Well now, that was a pretty interesting attempt at the improvised ending of a I'd to New Orleans with limited skills on the guitar but in the city of jazz, I attempting to expand my guitar expertise in that After all, I was living in the French Quarter, had a goatee, and was hanging out at after hours bars listening to some talented musicians trying to pick up some pointers
So in my attempt to show off some of that talent to Travis and 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 meter was on my session time so I just had fade the ending before the clunker On the original though, it was still there When I first listened to the track I thought trying to the fade but then I thought that clunker chord was part of the
is essential to anything creative, trying to stretch my comfort zone on the fretboard at the time My fingers could not out what I was thinking If it doesn't try and not repeat your mistakes
So that us to the B-side of the first record and a song called: 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 young from Mobile Rick Hersch, who was one of the founding of Wet Willy who are Mobile also
Rick had gone on to play with bands Randy Newman to Stevie We would run into each on the road occasionally but then I touch with Rick As faith have it, as we were putting the of this project together 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 the guitar player on Abandoned on Tuesday and other tracks was Rick Hersch Our Producer for Treasure is Will Kimbro who is also Mobile When I him that Rick was the guitar player on the track He told me he had at Rick's house on Dog River in Mobile the before
You can't make this kinda up I'm getting back in touch with who now splits his time Los Angeles and Dog River He's now another nugget in our treasure and I plan to catch up him soon Rick is still making music so you might wanna check him out In the you can hear him right here on Abandon on Tuesday
