Video: Steely Dan’s “Josie”
This is from my recent release “Still Hungry“. It is a fairly straight cover of the Steely Dan classic. The guitar is my 2000 PRS Custom 22 Soapbar, played on the middle pickup (which requires some rewiring) through my old POD Pro 2.0 on the Dumble setting.
This video is the first time I used audio recorded on my main studio setup rather than the video camera, so the sound quality should be pretty decent.
Another New Video: Here’s That Rainy Day
This is the next video with the new camera. The audio really isn’t quite as good as I would like…still need to work on that.
This is a straight-forward chord melody arrangement of the Jimmy Van Heusen standard, “Here’s That Rainy Day”. This beautiful tune has always been one of my favorites. (more…)
New Camera, New Video: Birdland
I am something of a late-comer to the video revolution. That’s probably an understatement. This past week we got our very first ever video camera. Yes, we have waited this long. It is a Kodak Zi8, which seems to have a good rep. I’m pretty pleased so far. This is the first video with that camera. It handles the audio feed from my mixer pretty well, I think.
This is, of course, a cover of the Joe Zawinul/Weather Report fusion classic. I also played the bass on the backing tracks. Drums and keyboards are midi. The guitar is an Anderson Hollow Cobra sent through an old Line6 POD Pro.
Let me also state that I am well aware that the much improved video & audio quality does not result in any improvement in my totally load-like “stage presence”. It does let the music come through pretty well, however.
New Videos
Today I uploaded 8 videos to YouTube. All my videos are accessible at: http://www.youtube.com/user/shufflocity .
By the way, I am painfully aware I have no stage presence and look like a total dork when I am playing. It’s a bit late to do anything about that at this stage in my life, having been playing for more than 45 years. Hopefully I sound okay.
Here are the new ones: (more…)
My First Music Videos
The first three are tracks from my album, “Just the Three of Us”, which features all trio performances. I have previously posted all of the tracks as audio here on the blog. (more…)
