Entertainment: "Valencia", "The Sidewinder" with the GR-20
Posted: 08 Jan 2017, 22:39Hi all,
Belated Merry Christmas and a safe and peaceful New Year.
I hope you will like these 2 live recordings albeit non-conventional, using my Roland GR-20 Guitar Synth.
- "Valencia" Luis Mariano's version
- "The Sidewinder" (Lee Morgan, 1963) a tune that I always loved. (I did a short segment of it only)
I tried to emulate the Trombone playing on the guitar.
You have to be very careful not to touch any string while playing with the GR-20 or you end up with weird sounds coming from nowhere.
Also, the midi pickup next to the bridge tends to come off the base, so I keep pushing it down before the start.
Blessings,
Abel
