Well now, that was a pretty interesting attempt at the improvised of a song I'd gone to New Orleans limited skills on the guitar but in the city of jazz, I started to expand my guitar in that direction After all, I was living in the Quarter, had grown a goatee, and was hanging out at after hours bars listening to very talented musicians trying to pick up some pointers
So in my to show off some of that talent to Travis and Milton The D 9th jazz chord I was attempting, made it out of the starting was produced is what is known as a clunker chord The guitars of a trainwreck
The was running on my session time so I just had them fade the ending before the On the original tape though, it was there When I listened to the track I thought about trying to repeating the fade but then I thought that chord was of the process
is essential to anything creative, trying to stretch beyond my comfort on the fretboard at the time My fingers could not make out I was thinking If it doesn't try and not repeat your mistakes
So that brings us to the B-side of the first and a song called: on Tuesday By the time we were ready to do the some local musicians had showed up at the and I knew it, I had a band for the next cut
and the funny thing is, back on it, one of the players on this track was a young from Mobile named Hersch, who was one of the members of Wet Willy who are from Mobile
Rick had gone on to play with bands from Newman to Stevie We would run into each on the road occasionally but then I touch with Rick As would have it, as we were putting the pieces of this project I went back to Mobile to with Milton and do interviews for the video in package that my daughter Delaney produced
While there as told 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 Rick was the guitar player on the track He told me he had been at house on Dog River in Mobile the night
You make this kinda stuff up I'm getting back in touch with Rick who now his time between Los Angeles and Dog He's now another nugget in our burried treasure and I to catch up with him Rick is still making great music so you might check him out In the meantime you can hear him right here on Abandon on
