So, A Buddy Of Mine Wants Me To Play On A Song Of His

Well, actually, that's a lie. I want to play on a buddy of mine's song. He posted a video of on Facebook the other day laying down his solo. It was just a quick 20 second (or however long) snippet, but I could just hear something in the song that I loved. I called him up the next day and asked him to send me the entire song.

Now, Vern isn't a singer, a lead player, or whatever, (but he is great at what he does). I've always enjoyed the music he's written. 95% of the stuff he's written is just hard, heavy, groove, killer stuff....but he's just a country boy like me, and will write whatever pops in his head, and he does it very well.

So, anyways...I freakin love this song, and I want to put my two cents of guitar work in it, and also help him with the mix and stuff. I've been playing along to it for the past two days, and I think it's going to sound really really good when it's all said and done. Believe it or not, I am totally going to abuse the Floyd Rose in it. I also have a few different lead fills that I've come up with.

I'm supposed to go out there in the deep country tomorrow and do my thang. I am sooooooo looking forward to it.

Hopefully I will be back tomorrow with a different mix with me playing on it.:)

Just a solo in the middle of the song or lead bits all the way through?

Will check this out after work. Man, youve always been a bad a$$ player, but pretty much an LP guy.. Its really cool to see how you've gotten attached to the Charvels so Im excited to see where those take you... Fear not the Floyd....Embrace the the Floyd... May the Floyd be with you.....

Just a moment. In my time zone, it is around midnight, just turning into Saturday 26th. In TN, it must be early Friday evening.

:fest7: :beerchug: :friday:

I am on my way home right now from the country. I should be home in about 20 minutes. I will post the new version of the song as soon as I get home

Gonna upload my version here in a sec...I hope.
 
Re: So, A Buddy Of Mine Wants Me To Play On A Song Of His

Compare that to the original and let me know what you think......please. We got in an argument because I made sure he kept his original solo in it. There was no way in hell I was going to steal his thunder.

Sounds reminiscent of The Damned with somebody guesting on stunt guitar. All that is missing to complete this illusion is a cheesy Farfisa organ part.

Dude, nice work. Wish I could jam with you all some time.
 
Re: So, A Buddy Of Mine Wants Me To Play On A Song Of His

I', pretty proud of it.......actually. It's nothing special, but I think he wrote a good song, and I just farted around on it, and it turned out well.
 
Re: So, A Buddy Of Mine Wants Me To Play On A Song Of His

Dude, nice work, too bad for me that you are on the other side of the country. I'd love to provide a bass line.
