Re: Cold Call blues
Amazing! This is 'The Blues' as its supposed to be ... every single note and (just as importantly) even the spaces, convey the right amount of tension, surprise and attention-grabbing variation across the verses to make it so. All the messages are there. If, one day, I could get do something even half as good ... I'd be a real happy bunny! Wake-up call listening to this one, thanks.

Re: Cold Call blues
I always found this BT very hard to play with, it's really really slow, but you put just the right amount of energy into it. 335 + BJ + smart bends: perfect!

Re: Cold Call blues
Stunning what can be done with apparently so little to build on!
Absolutely - so well put. Though I'll take your "half as well" and raise it to a quarter as well!losaavedra wrote:Amazing!

Yes - a horribly difficult BT to use as so little happens on it. So 100% of the onus on creating interest lands on the guitarist - and finds most of us wanting - or in my case finds me wanting another backing track. In this case though the onus lands on the right guitarist and is a great success.12bar wrote:I always found this BT very hard to play with, it's really really slow, but you put just the right amount of energy into it. 335 + BJ + smart bends: perfect!

Re: Cold Call blues
Right now I feel like something a little faster songs but still feel that you have done well with getting to the solo, as usual. You have a lot of blues in your blood, you. Natural Talent I firmly believe.

Re: Cold Call blues
Sweet! This sounds like a pretty tough BT to play to. Makes the guitar step up. Nice job on this one.
