I have a little improvisation fun in this one. It was recorded last Saturday night at our CD release party.

That was very nice, with a few rough spots here and there (mostly in the transitions, and not in your own playing). Thanks for sharing! This sounds like the kind of band I like to listen to when I'm in a club.

Yeah, those rough spots would probably be less rough if we ever practiced the tunes the same way twice. That's the second gig(with us) for that drummer. I thought he did ok, considering.....

James,

What tuning were you using and what key?

The clear pseudo pedal steel licks are in a variation of E (E C# E G# B E, bass to treble) and the swelled atmospheric bits are done on a C6 (C E G A C E) neck.

I just listened to this again and realized how amateurish it sounds. Oh well, gotta start somewhere.

That looks like a variation of E6. Sure sounds nice!
