Well, my friend Carl finally came over today after 12 years. Ah yes! Raising a family and running a successful business will do that...
Anyways, this is the result of his input on a little idea I had at the beginning of the week (I knew he was coming over so I prepared something especially for him). Carl solos first, me next.

Special mention to Nestor's "The bass that won the war" in the passages in G.

Enjoy!

Smokin'.

Somebody likes Al DiMeola 'eh?
Very powerful, I like the push & pull effect of the snare being ahead and on top.
I really like the keyboard sound that sounds like a clavisynth, being a board player I can honestly say......bring it up in the mix !!

Sounds Really Good.
Glad to see you kickin' it.

Thanks Jimmy.

Wanna try sending me a clavinet part that I could put in here instead of my boring track?
No reverb or echo, please!

Happy New Year Paul! Long time no see.
awesome playing as always! Lots of maj 3rds as transient notes in your solo, I don't know the proper terminology for it.
What trumpets did you use?? They sound very good.

oh, btw, I was up in montreal about a month ago. Actually drove to quebec, and then back down to ny through montreal. Too bad we got to montreal late on a sunday (late, as in 8:00 pm) and everything was closed. We parked right outside the underground passway (mall, subway concourse, whatever it's called) and I was freaked out because there was nobody around. We walked to a nearby Hilton, and I asked the bell captain... "Is it safe to walk around?"

.....

The guy didn't even understand what I was asking him. I laughed and told him we were from NY.

Next time I should look you up!

yes, bring up the accompaniment!

the drums seem a little thin and the mids a little scooped, but the guitars, horns and Nestor's bass samples sound great!
