Some Slide

[GREENMACHINE]

Hey guys,
When I was up in Auckland I had a slide lesson, so I thought I would make a backing track, do some lead guitar over the top then add some accompanying slide to it.

Anyway here is the link: http://www.box.net/shared/5qcukhfy77

Let me know what your thoughts are.

Many thanks,
Cav

GREEN; get rid of the lead and just play SLIDE over the backing track. To my ears, the lead and slide kept bumping into and interfering with each other. So, I couldn't get a sense of what you were doing SLIDE wise. What I did hear was OK but it's only several notes at a time. I'd like something (at least 4-8 bars) a bit more substantial. Sorry!!!!

Hey Pie,
Ok, I have done it with just a dirty lead without slide. I can't do much with the slide because I have only had 1 half hour lesson, but I will try and work some other slide things out to add to it.

Many thanks for your feedback,
Cav

My $.02, but just record something of what you can do now, just so that it's only SLIDE. After ONE lesson, you shouldn't be the reincarnation of Duane Allman. But, since you play a nice lead, you obviously know where the NOTES are and just SLIDE off of that knowledge.

When you do re-post a SLIDE clip, I'd like to know a few things. First, what tuning you are in? Secondly, if you are using a pick or bare fingers or a combination thereof. If you are using metal or plastic fingerpicks, I'd like to know that too!! Lastly, what kind of slide are you using?

Good luck GREEN
