Currently

Im working on a few albums for friends (folk, some metal, and some rnb type stuff) and also one for my band which is classic rock.
 
Just posted what I was working on. I am still looking for something to do without access to a guitar, studio or anything else. I guess I could remix some old tunes again, but how many times can you do that before you go nuts?

I guess I'll go out and find a good vocal coach...
 
Been working one new tunes with my band, got a new keyboardist\classical pianist.
wich should make it intresting as progress.

the plan is to get lock ourselves into a room for a week and see what we get recorded:D

we plan to do this in january, I`m allready planning the sandwich list of equipment.

sutch as a Premier kit from 1969, 75 Jazzbass, 70`s fender, Neuman U87:cool: (gotta nail those vox now:D) Several pre`s ranging from Universal audio to TL-audio.
Dyna audio Ba6 for monitors, the list goes on.
its nice having rich friends:D:D:D

the only thing we need now, is the members of Yes playing all the parts:D:D
 
Cool thread! :)

I just started working with a guy who has a whole catalog of great stuff in his head but nothing on tape or disc... His wife bought him studio time for his birthday and we're now coaxing a lot of awesome music out of him for his first CD...

I'm also doing some collab work for a guitar player up in the Puget Sound area of Washington... Great player whom I've worked with on and off through the years.

Just found out another jazzy christmas collab I did last year got picked up for a holiday release in Poland... That's kinda cool :)


The band is also working up some new stuff to start on the next CD, and I'm pulling a lot of my old personal stuff out of the drawer to listen to again with a fresh set of ears... Maybe I'll finally start finishing some of em

;)

WOW!

If you've only been picking on a mando for a year I'd say you're doing great things with it!

Sounds like a terrific find, is it an 'A' or an 'F' style mando? The song reminds me of a foreign movie soundtrack-very nice melodies.

Work has kept me quite busy, though I have recorded a few colabs. I played some guitar and mandolin parts on Rokket's With you tonight song-the acoustic version. I'm also working on a blues song with Chili-jamming on my electric stuff, and looking forward to re-doing some older song from the 4 track cassette days, digging into the old archives-when I can find a few free hours away from the daily madness of my day job....:mad:

Hey Tony!

Post a short example of your progress with that project.

That's what the thread is about.

Thanks for the kudos...I am styling my mando playing after one of my favorite artists....DTB....:cool:

it's an A style...here's a pic of my $54 mando....:rolleyes:
No day job for me man...I have been laid off since March....
I have kept busy with a classic rock cover band and an originals project....
www.analogtheband.com
I am playing bass for both....
I have collabed a lot in the past with Dispelled Myths, Jwoo, DRMSCP, DTB,Steev, Bluesmeister, several with David K and many, many more...but have nothing on my plate at the moment....

Okay, here is a short clip from the blues song-I added the guitar solos-this is an Epi Sheraton and Epi Les Paul Standard...the entire song is about 11 minutes long.

Say a Prayer-

We recorded some old time-Civil War era songs-with my acoustic band 'Banjovi'-for a video to be released sometime in the future. Here are a few instrumentals, I played mandolin-banjo, fiddle, and guitar are also in the mix.
These are rough mixes-basically 1 take for each-we may retrack some later~:confused:

Awesome idea. Good way to get a kid into learning songwriting, etc. Instead of sitting them down and making them do something that feels like "homework".
 
Right now I'm working in a couple of originals that I had them laying around. I'm trying to maybe complete a CD out of them. Xeries and Greg L have been more than helpful in contributing a couple of tracks for them. I'm currently looking for someone who can help me with some piano and maybe a simple string arrangement parts. Anyone? :)
