May Fix it - Blues in E

[Steve_Whant]

Matt Schofield track - Blues in E. I recorded this at 90% and mixed at 100%. I still have some sections not under my fingers but I do get the shape & feel of the track now. I will post the best version of this before the 30th for Griff's input but this is the first version. I am doing some cuts at 80% and some at 100%.

Good stuff Steve! Got my foot tappin

Very good. Like the gtr tone, it's tough to solo for four minutes.

I just thanked PapaRaptor for putting your fix it *after* mine.

You have the Schofield thing going on pretty dang good! Tone, licks, swing, etc. Are you reading from a note-for-note source, or working out those licks on your own?

Excellent work there, Steve! Can't imagine how much better you can make it!

Run out of time and may not get back to the guitar before the session on Monday so this may be as good as it gets at full speed (105 bpm)

I miss several bits - i know where those are
I get some timing wrong - I mostly know where that is
I miss the change of pickup mid-track - it throws me every time I try to do it - so I don't actually have the control i need at this speed to do that
Completely fluff the ending - not got that sorted yet even at slower speeds

What I think I do get is the 'feel' of the track

So much to get fixed!!

Terrific stuff Steve! The ending didn't sound like it had any problems to me

Just listened to your entire track. I think you have nailed it!
I just overlayed the MS lead guitar track over yours. I doubt Matt Schofield could play it any closer than you did if he did it again. The (very few) areas where you deviated from his original were still melodic and well within the feel of the track! This has been a joy to follow as you've worked on this during the month.

Thanks Lloyd - i am really pleased to have found this stuff from Matt Schofield. Next month: Boogaloogaloo - completely different feel and fretboard work. Started with the listening part - this will be really tough though. Looking forward to hearing what Griff thinks of this and of course his suggestions for any fixes.

Too kind Jack - problem is I know what it is supposed to be. Moving on to new stuff soon though....
