recording. Slide show for your enjoyment (or not) of Maya ruins in Palenque, Mexico which I visited recently. Have been through many of Adam's lessons and have started tabbing and working on new songs. So here's my first I've worked out. Cover of C. Musselwhite's "Blues All Night". Thanks for any and all feedback.
EDIT: Re-Bounced the audio track with added reverb
Musselwhite's stuff is so cool - great choice of tune. And a good performance too, sticking to the beat in a nice laid back way and getting a smooth tone. Sounds to me like you're doing very well, so the only thing I'd say is give it some reverb or delay to get away from the dry sound.
real nice stuff. Who is that backing track? Very slick. I especially like the gallery idea. Keep it up! I'm a big fan of Musselwhite. You do him justice. I second the above suggestion. You got nothing to loose, and even better 'tone' to win. You may surprise even your self. It expands the whole sound, when a good delay or reverb is added. Try it again with the effects...I'm curious.

Thanks guys. The backing track is from BluesBlast.com but it had to be pitch and tempo shifted with some cutting and pasting of the track for the V chord intro. I used Logic. Have just done a re bounce with added reverb. It does sound better to me. Thanks for the advice. Will post it in the morning.
Sounds good. Haven't heard the original but as far as constructive criticism: Play behind the beat some of the time, more slurs, add some double stops. Enjoyed the photos too. ---------- Ozark Rich __________ ##########
