Gotcha interested with the catchy subject line, didn't I? Anyway, this is my neighbor (whom we will refer to as "Moesly" because the statute of limitations hasn't run out yet, so we don't want his real name exposed). His old band "Archie Drexel" went down in flames, but has given rise to a new one: "Route P Taxi". Unfortunately the only members so far are Moesly and a fairly attractive keyboardist/backup vocalist. And myself? Well, I'm happy just staying an "honorary member" and will probably do some studio harp work for the CD! (Moesly is a multi-instrumentalist who can play drums and bass so he can record a record before he even recruits the rest of the band. Wish I had some of that talent.)
i like it. you know i cant figure out if the first one an a hint of satan and adam or some kind of fox chase. what is that first riff/scale thing you do in the start?

Well, I've never studied or tried to imitate a fox chase, so if it sounds like that it is by complete coincedence. I suppose it is possible that I am just a "little" bit influenced by Satan and Adam. :)
The riff I am doing at the start is just a blues scale climber, but I come back and throw in a couple notes I've already played here and there. It has the six overblow in it with a little bend/inflection in it. Think I'll do a Riff of the Day video on it...stay tuned.
