I love the take Andy James did over this backing so I thought I would do one myself. I'm about halfway done with it and I have been using it to try and get familiar with Logic so I can start doing some nice recordings for the collabs. Still working on it and I'll probably upload a final take when I finish it.

That was just great, Monte! I love the tapping part, it fits the backing so nicely! Well done. Thanks for sharing.

Very cool Monte. Tapping was spot on

Thanks Guys....I'll post the rest when I finish it. I am slow at composing stuff. I wish I could just come up with stuff on the spot like Muris, Emir and Pedja but it doesn't work that way for me.

Great solo!
Loved that Satriani-legato at 00:48:)

That was really tasty, and great flow.

Sounds great and you control the tone very good!

Awesome video Monte, really like your tone and playing

Thanks Everybody....really appreciate the feedback. I'll post the rest when I finish it. I have most of the rest finished but now I gotta practice it.....I can almost never play what I compose.

Great stuff man. Really like the vibe that's going on, I think my favorite playing by andy is over this track tbh.

And if you would, do you think you could post the backing track?

Posted by: lcsdds Jun 1 2009, 04:27 AM

Finished this up. Still need to clean it up and there are some timing issues but this is the best I can do at the moment...

Sounds really great Monte!

Your legato is smoother, AP is sounding very tight and your sweeps are spot on. It's nice to hear the progress your making bro!

Very nice upload!

Monte, you´re stunning me. I knew that you´re a great player, but THIS? This is so incredible. Amazing performance of a beautiful solo. Very well done!

Posted by: Pedja Simovic Jun 1 2009, 09:51 AM

Very nice solo Monte. This is the backing track you sent me, correct?

Thank you for the compliment Pedja. Yes....this is the Lydian backing that I sent you......Lydian does indeed ROCK!!!

You should indeed Tolek. I started learning that right before I found GMC. Your take on it reminded me how cool it was.....It is just SOOOO LOOOOOOONNG.......

Posted by: Velvet Roger Jun 1 2009, 12:02 PM

Truly great playing you got there Monte, great job!

Posted by: Tolek Jun 1 2009, 12:02 PM

So, if I post more videos, you´ll post more as well, ok? I wanna see more of your playing. Actually, I started this song some years ago, but never played it at full speed. After learning here at GMC, I was able to do it. Yeeha.
