Ok, here is part 2. This is me jamming to a blues jam track in Bm. This was a revelation to me because I decided to record myself jamming over the track to see what would happen. I didn't think much of it until I played it back...and I thought "I just did that!!". It goes to show you how important it is to be able to listen to yourself playing from a recording - you get a totally different perspective.

Now, there are a few glaring clangers in there. I'm not used to playing in Bm, so I hit a few bad spots there. All things considered, I thought it came out pretty good. So, please ignore those if you can.

This was totally free form and I decided not to edit out that bad parts. In my opinion, you can hear that I'm feeling things out in the beginning and things flesh out more in the last half of the track.

For those that care, this is my American Standard strat on the neck pickup played into the "US blues" amp simulation in my Zoom G5 pedal with some reverb added.

What do you think? Is this any good?
