    Suicide

    Cheery song for a cheery bunch of touchy feely guys.. Drug addicted gurls are really coool. They usually die young, or worse old, ugly, and burnt out, then they leave us feeling sad...Here's to the young ones I never got to sleep with.. http://www.box.net/shared/0xazho68xx

    Top 15 Most Influential Guitarists

    Back to Metheney and company.... Howdy! To me, Pat Metheney, Lee Ritenour, and to some degree Larry Carlton and Wes Montgomery made me realize that there is melody that we don't get to hear by typical rock players. I can't play any of there tunes, although I scoot around on Montgomery a...

    A Cry For Peace

    Cool and mellow! Howdy Frank! This is a beautiful work! I heard so many things I have to list them. A bit of Hendrix and "All along the Watchtower" I kept waiting for that reverse lick.... Al Dimeola in the acoustic beginning....and the blues were just outstanding. I love the fact that you...

    My Rivera/Vox/Zendrive clips here!!

    Love the crunch! Howdy radioboy! Fantastic sounding setups and guitar! If its coming across on a camcorder mic, it's doing great! You sound like you are way into customizing with tubes, pedals, high end amps, and fantastic guitars. I'll just go back to my Fender Hot Rod and PodXT and dream a...

    sorry for the long absense, but here is my demo

    Great Songs! Howdy Tomas! I really like Craters. The upward progression in the chorus is unexpected and cool! "Right for You" lyrics are quite good. Very insightful, and thoughtful. Your production values are excellent. Nice sounding everything! I really like the high harmonies. Keep up...

    Andy Timmons

    more than excellent Thanks for posting this! What a beautiful piece. I am impressed with the subtlety of what he is doing. I am sure the equipment is fine. However, the ability of Andy to use dynamics, tone, and phrasing so seamlessly, is what sets this apart. Thanks again!! I will have to...

    Cool Cat Distortion video demo

    Nice setup! Howdy Robert! I really like your amp and pedals. You have some pretty decent rock chops there. Only a fretter could be totally entertained for 12 minutes, and I was! blessings, Johnboy

    Enough of the solo jazz...time to crank up the JMP

    Great lifestyle tune! This reminds me of what life might be like for you down in Florida. I really like the break at around 3:10. Great change in groove. The words are strong and flexible. They allow the listener to interpret. Has an Alan Parsons Project feel and sound. Very retro, very cool...

    Inside You ( Guitar Rock)

    Thank you! It is just plain cool to have such a bunch of talented guys appreciate what you do! This is Pro Tools LE. Just a nice G5, and a fantastic producer. Larry Pester is my guy. He helps me get what I hear and he hears out of the songs. I am so fortunate. I write and record acoustic and...

    "Alternative Pop"

    Cool Tune! Howdy Suhnton! I listened to this yesterday and again today. I have to tell you I would like to hear more of what you write! The bass part was very nice! Way to go Spudman! You have great potential. This reminds me just a little of L'Arc-en-Ciel. It sounds like you wrote a song...

    Jam with Gearbox

    Nice work! Howdy M29! This was very good playing. I love your sound, and I really like the sublety of your playing. With this type of rock progression. it is easy to make it an exercise in 64th notes. You can hear and play nicely and melodically with the changes! Johnboy

    Big Band loose era type piece

    great piece! Hi Maxwell! I think you have done a great job! I love the play in the title and lyrics. It sounds like it is basically an instrumental with incidental lyrics. I couldn't tell you how to play better woodwinds, I know that they are excellent. I think the only potential area I could...

    Almost reggae

    Nice groove maxwell! I really like the words and the groove! Very nice guitar sound. The flute was a great edition. The break was very cool. Great laid back solo, and appropriate for this nice easy going song. I think the combo of instruments and the voice of the singer was perfect. Rock...

    Art and Lutherie AMI

    Nice sound! Howdy Algonquin! Really nice fuzzy wood sound! Art and Lutherie is a great inexpensive guitar, maybe the best sounding for the money. The cedar top smells great, and sounds even better. These are virtually a Seagull guitar, same company, same Canadian selectivity about properly...

    Little Lost Angel

    Little Lost Angel redux Howdy Helloit! Thank you so much for the compliment! I hear you when it comes to country. I am the writer. An interesting side note.... I tried to country this up a bit by slowing it down to line dancing tempo. (Somewhere between 101 to 105 bpm.) It was really more of...
