'Santa Carla' - Greeny Original Instrumental

[Greeny]

You may remember the town of Santa Carla from the 80's movie 'The Lost Boys'. This is me trying to capture the 80's vibe of that in some way. Fender Strat & Jazz plus Garageband drums all done on the MBR. The left hand guitar is recorded by the MBR mic in front of my amp.

Another Greeny Great! Definitely nailed the era vibe!

The trouble with Santa Carla - too many darn vampires! What a great film.

Did you remind me of the era of highlighted mullets, incredibly loud shirts, stupid trousers and chorusy guitars? Well to some degree but fortunately there wasn't really enough cheese here. Excellent guitar melodies and cool guitar sounds (which do have an 80s vibe) and as always lovely contrapuntal bass lines. Recording guitar with the MBR mike worked well IMO.

Loved it, just shows you can have a killer Greeny track without razor-sharp lyrics and vocals....

Nice piece. I especially like the bass work. Great playing, in general.

A trip back to 1988, and Keifer Sutherland frightening us all. That movie had such an impact on us.
Love the instrumental Tim. Amazing what you and others can do with the little silver box. Great playing and I  couldn't help but notice the great bassline as well.

love it, the lead is reminiscent of the sound you used on "kicking the habit" by Jemima's Kite.

Nice track greeny, love the tone on the guitar.
Regarding the bass ive always admired the bass work on your songs but theres so much good stuff happening around them i never comment on it so glad its been pointed out.
Top marks.

[Hook]

Spectacular tones, I love the spacy/chorusy rhythm guitar. Nicely done.
Rock on!
