Well, time got away from me the last week and I never got the rotation restarted with a PM, so you are stuck with one more pick from me.
Sus chords needed to resolve until April of 1965.

Cool!

Cool!
An excellent Jeff choice.
A piece that is a test of who is practicing musical scales here in good way.
At the same time, it is a great exercise for everyone.Last edited by kris; 10-08-2021 at 02:19 AM.

My fingers aren't fast enough to play this slowly!

Wzpgsr, nice take! Reay taking your time and developing things.
Kris, great stuff and very cool track too...you build really nice melodies that compliment the faster bits, and I hear a welcome hint of blues too.

I don't want to be a party pooper but, really, I've no idea what this is about. I'm fairly sure it's not about anything. To my mind it's just mindless noodling. What's it supposed to do? Create a mood? Good songs create a mood, can't help it. This isn't that, this is just some sort of endless hypnotic thing without point, to me at least.
Anyway, I'm supposed to do it so here it is.

I knew you'd love another modal tune, Rag
You don't sound half bad on it. Be sure to check out the original...its fantastic.
Dogletnoir, I keep losing the "1" but there's a vibe there i like. I'd like to hear what you sound like on it now...5 years is a long time...and I think you're one of those lucky sorts who sounds better than they did 5 years ago

Good ideas with only two guitars.

Building a solo in a modal tune is a very big challenge.
It is not just about using the right scales.

This is worth listening to:

There is my second take.I used my Telecaster for recording.
I've been trying to make some music out of these four brilliant chords, and I like this tune by Herbie Hancock.

I thought very carefully before posting my comment. I can't be the only one who finds it repetitive and hypnotic. I'm not very good at all that.
Actually, I'm inclined to launch (no pun intended) into a spiel about meaningfulness. If you've got a really nice tune (lots of them around) then it's a question of doing it justice and enhancing it with your solo. Then it's a question of aesthetics, whether it's skilfully done, and so on.
But when there's no real head or form to hang onto then it's a question of every man for himself. Then it tends to become comparative and competitive. The tune is forgotten and it's a challenge to see who's best, etc. I've never thought that was the point about art and music, personally.
But I ramble, sorry.

I think this has merit. No question.

The guitar was in concert tuning, iirc... but it was five years ago, so it might not have been.
