Re: The Dead Bird (a mournful blues)
Excellent stuff. Well done VB (& Sandra). I was going to say, " watch out Mr. Rea", but Weelie beat me to it. I, for one, love the tone!!!!

Re: The guitar question I hate asking
Welcome! The best parlour guitar I've played for a long time is the YARI. This might be marketed as ALHAMBRA??? in the States. Good hunting.

Well done Hans. Hey, wouldn't it be good if you got sponsorship from Tokai?

Re: Help! Bad GAS attack!
I agree with 12bar about the Champ 600. It's a lovely 'clean' amp just made for strats and teles. It hardly overdrives, but sounds great with a BD2 and my old (and cheap) Zoom 505. It is plenty loud enough for practice with friends,but for small gigs I'd go for a 15 watt valve/tube amp. Good hunting...

Which type of guitar backing?
I recently posted Duane Allman's version of 'Goin' Down Slow' on 'Favourite Slow Blues. The backing on it is piano, bass and drums. I'd like to play my version with a guitar backing for the piano.(not just the 'chunk, chunk') I'd like to know what kind of thing you think would sound good. Electric o...

Re: "My Life"
I hear the Blues in it Viking. But from now on, I'm going to call you Viking "CARLOS" Blues. I really hear the great Santana in your composition. Well done!

Re: PC recording
Tried looper with just guitar lead direct into laptop. TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE!! But, I've spent a lot of sweat in the garden recently, so I rewarded myself with a Behringer Guitarlink UCG 102, which includes ENERGY XT2 & NATIVE INSTRUMENTS GUITAR COMBOS. This means I will be studying instead of po...

Re: Welcome
Hey HBL! We need a 'Tongue in Cheek' Smilie, so that I can use it when not being serious!!
Hope that Carpol Tunnel thing is improving by the way. I love your "will be assimmilated" bit !!

Re: Welcome
WHY is everyone bar Neil and myself, obsessed with their 'mail count'. Who cares how many you've sent? Is it a competition? In that case this should be the subject of our first poll!! If it's that much of a thing, you can always check in the archives.

PC recording
I have wanted to post to The Blues Room for a long time, but not had the 'computer' confidence. I have recently followed Gerd's instructions for home recording (the BASIC bit!), but would like, for posting purposes, to get a better sound. Is it possible to transfer a track from my Boss looper onto M...
