I am working on "Last of the Mohicans" with Doug Beaumier on YouTube.
I am new to the steel so I can only work on one project per month. I
love this song and the way Doug plays it. |

| "Evening Sky", the guitar-bass-drums-pedal steel quartet I play in, is mixing and mastering a new album featuring Ralph Rosen, guest harmonica player. Interesting blends with harp and steel! |

Learning melodic and harmonic minor scales on E9.
And working in a new bass player for the mostly-originals band I play in, which will have no use for my more interesting (to me) project. |

Recently, I worked out a solo arrangement of the jazz standard, “When Sunny Gets Blue” on the E9th neck. Next, I’ll be working on the same tune on C6 and see which arrangement sticks to the wall. 🙂
Keep on pickin’
Glenn

Jim, you should post that tune for us. I’ve thought about doing a Beach Boys tune as some of the melodies are great.
Anyway, here’s one for me, although not beach boys.

A Hank Williams tribute band called The Lovesick Drifters. Playing the Gibson Console Grande. Learned those kickoffs and solos years ago, so it's fun to get to use them.

Looking for Bacharach stuff on E9 and painstakingly woodshedding on C6 in an effort to catch up with myself.
I neglected the back neck for too long. Now I really do have the time!

Jazz Blues.
My son (11 years old) is learning piano and delving into Jazz standards and even Bebop. He learns FASSSSST and he's on my heels.
I now dedicate myself to Blues, Jazz Blues and were working on the different typical forms (progressions... well, most are "just" quick-change Blues... with some trun-arounds in different versions).
He got into playing Blues Scale and like most, dead-ended himself into a rut of playing the one scale over all chords.... "saying" nothing. Fake Blues.
So, we're woking on playing thru the chord-CHANGES and voice leading using solos for sax and piano players and having him tear them into segments and place and modulate them all over the tune.
It's starting to sound an awful lot like you "came to DUKE'S PLACE!" 'round here.
We're traveling to Manhattan NYC for 4 nights on Dec. 3rd... would love to hear some Jazz and Bebop.
Btw... he got a "phone number":
736-2514 
the Diatonic movements in 4ths. I got his head spinning and mine... DON'T ask!
For me, it's been a TriTone Boot Camp.
I've re-setup my two Excel Superb S12's C6th PSGs. I now have a D and a C on the bottom. A D and B on top. 6 pedals/8 levers... non-universal (no AB pedal sounds build in on purpose).
Busy!... J-D.

Posted 28 Nov 2022 7:43 pm Just for something to do...a project
|
|
| A speaker testing console; one that would let me instantly switch speakers or amps. It will have a matching transformer, impedance switching, multiple inputs for an amplifier and/or a waveform generator, and multiple outputs for speakers and an oscilloscope, and/or a spectrum analyzer. I'm just interested in comparing how different speakers sound and respond, and how that relates to their published curves or manufacturer's specs. |
