Just wanna say:

100th reply in the topic

Thanks for the participation so far. I like how active you have all been. It's so great to see!

Sorry for the delay on the last couple of posts. Weekend and life just got in the way a bit

Thanks a lot Todd! I found that little gem while jamming a bit. Took a few goes at it to kinda make it fit.

If you still need the bass < i will do that.. Just the sections as called out in the tab. I have actually been playing alot of bass trying to get those iron maiden triplets using fingers



Sounds like someone did the bass since then.. no worries

Gives it a bit of a neoclassical vibe which I always like

Time runs fast here in December. Gonna catch up now, I hope!



Thanks for this, Degroot! I've downloaded them and will put them into a folder where I'm collecting all the takes

For jstcrsn

Thanks for showing interest in joining here I don't think Sensible has has recorded bass yet, but I'm not sure. Maybe he can let us know.



Calling Doctor Sensible Jones

Have you recorded bass yet? You talked about it way in the beginning. There's no deadline so no worries if you haven't gotten around to it



I agree. They can be cool

About pedal tones





For Tflava





For Jim S

Good stuff, Jim!





For Claudio

Nice playing, Claudio! Getting better and better



------------------------

I hope I remembered all of you. Great work so far!

It's the approach I take too sometimes - jamming to find something cool, and other times I'll hear something in my head and try to get that working with the chords. Well done, Jim! Video comment is above



I agree! Good job, MisterM! And the nice words from earlier still stick to my memory, MisterM. I even told a few people cause the words made me really happy!

Thanks a lot Ben.
I will try to use some of the things you said.
Maybe i will try to come up with something with my keyboard instead of the guitar
And i will try some things out with my voice.
Keep you updated mate

Do you also have a version witj your voice in it so i can try to harmonie some words with my voice?

I'm working on the solo sections this week

Cael! I’m really impressive you take thoughtful care in your videos. It’s spot on advice and your criticism is very appreciated. I liked your tone in the video and it reminded me of the intro riff of “Red House.” I’m gonna play around with each line and think about how it fits over the chord.

Hearing you play with my take gave me the idea of some harmonized parts… the pedal tone lick could use a better ending and maybe a dual guitar harmony can get me there…

That's great, Tim! I have this for a temporary chorus, but I can't guarantee it 100% stays this way, but maybe your ideas will inspire me too

All of the takes and ideas in the collab I think has changed what little idea I had about how this could turn out.

Here are 3 chorus variations, but remember that these were all just done when we started talking about this collaboration

 Lonesome_Cowboy_Chorus_1_with_vocals.mp3 ( 1.73MB ) Number of downloads: 35

 Lonesome_Cowboy_Chorus_3__double__with_Vocals.mp3 ( 2.48MB ) Number of downloads: 43





I'm looking forward to hearing it!



I'm learning just as much as I hope I can "give" to you guys. It makes me train my ear a bit, communication skills and everything - and just seeing the activity in the thread is worth any effort I have put in so far. Your kind words mean a lot to me!

Some harmony on the pedal tone could be interesting for sure! If you record a dual guitar harmony part as a "final take", can you send me the harmony files seperately as two takes - main in one and harmony in the other file? I think that will give more options in the mix of final version when we get there, but take your time with it all. I am enjoying everything so far and as long as we all feel we're getting something out of it, I don't think it's necesary to place a deadline just yet

Hi Cael, I made a video for the solo part. If you'd like anything else from me then just let me know!

Nice! Thanks for the video! I'll get thinking about other parts and get back to you

All three are amazing Cael 🤩 You get such a cool Knopfler vibe here. My fav is probably the last one - but it's a tough choice 👌

Knopfler was an inspiration for sure. It's not a style I usually do, but I grew up with my dad listening to Dire Straits and Mark Knopfler, and I really like his voice. My plan is to use all 3 - like a development, even in the chorus, but still using the same phrasing and some repeating sentences at the end of the chorus. "This is where I belong, this is my home" while the first two lines can alter.

I'm also thinking a bit about some vocal verse parts. I think that would complete a more song like structure.

Will have the Bass recordings finished and posted this weekend Cael!! Unfortunately Real life has gotten in the way a bit recently!!

All good, take your time Real life seems to get in the way for me too at times, even when I think I'll have time

Here's my chorus part instrument only,

The cold weather means I'm tuning 10 strings and at least 5 changers to work on the other parts and some evening the motivation just isn't there to get that done to work on the other parts but I will!

Awesome! I'm gonna look at what we have so far tonight or at least over the weekend.

Hi Cael,

I did a couple of changes, mostly I have tried to repeat the initial lick toward the end as you suggested, I think it works. Other than that it is similar to previous version.

recorded little video (can add the audio files if you like it)

cheers

Cool stuff!! I dig that guitar as well!!
