[NotTheGuy]

I'm new to this forum, but have been playing for a few years. I'm basically your average old fart just past a mid-life crisis - started playing again in 2000 after a short 20 year break - Here's some samples of my recent recordings:

1. A slash-style bluesy lead riff - This is a tab and backing track from Total Guitar Mag - I just thought it was really tasty!

2. Iggy and the Stooges - Search and Destroy to a Backing track (again from Total Guitar Mag)

3. Ten Years Gone - to a really crappy midi backing track....

Let me know what you think.

I have some other stuff at

Thanks for that, I really enjoyed it. It's been so long, literally years, since I've heard Ten Years Gone that I'd forgotten how good it was. The twenty year break didn't do your skills any harm. Thanks for posting. I'm off to dust of my Zep box set.

You have good skills man. How are you at just jamming over bts improv style, no tabs? Glad you found the forum. Sounds like you will move through the lessons here pretty quickly. You may want to consider Kirks' book Plane Talk if you want to work on improv skills and deepen your understanding of the workings of music.

Wow that really was Slash-esque, when he's not tearing it up at least, the end sounds Oasis-like

Nice playing, NTG, sounds like you made it through to the other side of your mid-life crisis successfully.

I can't even remember mine, it was that long ago.

LOL - Yes, I survived........I think. I look back at the 20 year 'rest' as one of my biggest regrets, but you can't look back.....

The worst part....I sold a 1972 beautiful Fender Strat for about $200 in 1976 and a Fender Twin Reverb for about the same.......what an idiot!

Wow, a good 72 strat. That is rare, you'd have a hard time replacing it. 200 bucks for a twin. Ouch.
