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 - With Backing - http://soundcloud.com/bleez666/keef-collab Just geetar - http://soundcloud.com/bleez666/guitar-only -------------------- I might not be a rocket scientist but I know how to rock it |

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. JPBluestring http://soundcloud.com/jpbluestring/krcollab-jpb-lead-only">http://soundcloud.com/jpbluestring/krcollab-jpb-01 http://soundcloud.com/jpbluestring/krcollab-jpb-lead-only |

You guys did a great job! http://soundcloud.com/alex-feather-akimov/keith-richards-style-collab-1 First solo is played by JPBluestring You did a great job I loved your tone and notes choices! You did a few takes and I am glad you took time to get it to sound perfect! Also very cool intro! Second solo is played by vonhotch Great paying very nice and melodic! Nice combinations of scales and pentatonics! Liked it a lot! Third solo is played by Bleez I was very impressed with your sound you matched Keith Richards very very well and got this punchy telecaster tone that fits the track very well! Liked your melodies and ideas! Keep it up! Looking forward to hear more takes and solos from you guys!

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. JPBluestring |
