I have to admit I’m quickly becoming a fan of this one…LOL…Glad the tune reminds you of somebody, anybody…the rhythm part went from this jangly funk chord riffing to a single note line I hit working out the solo…definitely gives it a lot more space

Here is a tune we recorded with my old band in 2003 before our singer passed away. This was never mastered but I thought I would share it with you since Labor day was the anniversary of the recording. This was the first time I ever played bass literally in the studio our bassist quit and then waited 17 years to play the bass again lol

Here is another one of our original songs left un-mastered from our 2003 demo. We chose to leave these songs un-mastered because they were the last recordings of our singer Sean Newman before he passed away.

Seriously, really tight and well mixed for unmastered demos, and you guys were clearly great together. Especially considering you had literally just picked up the bass, lol.

@howard We literally started playing in a band when we were Ten years old and Sean passed when he was 27 so we had grown musically over those years. The bass lines literally were root notes mainly on those songs. I remember playing with a pick and was concerned about attacking the strings to hard lol

Well played! Not my type of music, but nicely done!
And… apparently it is easy to replace a bass player
