In case anybody is interested, this is a little old school for most of you but this is what I have at the moment:

Nice work, Wil! Not too old-school, although it would be good music to go shuffleboarding to ;) :D

Nice. Did you do the backup band tracks as well? Nice playing and the bass sounds nice and even.

What do you use as an interface b/w your instrument and GarageBand?
Something like this? http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/MAudio-Fast-Track-USB-Computer-Recording-Interface?sku=703606

Dude, you're the only person who understands the vibe I'm going for. :D
Thanks guys...I'm going into my mac with a FastTrack USB interface and a Yammy mixer, same as always. The Fodera is really hot so I have no problem getting a strong signal.
The backing is an old Aebersold thing with Hank Marr, just imported into GB. Hank Marr beats Band in a Box by a country mile.
The Fodera has a really sweet, big warm sound...Christoph, you are totally right, nothing is like it.

I really dig the tunes Wil! The Fodera sounds amazing.
What kind of Mac are you using?

Good stuff Wil - your phrasing is really nice as are your chops, good balance between them and yes the bass sounds lovely - would be nice to hear you busting out in a live setting, home recording is cool but playing out is the best - I know I need to get out more right now...but I just bought a flat and I love staying in!
Keep it up dude - sounding great.

Oop! I didn't see this had been bumped. Thanks Bernie and Mike, you guys rock. I got this cool book by Hal Galper called Forward Motion and that seemed to help get my phrasing together a little better. It's a slow process for me. However, I really got alot out of that book.
I need to get some new live recordings happening, I have been gigging enough but have been really lazy about setting up the minidisc player...
Bernie, it's just a 2Ghz Core Duo Macbook with 1GBsdram...it runs Garageband great.

Great stuf Will.

Will, That is one of the tastiest solo's I've heard posted on TB. I like the fact that it is melodic and you that you build the chops section instead of just giving us a blowing fest. You could teach a lot of players improvisation here, including me. Thanks for putting this up.

I really appreciate it man...still working on this stuff. Would love to come up and see the MI contingent sometime in the near future.
Here is some more. I won't clutter another thread with it.
