About Me

I've been out of the playing scene for about quite a few years. My wife got me a new guitar and I got a little interest again. Hopefully I'll remember how to play. I love the blues, I could just never make a living at it. This is my first blues album project. I'll be working with a favorite drummer and hope it will be completed by spring '09.These are scratchs tracks used to get the drums on and test some mic placements. Please don't laugh at the playing. The playing will hopefully get better. I used my 60th Anniversary Telecaster with Budz pickups newly installed and ran direct of of a Roland Micro Cube for some. Others are my Boogie with a Heil PR30 up close and my Red Type B at about 6 feet back. Everything is going thorugh a Great River ME-1NV preamp.Get MySpace Layouts from nUCLEArcENTURy .COM OR create your own using MySpace profile editor !!!
