And the tunes were terrific! I loved that record. The New Chautauqua was beautiful, there was 80/81 with Charlie Haden, Dewey Redman, Michael Brecker, and Jack De, Johnette, I missed out on "American Garage", then Offramp. With the Beatles tunes, I was reharmonizing and looking for brand-new ways to play them in my own style. The Metheny music I wanted to record was all complete band tunes as I heard them. In my imagination, I was reconsidering them as solo guitar pieces. https://pastebin.pl/view/dac4c8e5 was attempting to take them back to square one to imagine how he might have presented them to atrioventricular bundle initially.</p><br><br> <br><br><br><br> <br><p class="p__2">I was taking them back to jazz guitar. The difficulty was to put them back on the guitar and translate them that way. And if I was going to blow on them, I could not do a Joe pass thingno single-note stuff, fast chord, hot lick, some more blowingand Pat already played all the hot licks on these tunes you could think of. How do I stick in all these little parts? That was the obstacle. Picture: Jessica Molaskey/ Thanks To Ghostlight Deluxe I was searching for the things that are important to the listener and be real to those Methey-isms. On"Better Days Ahead", I needed to square off the tune a bit, and there were times when I felt I had to do what he did. I had all the appropriate chords<br><br>and melodiesa gold mine. I didn't tinker various guitars or amps in recording. I utilized the very same guitar on all of these, my classical seven-string with an actually excellent acoustic pick-up. I recorded it flat into my i, Pad through i, Rig and sent it to Rick Haydon in St Louis. I do not think a solo guitar album would have occurred, however for the pandemic. The phone was not going to ring.</p><br><br> <br><br><br><br>
