Tomo's "Right Place, Right Time"

[mojazzmo]

I know there probably have been past posts on this but I just wanted to show some appreciation for Tomo and this killer cd. I am just really diggin' the funked up jazz blues fusion. Tomo, if you read this - what was your set for your lead tone on Catty Woman? Also, what is your best instructional dvd for that lead style on the same tune? Everyone who digs hip jazz influenced funk-blues-rock should buy this cd and encourage Tomo to record more!!! Thanks again for the great music Tomo. :RoCkIn

Funny you posted this - I was just listening to the clips on Amazon and think this one is even better than 'Put On Your Funk Face!"

This is exactly what I look for in an instrumental guitar release - killer tunes, tones and a sense of fun in the band.

Tomo, what else you got up your sleeve in 2009?

No one does a better version of "Twinkle Twinkle" than Tomo!

Both of Tomo's solo albums are great. You should pick up the live dvd, it's killer~!

Thank you so much for your kind words. I really appreciate it.

For Catty Woman solo or Melody? Mostly my SRV Strat... solo toward end was '67 ES335 's rear pickup. Overdrive tone was my Fuchs 50 ODS (modified by Jim Salman.. so not stock Fuchs 50 ODS) and Bob Burt V front cab with Eminence Tonespotters or Tonespotter & Wizard.

For soloing (my dvd), you want to check out... my More AYGP dvd and
Tone Merchant Clinic dvd.

Catty Woman- Originally I had a different melody (smooth and happy!) ,, but my manager asked me more "anger and stress" so I chose that 1/2 W 1/2 W
scale to make that melody!

Thank you.

Thank you so much! I am glad that you liked it.

I am working on my new cd... a few more songs to record. Everyone (musicians, studio...) is busy so I am waiting for right time to do.

So far, 6 tunes.. 8 tracks (include 2 alternate takes)...
Steve Gadd, Will Lee and Bernard Purdie & Will Lee...
Then I will have another my favorite drummer & Will Lee...

possible.... Lenny Picket on Sax...

Thanks for asking!

Thanks for your kind words! I was just using that song for reviewing and applying some triad ideas.

Thanks,

Thanks for asking. Actually I don't know. Let me google to find out.
Amazon or guitar9 is good place to buy.

I was wrong! For Catty Woman- Melody part was my Fuchs 50 ODS's with my SRV strat. And solo part- first part.. SRV strat & CJOD. Then ending solo-'67 ES335 & CJOD.

I am gonna record a few more tunes this month for my upcoming CD.
