Topic: High Heeled Sneekers
We climbed into the way back machine for this song late 50's early 60's and gave it a new coat of polish

Russell ..........I enjoyed foot tapping along with you and the guys, once again your all really enjoying it and getting into it 
I did have a bit of trouble hearing the lyrics in parts though.

note on the mix , Graham I video taped this with a Sony MVI movie cam and should have fed the audio into my pc and processed it separate but I was a bit tired not a very original excuse but at my age better ones are harder to come up with 
I like the sound of my Tele on this I am using a Boss ME-50 for the delay and distortion and kicking thru a Crate and Marshal amp stereo to fatten the sound I agree it rocks along fun to play. thanks for the feedback

Great, love the instrumental break. In previous posts I've commented on not being able to hear the bass, but on this number he's right up there with you. I wonder if the drummer's ok after taking the full force of the nuclear bomb in the backdrop.

KIT yep good ol rock n roll nothing better for me,we did adjust the mic position to pickup the bass better and I am responsible for the bomb and face melting footage I shot that with my I phone off the tv and the drummer is radiation free thanks for watching.

Russell
nice sounds on your band's performances. Like the special effects on the screen.
Is that a telecaster you are playing ? It looks and sounds fantastic.
keep 'em coming man, fun to watch and makes me envious at the same time.
Thanks for sharing

Thank you Jim the special effects are gleaned from various you tube videos I filmed with my HD cam off of the screen and processed them in TrakAx video program which has green screen (chroma key) functions. yes it is a new Modern players Telecaster the bridge is a humbucker the mid is a strat and neck is a tele lipstick pickup it also has a treble boost and a lightning fast neck,.I picked it up from Sweetwater as a demo for $265.00 they sell for almost twice that now but well worth it thanks for viewing and commenting
