MORE Grover Washington pillage: Mr Magic!

[Red Ant]

Mr. Magic Backing Track

My Take

 

[John Ziegler]

nice Cm11 | F7 vamp.

although, it's interesting that you chose to play in C# over this progression.
is it because of the discrepancy with tuning to the original track?

oh well, i'm probably just going deaf...hell, i know i am.

rock on!

It sounded to me like the Bass was in C# and the rhodes was closer to C, and I always go with the bass. I might be tone-deaf today though - i have days like that

I'm not sure about the tuning either but I wil definitely steal some licks from you on this tune.

Nice feel and ideas! Can hear your jazz influences for sure.

I LOVED Grovers version of "Take 5" as well. What a great tune.

I am going to steal this backing and give it a whirl too. Thanks for posting it!

Thanks!! I can't wait to hear yours! Man is it fun to jam with Andy Newmark & Phil Upchurch

Very cool backing, Ant. I thought your approach was pretty cool, but I create enough tension with my clams that I figured C# might be a bad idea for me.

Excellent Ed! Loved the beginning section. Nice and dynamic. Then the fury! Some really killer bits in there.

Ed,

I liked how you started off tenderly and then built up into a frenetic maelstrom..

I did this at 7:30 this morning.... Bathrobe and all.

I had time for one take so be gentle.

Nice creative playing Scotch! Way to avoid the cliches which is hard to do in that type of vamp. (I would be playing every one known to mankind. )

Why does the thought of that sight make me feel nauseous?
