Here's a jazz fusion tune I just composed...

Like this one a lot. Subversive is a good way to describe it, particularly the oily main riff. The guitar playing kicks, as usual. Thanks for sharing this.

Sounds like something I would expect from Herbie Hancock in the beginning. Then the unmistakeable Frank guitar kicks in. Crazy, but in a good way.

Groovy! I dig it, Frank.

Thanks so much...the groove is based on an altered dom7th vamp. I played the ostinato riff and the solo using my '83 strat with '68 Fender strat pickups into a Fulltone Ultimate Octave into a Marshall Silver Jubilee and vintage Marshall 4x12. The melody is based on the super locrian mode and diminished half /whole scale and was done by layering synth patches in Logic Pro. I also processed my vocal track with Logic Pro's vocoder. The recording was mixed using Logic Pro 7. Thanks again...
