Nice work, Pete! BTW, the backing track sounds like ~175 bpm but do you have the exact number?

Exact tempo is 172.

 

[Pete Thomas]

Exact tempo is 172.

says 176 in Logic...

Finally put a take together. Had to do a few edits to make up for continuing breath problems, but here goes take 1:

Great playing Pete! Glad to hear you and that things were well enough to get a take. Sounds like a combo Boots Randolph and Earl Bostic on Tenor to me 😀. I wish I had that much control over a growl. Thanks for inspiring me to try more with this tune!

You didn't pull out, didn't you? 😳😵

176 syncs up perfect with the metronome, thanks!

Well my waveform analysis was a total failure then. Sorry about that.

Hey man, you tried, that's all that matters. I had it kinda synced in Cubase but it was off by just a bit, nothing that made any real difference for me but when @Pete Thomas posted, I thought I'd ask and the 176 bpm lines up perfectly with the "bar boundaries". Again, thanks for trying and answering my post!

Really? 172 to 176 bpm is "total failure"? Wow, hope that pea under your dozen mattresses doesn't bother you TOO much.

 

[PigSquealer]

Just pull it out !

A math mistake like that can mean the difference between your rocket landing on Mars or missing it entirely. I’ll have to go back to the drawing board on this one and see what I missed.

Thanks for sharing that, Pete. I hope this means that you’re feeling better.

Gear heads need to know: What’s your setup on this?

It had me wondering whether you played on any tracks for Benny Hill?

I was listening through the whole thing for a Yackety Sax quote. Bummed that I never heard it. Fun stuff.

Best to ya!

Conn 10M, PPT 9* (SHD Pearlescent) D'Addario and Legere Signature reeds. (It's a composite of different takes as mentioned above). I'm hoping to improve my breath and at some stage do a new version.

Will Olbas oil be of any help? Opens and clears my pipes.

Might depend

.. You're putting Olbas oil

On which pipes?

 

[Dr G]

Do you have a squeaky Olbas?

 

[LostCircuits]

If it squeaks, it's not Olbas but Ricola

 

[Ivan]

On my to do list was Jamming on Jamba

It certainly cleared the pipes

Sequoia Tenor/ Morgan Fry Hollywood 10/ Légère Signature 2.0

There you go, I could hear how the pipes got cleared upper and upper
Nicely done!!
