Topic: Trio question (9 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Probably Russell might answer this .Has any one managed to achieve a Latin rhythm with a trio .I'm trying to get a backing for oye Como va .I normally use one I created with my keyboard but I'm experimenting at the moment.

I've been on the same bill as Hugh Corwell from the Stranglers ,had a beer with Steve Hilllage ,Kev Ayres and Mike Oldfield.And jammed with some of Greece's finest over the years.I'm lucky to live in an area inhabited by many famous folk musicians ,nearest is Mike Harding who lives about a mile up the road.

Topic: Trio (4 replies, posted in My local band and me)
Tomorrow I will use two digitech trios live at Harrogate blues bar. Usualy I record the trio onto my loop but I feel the sound is better this way .I can have six pre sets with the two pedals which is adequate for the half hour set. I'll let you know how it goes.

Nice job Jan you gave it a kind of reggae feel .Some of the phrasing in this song is hard ,I sometimes struggle ,I like your version ,it's good to see how others interpret a song.This is a good thread.

Hi Jan ,been a bit tied up of late and preoccupied with new house project ,new car and ongoing throat problems.I've listened to all the versions and I must applaud the artists who covered the songs each had its own slant which I think is how a cover should be attempted.Well played every one.
