Well listening now, that was a pretty interesting at the ending of a song I'd gone to New Orleans with limited skills on the but in the city of jazz, I started to expand my guitar expertise in direction After all, I was in the French Quarter, had grown a goatee, and was hanging out at after hours bohemian listening to some talented musicians trying to pick up some pointers
So in my attempt to show off some of that to Travis and Milton The D 9th jazz I was attempting, never made it out of the starting What was produced is what is as a clunker chord The version of a trainwreck
The meter was on my session time so I just had them fade the ending before the On the original tape though, it was still When I first listened to the track I about trying to repeating the fade but I thought that clunker chord was of the process
Improvising is to anything creative, trying to stretch beyond my comfort on the fretboard at the time My fingers could not out what I was thinking If it doesn't just try and not your mistakes
So that brings us to the of the first record and a song Abandoned on Tuesday By the time we were ready to do the some local had showed up at the studio and before I knew it, I had a for the next cut
and the funny is, looking back on it, one of the session players on this was a guitarist from Mobile named Hersch, who was one of the founding members of Wet who are from also
Rick had on to play with bands from Randy Newman to Stevie We would run into each other on the occasionally but then I lost touch Rick As would have it, as we were putting the pieces of this together I went to Mobile to visit with Milton and do interviews for the video in this package that my daughter produced
While there as Milton his version of events, he reminded me that the guitar player on Abandoned on and several other was Rick Hersch Our for Buried Treasure is Will Kimbro who is also Mobile When I told him that Rick was the guitar player on the He told me he had at Rick's house on Dog River in Mobile the night
You can't make kinda stuff up I'm back in touch with Rick who now splits his time between Los and Dog River He's now another nugget in our burried and I plan to catch up him soon Rick is still making great so you might wanna check him out In the meantime you can him right here on Abandon on Tuesday
