  • Original “Mr Warthog”

    I had a very weird dream – one of those where you are dreaming and at the same time thinking…..”wow this is a weird dream”….
    As soon as I woke up at 5:30am I was at my computer and writing and an hour later I had it in some form. Recorded a demo to experiment with melody and instrumentation. My goal was a 1 chord (E) talking blues format but this has an occasional A and B thrown in. I am playing along with the demo so my timing is a bit off in a few places – it is hard to duplicate spoken vs singing words I have found. Now the question is … do I record it for real and release it?

    A real taste of “guitar glory” @TMutter – Absolutely, put it out there for wider distribution. Seriously clever, very catchy tune.

      @That_Guy I need to get those guitar tracks tightened up and get a better drum track to keep it “grovin”😎!

    It your call but it is a fun composition. I enjoyed not only the playing but the visualization of the story line.

      Thanks @albert_d for listening. I am leaning towards recording it. It is fun to play and is a balance to many of my other songs that tend to be of a more serious note. More work to do to tighten it up.

      @stevieblues Thanks for listening – it is fun to play and I and the Fretboard wizard classes and daily challenges have boosted my confidence in adding little guitar riffs to make it more interesting.
