[Alan L Cole]

Thank a muchly....

Sweet!

 

[Alan L Cole]

Swinging!

 

[Alan L Cole]

Oh, I am wondering what people use to listen to the tracks here (headphones, speakers). I have found in the past that if I mix using headphones it sounds awefull thru speakers but if I mix using speakers it sounds great thru headphones.

If I use speakers I'll be run out of the house so it's strickly headphones for everything.

@Alan L Cole : aside from your guitar sound that I just love I really dig those "strange" notes that you play, especially the first ones to create a theme.
@fendrguitplayr : lovely opening; you are swinging! Oh, and that breakfast looks so tasty!
@SbS : like the rythmically used notes on the beginning and your bluesy playing.
@JCL50 : I am really not in the position to give you constructive hints how to play jazz, but it was a pleasure to listen to your track. I think you had some creative lines going.
@Mjark : use of delay is not to be exspected on a track like this, but it gives your playing an airy vibe. Some really nice jazzy lines, too.
@Gytaurust : you got me with that opening! Like the easiness of your playing.
@klasaine : opening sounds familiar, I love how you vary it then. There´s a beautiful frehness in your playing.

@[email protected] : you had your very own musical language here, out of the (jazz) box. To answer your questions: I always mix with the monitors, at least before finishing a track. Guitar and mix sound good.
@mixmkr 2023 : you sure had your fun with this! Reminds me in a way of Vanilla Fudge playing songs from other artists.
@KennyWTelejazz : hey, nice you dropped by again and brought that track with you! Just "wow".

Thanks, Mike:

Interesting outside playing Alan !
I remember going out in the 80's and seeing John Abercrombie a number of times in various clubs and settings .When he played guitar with Jack DeJohnette he sounded very much in the wheel house of what you are doing here ...Good to hear you again

oh what the hell....

Great! Jazz needs more of this approach.

 

[KennyWTelejazz]

Thx Mike!

I like how you found a pocket to explore melodic playing . You hit a lot of the right notes and I got the feeling you were getting comfortable in your solo telling a story
nice , shows a lot of potential

Dark morning, dark tone:

Hi Ullrich ! I like your ballsy tone on this . The notes on your 3 upper strings have a pleasing melodic type of tone that just jump out full of joy ...
I used to love listening to Blues Guitarist Son Seals . I'm hearing his type of sound and bending approach in your playing on this .

good one ,

Kenny

 

[KennyWTelejazz]

Thanks again Mellencaster.

Had just enough time to play today. I'm gonna go and hear some live music afternoon & evening with a friend, so will listen the tracks tomorrow.

Nice economy of notes ...Yeah you took your time and did a nice slow simmer up to slow burn .
Good approach and you sounded good ,

Kenny

 

[KennyWTelejazz]

Nice fluid lines and playing . I enjoyed what you did here !

[Mellencaster]

My title expresses what I felt playing on this track.

 

[Mellencaster]

@Alan L Cole - Dark and cool! The dissonant lines work well for the theme of your video it adds tension and chaos but in an orderly fashion.
@fendrguitplayr - Very nicely played . I felt the jazz/blues expressions in your version.
@udoering - There are sweet elements of jazz in your lines but the blues stood out in your track quite well .Lovely tone.
@SbS - I get a rhythm and blues Bill Haley vibe through listening to your version. Sweet tone and playing.
@JCL50 - Look at you play jazz blues you sound like a natural. Love the tone and the style of playing.
@Mjark - Sorry I missed out on your track.
@Gytaurust - Lovely, Craig. Sounds great.
@klasaine - Classic old school playing, Ken! Very enjoyable phrasing and playing.
@[email protected] - Sounds good all through your track . Nice one, Roger.
@mixmkr 2023 - Thinking outside the box goodness. Love the guitar playing and techno effects.
@KennyWTelejazz - Very nice one Kenny! Inspiring playing.
@TF from MN - I really enjoyed your version, classic jazz!

 

[udoering]

@TF from MN : very enjoyable jazz version!
@Mellencaster : take a blues guitar player, let him jam with a jazz rythm trio - that´s what you sound like. A very nice version, and, btw, a very nice guitar sound!
