Flank, to be honest, it's pretty damn good, but it lacks some "tightness" on the tempo. You guys should practice with a metronome "click" thru PA... it does wonder!! Try it!

Re: my band jammin to Soul Kitchen

hey thanks thames........ this was a kind of just loose practice with my drummers brother on keys........ we couldnt work on our originals with him so we just jammed to some songs he knew on the keys........and he just started playing soul kitchen, and the other 3 of us figured out the notes real quick and joined in.........

so its loose......but oh well, ill give the metronome thing a try possibly

Re: my band jammin to Soul Kitchen

I like the loose feel, don't ditch it right out, supertight is good for perfectionists, but the feel of going up and down in time is way underrated.
I played in a Gospelchoir, we tried to keep the time ultratight, our conductor hated it, play more loose he said, so we drifted some where it felt right, and got a nice pull and release feel to it, swing it!
Keep it up guys, sounds good.
