.... one I just made up ... Kenny

Craig , The guy that did that song had an entire flock of Llama Lamps ? Well , that certainly explains why I like that tune. Be ins I'm a former Funny Farm Escapee on the run hiding in plain sight ... Kenny

If you decide to get a Llama Lamp be sure you wear a wet suit when you record . When Llama lamps get excited they are known for spitting out tunes Kenny

Ya . shrooms ! that sounds good ......I wonder if they would work for me or not since I'm already like this w out them ... What ! No Llama Lamps ? Kenny

Ouch that studio looks uncomfortable and seems a little drab . OK . Fixed. Kenny

The Lava Lamp Genie is here to grant your wish . Kenny

Hi Rik, Thanks for giving this tune a listen . I did give your tune a listen . It sounded good . Hi Starise , Constantly learning and working on my chops seems to be an area of music where I get a little satisfaction . Then the next day it's all like what just happened ? My fingers just got a case of instant amnesia.... lol ... FWIW , what ever progress I've made on the guitar always feels mercurial to me . Yes, I hope to keep on sharing wit Y'all ... thank you for your support and encouragement . Cool Beans , Hi Larry ! I'm glad you gave this clip of mine a listen . Thank you for taking the time to comment . all the best, Kenny

Hi Douglas Kirby . Thank you for the kind words you said . I appreciated hearing them ... Hi Rik , Thank you very much for the song listen and having nice things to say about my playing .It means a lot too me . all the best, Kenny

Hi Rik , I like what you did Your version is a good listen You had nice octaves going during the songs opening phrases .. I enjoyed the space and breathing room you left open as the song played . Yeah , nice use of electric Gypsy type of scales and sounds , Sounds good man . all the best, Kenny

Actor portrayal due to my desire to adhere to the forums TOS . I'll say one thing for Studio Bear , He don't skimp when it comes to having all the necessary tools . all the best, Kenny

Kenny

I wish I could help you unfortunately My Lips Are Sealed ...burp .. Say while I have your attention , could you please pass me the apple sauce ? Kenny

OK I believe you .. Kenny

Hi Freddy ! thank you for the song listen and kind words . Joad , A volume pedal is a cool thing to have ...I need to get one someday ...till then, I will continue to just use my pinky. ( on the guitars I have that will let me do it that way ) . glad you dug my geetar playing ... Hello Grem , Glad you gave this one a listen and dug the sounds ... I put a lot of thoughts into things long before I even touch my instrument .. I live w a track primarily w my ears and heart only . I listen I listen I listen ...then I listen some more . If I dig the track enough I create a story and make a loose plan of what I might play ...then I will experiment and play over the parts of the song that may give me a problem ... Don't get me wrong , I also will play over the parts I like , the thing is I don't like flying high on my guitars fret board and then hitting a section of a song that takes me out into a back alley , beats me up and then tries it's best to mug me ... To be perfectly honest I don't really care what guitar I'm gonna play or what type of gear I'm gonna use ..all that "stuff " is there is to serve me , not the other way around... I generally have one or two guitars out within arms reach at all times . Thankfully my super large dog does not think they are his personal chew toys ... Depending on what Guitar I have out will determine whether I will use it or not . In this case I had a solid body and a Jazz Box out ...that's what I used ... As far as guitar synths goes , I have older tunes out where it is all heavy synths and textures ...Now a days I tend to use my midi guitar playing in more subtle ways .. In this song the most obvious guitar synth section was the section you pointed out. Then there's the 12 string on the other side ( left ) My Bass playing was on a 4 string ,yet in those sections my guitars counter melodies were analog Jazz box right& Gtr Synth left ... anyway that's all care to share for now , have a good one , Kenny

^^^^^^^bitfliper ^^^^What! I wasn't expecting that at all considering the tune 😂 Wow ,that little girl is certainly the cannon .. love all the little faces and expressions she does... Man , she can sure play.....now I feel old Kenny

H Grem , Yes your playing over the B T came out very good . I'm glad you went for it , Kenny

Kenny

Hi Ed , Yes that makes 2 of us ... Kenny

I hear you on that one ...That Bear has some home studio Kenny

Kenny

T ! thank you for the song listen ,I sure will. Hi garybrun , Me too 🤣 I'm trying over here ..progress seems slow .. thank you for commenting amiller , Glad you do . thanks . Hi Andy ! I have been messing around on the side w where I may want to take this ...I'm glad you like what I have done so far . I'm glad I trusted my original playing instincts ..now I have to be super careful as to what I may add to the song . thank you for your comments . I love doing the volume swells. They are done using only my right hand pinky w a synchronized left playing hand ...no automation . When I was younger people used to tell me I would be a really good guitar player once I slowed down and played with a lot more feel ... They didn't tell me that it was gonna take a real long time and for me to get a lot older for that to happen 🤣 Hi Lynn, Sure it is possible . I love Roy's playing ... thank you for always being so kind and generous in your comments on my playing . it means a lot too me . Hi Bjorn , I'm glad you liked my guitar playing on this . As a matter of fact , yes I do hit lots of wrong notes . When I practice I go out of my way to hit them . " Yesterdays Wrong Note Discovered in Practice Has The Potential to Become Today's New Hip Sounding Passing Tone " he he he thank you all , Kenny Kenny

Yeah tell me about it ....I still miss P 5 All the arp patterns that came w P 5 are included in SONAR / Cakewalk ....they have been for a while ... They show up both as midi files and pattern files it is true you may not be able to save them as pattern file ..you can save them as midi files . It has been a while since I have recorded the arp patterns in real time so my info may be rusty ... what I used to do was set up a synth and then play the synth w the midi track section enabled ...then I would send that out to another midi track to record the arp affected midi as it was rendered ...rust like I said but i did end up with a usable midi file w arp to ue any way I wanted . any way I do not know if I'm helping any 🤣 if I'm not helping any , I'm sure scook will show up pretty soon and correct my misguided misinformation Kenny

WOW , Your Les has a nice expressive throaty sound ...( it is a Les right ? ) Yes that was a good listen . I enjoyed your song and your playing . There was a nice uplifting vibe and mood through t the song as it played . keep up the good work . Kenny

Your song is laying down a serious groove and kicking some Hard core ***** . Man I love this type of Fusion Reminds me a lot of some of Michael Brecker & Steps Ahead Music on most fronts except for the bass . Daryl Jones plays a lot more flamboyant ....Hey your guitar player sounded a little bit like Mike Stern ... Now I miss Mike B ...we were casual friends . I got to hang and know him pretty good when I worked on music row in NYC . Then when we both wound up in sobriety ...it sealed the connection . I used to give him cassettes of my tunes ...talk about having a sett of balls and being fearless .He like my playing but it wasn't right for him When I asked him how I could get to play with him he told me that he was locked down pretty tight as far as his circle went . He told me straight up that I would be much better off trying to find unknown musicians that had the playing goods and chops ....meaning the next Mike B .... Alright ..When do I start playing with you ? 🤣 Kenny PS Oh yeah I did enjoy listing to your song ....great energy all across the board

That is a pretty serious message you conveyed in the song and your video . Your vocals combined with the visuals and the music were synergistic You sound big because you acknowledged how small we really are . (as individuals in the grand scheme of things .) Other than that words fail me . Kenny
