Here’s something to listen to while you wrestle with Christmas lights, or traffic, or disobedient children. Make a game of it — see if you can point out all the mistakes. I even open with one, to make it easier for you.
At any rate, this was my go at an “Add-a-Track” event (for lack of a better term) that recently went down at one of my favorite guitar Web sites: Wholenote.com. It works like this: Someone submits a backing track (bass, drums, keyboards, marimba… whatever) and then everyone takes turns playing guitar over it. While I generally think that five solid minutes of noodling is… annoying… this was mellow enough that I thought I’d take a shot.
Larry Carlton, eat your heart out!
On second thought… please don’t take my lunch money, Mr. Carlton.
Anyhoo… enjoy! Or not! Press PLAY to decide…
Oh… it’s worth mentioning that the backing track (entitled, “Bluetude”) was originally written and arranged by Scott Lerner.
Thanks, Scott!
