Here's one I did this evening, It's a bit rough and there's not that many tracks.
I used my 82 Strat> a lot of compression> a bit of overdrive and not too much echo. There are no rhythm tracks only two tracks of damped playing in stereo, (like south of the border type of playing, I don't really know what that's called) and Fender Pbass
The drums are Groove Agent.
Hope you like it....

That takes me back! Written by the same guy who wrote Pink Panther theme - Henry Mancini it was in the film Hatari in the early 60's.
You have captured the feel of the piece beautifully and those finger trills work out well.
Didnt need a lot of tracks - less is more in this particular case.
cheers

Hi Charles,
I liked that very much. The tone is very nice and the playing is just super.
What did you use for the compression?

I really didn't know what to expect after seeing this title in the Soundfiles section.
What a lovely surprise !! It really swings along and the guitar sound is excellent.
Some very tastful guitar playing.
