One of my fave tunes. I spring it on guys at open mics all the time. Too many drummers can't do 6/8.

Nice take Red. Like you use of repetition.

Ed, you never cease to entertain. Love the fire.

Great track Ant! I'm all over this baby! In the morning....

Ant-killer tone and sweet motific ideas. Smooth and silky the way I love it. Great take.

Ed- Other than the dog party, I think I preferred the mp3 take. Nice ideas and cool tones. Some interesting harmonic things going on there. :dude

Can't wait to jump on this one!

Scott

[Normster]

Very cool song, Ant. I've been living under a rock for most of my life so I've never heard this one before. (I did my homework though and listened to the Wayne Shorter version. ;) )

I love your tone and playing, but I especially appreciate the education I'm getting on jazz standards. Thanks for sharing!

I'm gonna work on this tomorrow. :D

GREAT take man!

Unbelievably soulful, hip, and with a tone that's not pretentious.

I've loved this version for a long time!

You have the perfect tone that fits your playing to a "t".

Looking forward to your take over the Anton track.

Happy Birthday!

Hmmm.... Ever since seeing Scott live you are riding the bar?? LOL

Awesome stuff! A bit microtonal maybe? Was that on purpose or a side effect of the bar? In any event, I may not post now you bastard! J/k... If I can sneak downstairs now, I'll try and give it a go.

:cool:

Yeah, I'm not really doing the "bar" thing all the time, just on this take, and every now and then.....

I was actually going for some microtonal things.....just trying out something different.....

Now, get to tracking YOUR take!

Btw, I escaped into the basement for 10 minutes this morning but was not able to get set up before I had to get ready for work. I'll try to do it later.

Ouch, I'm so hurt. Really, do you think it matters whether somebody dislikes my playing or not?
FWIW, maybe you should check that ego at the door. It isn't proportional to your playing.

It's hardly ego that inspired my opinion.

I suck a little bit more each day, and can only hope to hang on for another few years, with my current hand problems, newborn with Down Syndrome, etc.

I just don't "get" your attitude towards me.

Until my moment of honesty with you, I've never had a bad word to say about you.

Here is my quicky hack job! Talk about overplaying! I grabbed my Heatley. That neck is sooooo comfortable! Fuchs SLX30, THD 2X12 and e609 mic for a change.

Thanks Ant! I remixed it with half the delay... Thanks for setting me straight. Nice to have another set of ears....

[markp]

Scottl,sounded great.
what speakers?
Are you still diggin the wizzards in Bob Burt?

[Normster]

Ah shit. I leave this thread for a day, try to learn this tune, and come back to nothing but monster players. That's it, I ain't gonna take it any more. Midget players have a right to post too...a very small right. ;)

My little swing at it...

Footprints, sorta (http://www.digitalsoundplanet.com/Members/000135783_000011164_proj.mp3)

Positive proof that not everyone on this board is a monster.

I do like the Wizzies... I still need to play around with the Tonespotter. This clip was Cl80. I have to apologize for the clip I posted. I was experimenting with the e609 and the clip is real honky. I think I'll record a new clip. I can't listen to this one...

Thanks for listening Mark.

[edit] I was so bugged by the honky tone, I did this little snippet with the SM57 mic and the Heatley in single coil mode. Much better.... Tomorrow I will redo the whole thing. http://www.scottlernermusic.com/mayclips/AntPrintsNewTone.MP3

[Dave35]

Thanks Scott. your stuff sounded great. Wish i had the speed and ability to move all over like you guys do but im self taught and cant read music and dont know scales and stuff so i just kinda play where ever my fingers go...and they are fat fingers :)

As for gear, im just a living room rock star....Ibanez RG370 on all my stuff lately. My Jem is in the shop for a major overhaul. Its 19 years old and need some TLC. played and recorded thru a GNX4. As i told Ant when i posted this elsewhere, i screwed up on the gain sectino and hit the wrong bank...instead of my fuzzychorus thing i wound up with an Eddie Van Halen preset i had made. After i started into it i realized it didnt sound right, looked down and saw why. but, i got line drived in the hand this week and it was hurting too bad to start over :)

Also recently discovered that this GNX4 volume pedal also was a WAH pedal so that was my second attempt at using one. As i told him, im not sure i posess the dexterity to use one tho cause it fries my brain trying to coordinate feet and fingers together

[scottl]

Thanks Dave! You sounded great dude. Keep doing what you are doing!

I went back and subtracted some 1.2khz from my take. It made it a bit more articulate. I am still going to rerecord tomorrw ;)

One of my faves of your clips here, SL.

Nice to hear ya going for it, lots of attitide/personality. Transcending influences, etc... Lotsa notes, but shows a different side of your work.

Will check out your other 'Prints take later - busy day here... Will also try to listen to all the other folks takes...

[vladorg]

Wow,
what an amazing thread!Just terrifying playing from everyone!Anton,ScottL,ScottJ,Ed,Normster,Dave35 sucha great job guys!I swear, some of the takes almost made me give guitar playing-they were so good,yet so different from one another!Here is my humble take on that Wayne Shorter classic:

Footprints(or something like it) ! (http://www.guitar.com/useruploads/133091/MP3/052105154501.mp3)

My take is not over Anton's excellent backing(I'm kinda lazy and busy) but it's taken out of a recent jam with my trio.And again,nowhere near as good as the stuff posted here before!

Um... Not sure what you based your opinion on in regards to Scott's playing Ed. But if ego allowed were in proportion to playing, this man can have one the size of Alaska and change. (BTW Scott does not have an ego. He is actually quite the opposite. Check out his web page.)
I have listend to tons of clips of his playing and it is astounding in all regards. Phrasing, technique, speed, tone, harmonic note choices, timing, vibrato, versitility. His abilitly to play incredibly powerful, harmonicaly colored "outside" lines while getting "inside" the changes are on equal footing with "any" of the best. A players, player indeed. Let's all wish him the absolute best of luck(I don't think he needs it) in the Guitar Player Magazine, Guitar Hero competition that he has been selected to be in the top 10 finals. Now I am sure he is cringing at my posting this info, because of his lack of ego, but I think it is something special, and all of Gear Page should know about it. And anyone in the Cleveland area should check this out.

Peace,
Duffy King

From Scott Jone's web page:
"Guitar Player magazine has launched it's own version of American Idol, called Guitar Hero and last year they asked for submissions from all over the world. I received a phone call on April 28th 2005, from the Managing Editor and Chief, saying that they were blown away by my track and I've made the FINAL 10! They will be flying me to Cleveland the weekend of June 10-12 to perform one song of my choice, with a live band at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, in front of judges Steve Lukather (Toto), Joe Satriani and others. It will be webcast all over the planet. And each of the 10 finalists will receive major press coverage in an upcoming issue of Guitar Player Magazine. From the GP site: “GP’s Guitar Hero 2005 is part of the CMJ/RockFest, which is being held all over Cleveland during the weekend of June 10-12. The winner of GP’s Guitar Hero will receive a mammoth gear package, as well as get one of their songs included on CMJ’s New Music Monthly CD that reaches tens of thousands of music business executives and tastemakers across North America. Guitar Hero 2005 is sponsored by Gibson and Audio-Technica.”

+1 Great playing and great band, Vlad. :AOK

Backing tracks are better than playing to a metronome, but there's nothing like a great live band.

eBay, that was sweet in a very spooky kinda way. Fantastic comping as well. I, for one, am really glad you posted!

[vladorg]

Thank you guys for all the nice words.You're way too kind!On a side note ScottL is right about what I use and I really don't want to brag about it but:#1.buying the THD 2X12" cab from our own Scott Peterson was one of the smartest things I've done in the past few years:D and #2.acquiring a Fuchs head and having it modded and tweaked by ScottL was the next best thing to having an amp custom-built for me(thanks again to Scott for being so kind)!I've never been happier with my gear especially now that I also have my new Suhr Classic!Oh and BTW,I'm not getting paid by any of the above manufacturers....uh,at least not yet,I hope:p Thanks again,everyone!
