  • Steely Dan - backing track and solo

    Peg! The solo that Carlton and about 1/2 dozen of the LA session guys at the time tried... Jay Graydon ended up nailing it. Here's my version first... I ripped the studio version off a bit, but haven't heard it in a few years, so what the heck, it's off a bit.

    ok, here's one for you to solo over:

    backing track starts just before the solo. I just kept on going [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

    Very nice Pete. [img]images/icons/cool.gif[/img] There's nothing like throwing a Steely Dan disc on and crankin' it up a bit on a mellow afternoon. Very cool indeed.

      ...and what did you record it through. C'mon, Pete, do your TwisterAmps sales thing. [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

      Nice playing.

          Nice playing.
          <font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Thanks for the kudos.

          Ampwise, I used a Pod XT. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] I love tube amps, but for some stuff like late night recording, I really think a Pod or a J-station (pick your poison) is a hard to beat choice, unless you have a recording space like a soundproof basement. Even then, it took me less time to dial in a tone I liked and record it than it would have taken most people to place a microphone, dial in an amp and get levels.

          Speaking of amps, I have parts coming in for a top secret (ok, not top secret now) amp head that is going to be completely different from anything on the market that I know of. Should be interesting. I'll either be a hero or a zero, and I should find out by the end of the month. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

            I thought I could pick out the POD's sonic "signature", but the XT seems to be a bit harder to nail...I was really convinced that was an amp.

              I am deeply impressed. The tone is very tastefully chosen, the technique is superb... fine piece of work!...

              I love the artificial harmonics and the note slides... the fade out at the end with the solo sounds great and leaves room for craving more...
