John's Jam Sessions

This web page is dedicated to miscellaneous recordings that are mostly rehearsal sessions. I do these strictly for fun, not for sonic perfection! Look for lots of guitar solos, beats, acoustic songs, and whatever else I can pull out of the trash can!  LOL

Enjoy!

"Wednesday Blues Jam" copyright 2006 by John Durant
(Composed, performed, produced and recorded by John Durant)

This is just a quick jam session that I recorded a couple of months ago. I do a lot of these recordings over loops to rehearse guitar solos and get some finger exercise. This is kind of a funk song, and definitely has sort of a Stevie Ray Vaughn feel to it. Stevie is my favorite blues influence, and I can't imagine what he'd be playing now if he were still alive, but I know it would be amazing!

>>>>For guitar players....the final "chorus section" features a three octave sliding solo with the fingering stretching six frets, muting the other strings. (no Octave FX pedals on this song) It sounds pretty huge, so listen all the way through!
