IN A SILENT WAY / IT'S ABOUT THAT TIME / MARBLES - Part 1 of 2 - (1/2)

PART 1 OF 2 PLEASE WATCH THIS PART FIRST.....

Split apart due to the ridiculous 10 minute limit!

Inspired by Santana / John McLaughlin / Joe Zawinul / Miles Davis

This is a video of one of my demos. I thought i'd edit together clips from here and there into videos to go along with some of my demos, rather than just the sound. Since people often have a limited attention span, thus a video may lure them into listening for longer.

The track is IN A SILENT WAY / IT'S ABOUT THAT TIME / MARBLES written by Joe Zawinul / Miles Davis / John McLaughlin respectively. "In A Silent Way" and "It's About That Time" originally performed by Miles Davis and "Marbles" originally performed by John McLaughlin and all later by various other artists. It has quite a bit of influence from the Santana live versions, but it's kinda unique and different to in some way to each of the other versions.

just noticed, you got a Carlos Santana feel to your playing, very nice!

[shinkongo]

Hahah yeah there was a lot of influence from Carlos/Neal from that period of Santana from around the third album and the Santana live version of this here along with some John McLaughlin here and there.

[drummerman558]

@shinkongo Yeah i was just thinking i could hear a little something like John Mclaughin in your playing from listening to a few of your videos. Keep up the good work man.
