Title: 48 Slidin' on Home...
Post by: The Reverend 48 on March 20, 2009, 06:09:53 AM
I was all set to do this properly I wrote down all the relavant timings
Listened to it about 10 times and Planned what I wanted to do.....  :-[
Picked up my Paul and it all went out the window and the mojo took over.......... ::)
This is the first take...Don't know where the Johnnie Winter style licks came from :o
Les Paul on Bridge
Effect Big Strum
Mix Live

I wasn't sure about fillin' in with Tim's amazing vocal but with a line like
"When the distant freight train moans"...It was begging for it ;D
What do you think?

Flipping heck. I'm stunned by this one. Perfect tone, control, licks and feel. The sun is out here in London, and I'm wearing a grin. Fantastic playing!

It only took an hour to write the lyrics and sing them, but 30 years to 'absorb' the blues vibe from my Dad and Robert Johnson, Son House, Cream, John Lee Hooker etc etc to allow me to do this...   :D

My god 48 you just charge out of the gate full throttle.  You have laid down a perfect version against Tims perfect lyric.  You have raised the bar high.  Good fricking job, I honestly can't think how to improve on your take.  Its not a competition of course, just loads of fun.  Man 48 what the heck did you have for breakfast today.  What a great, perfect collaboration fellas.  Johnny Winter style licks indeed!  I can't wait until I have time tonight to try my hand at this.

Now that's the blues ! 8) Really like the way you played off the piano in the middle without overpowering it. Great last few notes as well. Great job, great playing, great tone.

Cheers,

Nigel

This is the first song I've listened to from what will become in time 48s-All Star Stable. Oh, Sh*t, Mojo'd to perfection. Imagine listening to something like this in a sweaty cellar in London in 1962/3. This is what it was all about, you can actually hear an improved version of the early Stones at work. It should be pressed and released around the R&B circuit at once. You Guys have simply got IT.

Blues me baby. Nicely done! It had that 100% blues character, everything to from the vocals to the guitar work. Give me another beer!
