mayer_shabetay Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Well, here is what I mentioned before in King´s thread about the blues. Here are two blues songs that I recorded (again, I´m doing all the instruments and vocals except for the backround vocals). In the first one, I couldn´t record the lead guitar. I just couldn´t do anything good enough for it. The producer said I just wasn´t making the guitar cry the blues. I hope I can come up with something this week so I can finish it.. Any suggestions will be apprecuate it as always. http://www.purevolume.com/MAYER68163 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

damian Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Thanks but I think it needs a couple of notes to decorate the song a little. Thanks for listening to it :) OK, I'll listen again, and re-post...................!!!!!!!!! // now back..... Mayer...your vocals on that track are sung smoothly...My gal just listened to me playing what I'd do on it...I suggest; follow each vocal part with lead guitar, very emotional type playing, almost like answering the vocal line....lots of note bending, reaching and stretching for the notes, nicely done short fast runs, answering the vocals.....back and forth, back and forth.....not copying the vocals per se, but answering them...LP bridge pickup, clean, bit of plate reverb.. The 'pop' type chorus; You know those octive type runs one can do, swimming around gently, those would fit nicely on that part....And some pinch harmonics thrown in there as well.......It's almost impossible to translate this in words.....even worse with the whole world reading it !!! If you'll permit, I'd like to record examples of what I mean, add them to this mix, and up-load them to a site that only you can access; even though you'll be done recording by the time I get this done; it will give you an example of what I was trying to translate via words, and if you like it, I can then in the future give you other examples when you get stuck for ideas.....and it can be done in private.....

Very cool ideas. You need to put a band together!! I loved the sound in Distant Lands[thumbup] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfpup Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Great stuff, Mayer! The finished tracks sound really good. As for soloing on "Baby, We Gotta Talk" to me it is just begging for some slide guitar! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved the sound in Distant Lands[thumbup] thanks man, my next idea is this country rhythym with a blues lead, and playing my harmonica over it, I may sing some poetry over it but I'm not much of a vocalist. It should be done today. ___ Purevolume is a hard site to learn don't feel bad, it took me about a week to learn how to add friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the voice, don´t worry!!!!!!!! My voice sucks but its fixed in the studio with a software called Melodyne. Now almost everything is fixed. As for Purevolume, its very hard. I am in Reverbnation and its so much easier. I guess I have to fool arround more with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
