Smooth - Featuring Kayla on Lead Guitar

[BAG]

Hi folks. Here's a home version of Santana's "Smooth" with Kayla doing all the lead work. All of it except the solo were first take with the solo requiring a second take for a fudged bit. I know i am a little (LOT) biased but it's pretty impressive as she's still only 9 years old.

I did the acoustic and (very average) vocals so please pay attention to the lead work and try and ignore the vocals.  (If someone would like to put some decent vocals on this we'd really appreciate it. Let me know and i'll send the mp3 of the guitars by themselves)

Here's a link to a You Tube vid of her doing the song live last week at our club. Unfortunately the position of the MBR made it so the lead guitar is a bit low in the mix. My wife assured me that there was more than enough Lead Guitar in the FOH mix. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XmNO88wZq4c

It's amazing. She's way better than me already, lol.

Only 9? Jeez, she's way better than me! 
Great job, and a great song choice.

I think we're witnessing the birth of a future Rock star!. How do I get a signature before she hit the big time. It'll be worth big bucks one day!

You must be proud!

She has a really nice feel for the instrument - she should feel pleased with herself!

Excellent for only 9 years old...way to go Kayla! When I was nine my concentration wasn't any where close to hers...I was still trying to catch bugs and such......I'm impressed!

I'm very impressed.  I showed my daughter (almost 3) the video.  She said, "That little girl is playing?"  Kayla's last song post was over a year ago.  What's she doing now?  Is she touring?
