Join in with something that's already going on, or start something new.
On this one I played along to a 12 bar Blues backing track that Mark had put on.
It would be great if others could add some tracks, maybe some bass and a beat, then we could take the backing track away! (It's too smooth and perfect for my liking!)
Go here to download the backing track and see how to do it.

The video shows the set up when I recorded my track...then there's a little tour showing a few rooms in my house and how Cigar Box Guitars, amps and other music related stuff are taking over!!
Thanks to Mark Bliss for breathing new life into the CB Nation Recording Studio group!!!

Comment by Roadkill a.k.a. John Maw on February 11, 2012 at 5:59am: Sounds really good. Interesting project that group has spawned.

Comment by Uncle John on February 11, 2012 at 4:46am: Thanks, but my harp playing is not good enough for this. But I would like to sit by that inviting wood stove and play some quiet riffs with Be and the rest.

Comment by bemuzic on February 11, 2012 at 4:14am: ha thanks Mark glad you enjoyed it!..yeah I've hinted to Uncle J as well : -)

Comment by Mark Bliss on February 11, 2012 at 4:08am: I am grinning so hard it hurts and have teared up eyes, that was so cool! Great tour and a great invitation Belinda!

It hasnt gone unnoticed that the membership number of the recording group has taken a big leap this last week. Someone is at least watching our developements and experiments. But this is an attempt to encourage PARTICIPATION and share information, so please, come on and check it out!

And Uncle John, I am calling you out brother! Record some harp riffs or something and post them in the thread, by whatever means necessary. I will make something work with them!

Comment by bemuzic on February 11, 2012 at 4:06am: thanks Wes, yep it's growing...there are more in other rooms!

Uncle J glad you had a good time with it : -)

thanks Keith

Comment by Uncle John on February 11, 2012 at 3:10am: Holey Buckets! Got my fave GDG git out and tried to apply what I have learned from John McNair's teaching DVD. Big :) that was fun and I am coming back for more.

Comment by Uncle John on February 11, 2012 at 3:04am: Had me swaying side to side and grooving. :) Liked the video part too and seeing your amp settings and gear. I got out my C harp and tried to jam along. I should save this for harp practice.

Comment by bemuzic on February 11, 2012 at 12:38am: thanks all, John if you go to the link under the video (the second one) you can download the track (free)

The track is called 12_bar_blues.mp3 Just right click and do "save target as" to save it to your computer...my track is there too a bit further down and you can do the same with that, then have a play around and add to it if you like : -)
