Re: DI solo track -- Rainbow-inspired (clip inside)
Thanks for listening! When the synths are added it will flesh it out a bit more. Blackmore's style is so unique -- there are fast, classical inspired lines, Hendrix-y pentatonic lines and these random, Jimmy Page type of lines. That solo was 100% improvised and not comp'd. Just kept playing over and over until I had a take that was more 'right' than 'wrong. Keeping the extreme bending in key was a real challenge!
