The story behind "In a Silent Way", here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_a_Silent_Way

I can clearly remember that the first time I listened to "In a Silent Way" (I was a teen ager...) I thought that it was the example of the word "perfection" in music. 40 years after I didn't change my mind.

So, when the dronefest was decided, I began to think that it could be an occasion for my tribute to this real gem, its composer, Joe Zawinul, and the GREAT Miles Davis. I hope they will forgive me for this cover...

Technical stuff:

guitar: American Deluxe Fender Stratocaster going into a patch of a Roland GT Pro
drone, soprano sax & trumpet: Godin Freeway SA going through various patches of a Roland GR-55

Enjoy!  :)
