Brand new original !! Sparkle Motion

Re: Brand new original !! Sparkle Motion

I was bored and watched an infomercial on Time/Life collection of Soul artists on CD's. Your wah is up there with the best of them in that era! Nice tone and I seem to hear some Paul Gilbert / Joe Satriani in the phrasing somehow, not obvious, but very subtle.

What wah are you using on that? (great song, btw)


Thanks man!!

I am useing an old Crybaby ( the basic one). Early 90s is my guess, I remember I played through several to find the one I liked. They all sound different and this one had the best sweep and warmest response.

Thanks for the wah words. Really appreciate the comment. I worked pretty hard at it, I found if I slowed my sweeps with it is made for a more melodic response. Clean funk helped me out a bunch as I stopped just going wah wah wah on the beat. When I first got the pedal I was god awful on it, it was pretty funny. Losing the beat, the whole deal..... I love it now and wish I had gotten one years before.

I don't know any Paul Gilbert but Satch had my ears for a few years. Jimi off of Cry of Love and Trower were big on the actual appraoc to the tune.

I just listened to it a coupla more times. You got serious Wah-skills! :saeek: :saeek: :saeek:


Wah you talkin about Willis? ( Old TV show, lame attempt at humour.... :smack: ) Gotta love da Wah and all the responsibility that comes with it :saeek:

Mr Distortion, that is by far the freakiest Avatar I have ever seen!! Unholy while not necessarily a goal of mine, is definately appreciated!! :newangel:

Jolly, as always thanks for the ears!!
 
Re: Brand new original !! Sparkle Motion

great stuff, man..has a nice SRV quality too it..great tone and playing..

I've been away from the site for awhile but it's nice to come back and hear some great recordings like this upon my return!
 
Re: Brand new original !! Sparkle Motion

NIce Kevlar, I had to check your age, we are similar in that department and I can hear the old school influences and love it - I'd be interested in a CD as well - by the way there is a girl that take flute lessons at the music store I work at who is quite an artist - if you are interested I could ask her to rough a couple of ideas for your cd cover if you havn't found anyone ... Peace

Thanks for checking it out!

SRV is a bit humbling, I wish I was as refined as him. Thank you for the comparison.

Welcome back.

Man, remember when our old school tastes were cutting edge? :smack: God life moves quick. Jack Butler changed it all. :rolleyes:

That is a very generous offer on your flute playing comrade, I think ( hope) I have someone in line but if not I may just take you up on the offer. The thought is much appreciated.

Hey Kev,

Great stuff man! Very tight, yet organic.
Can't wait for the CD. You ROCK, bro.

Peace,

Darrin
