Acoustic w/Strat written by a woman!

[Wattage]

Hah I raise the stakes Mr. Jolly. Not only am I showing a little Strat love but it's mostly acoustic and it is written by Patti Smith. It is a real rough demo I am doing of "Dancing Barefoot" for my band, hope you like it.

Hey Scott, You capatured a really cool 60's vibe on that one.
The Verb and Fuzz was right on the money. Did you use the
Lefty Strat too?

 

[Wattage]

Thanks Ken. Yeah that is "Lefty" going into a Boss Amp Factory with Recto setting mids and bottom dialed out to get the raspy 60's fuzz sound.

hehehe....raising the stakes eh?

Is that you singing? I like your voice. Cool song man. As kmc stated, you definitely nailed the 60's vibe. I had to run outside and look for some flowers to put in my hair.:9: I realize it's a rough demo, but it still sounded good. It'd be cool if you could throw some bongos and some sitar in there.

I reckon I'm gonna have to raise the stakes now and post my completely off the wall song.

 

[Wattage]

Well I hope they were dead flowers

Yeah that's all me. I have to try and get a sitar sound for that little lead part that would be great. There will be percussion on the final version maybe I can get Fonzie to play bongos.

Lets hear the off the wall one bro I love your stuff, as long as it's not disco, heehee!

Hey Scott -

You already know that I love Patti Smith. Hadn't heard this one in a really long time 'coz I don't have it on CD.

Funny that you really nailed the "Summer of Love" vibe even though Patti performed the tune at least a decade later. Cool, especially for a rough demo.

BTW what did you use for that wicked fuzz in the background?

[Wattage]

Ahh I was going more for "This Ain't the Summer of Love" but close enough I guess.

The fuzz is my Strat into the Boss Amp Factory with Recto (R-fier) setting mids and bottom dialed out - gain, treble and presence cranked w/4x10 speaker sim.

wow sounds great!

 

[Wattage]

Thank you very much!

Yes you got a good 60s sound here. The instruments compliment each other nicely and your voice really works the tune well.

I like that tune.. she was a true tough chick rocker..

 

[Wattage]

Thanks Steve. I think I played it too close to the original for what I am really looking for looking at it now so I am going to make some changes to it to see if I can make it more of a Nasty tune. I have a few other covers I am doing some fast rough one takes on, Mother of Pearl by Roxy is next if I can figure out a good way in to it.

Here's another rough one that I think came off with the right vibe. Forgive the drummer he only knows one beat:9:

Very kool Watts. I know I've heard that tune before...Because the Night is the only Patti tune I know which really rocks. Good job and just drop your action down real low...you'll be buzzin' and sitar'n big time. :13: I gotta figure out how to record stuff...Mac has a kool program called Garage Band. I'll put that on my long list...
