damn Alex, that was really difficult! I could probably work on it for another week and still not be happy with it. Keith Richards has such a cool groove to his playing and I found it difficult to try and replicate.

Here's what I came up with -

I know I should have incorporated Arpegios and a some silence here and there.
Instead- included a few chords here and there.
Maybe it could do for the intro...
Anyhow,.. hope you like it.

Wow very cool technique you have been using! Did you do chicken picking??? Sounds very cool!

Posted by: JPBluestring Aug 10 2012, 10:55 PM

Glad you like it.
Usually I do finger picking - no pick
Less trouble with the recording studio.

Many thanks for your comments Alex.
I also liked the idea of trying to replicate the sound of Keith on this one.
I think all did well! Great Collab. (Of course the backing was A1!)

Thanks Alex.
