Cover of Spooky Originally by the Classics IV
This is a tune originally by the Classics IV but this is more or less the Atlanta Rhythm Section (ARS) version.
We're coming into this tune at the keyboard solo played by my friend Ken Deans and then taking the song out from the third verse.
Also on this tune are my friends Mike Westnedge on drums and Dennis Farnsworth on bass.

Cover of "Never Tear Us Apart" by INXS

This is a cover of a great song by INXS. I'm taking a kind of bluesy approach to it. We didn't have a sax player so darn the luck, I had to take Another guitar solo instead... ;-)
Cover of "I Melt With You" By Modern English

This is me singing and playing a song by Modern English called "I Melt With You." I'm backed up by my friends from the Mid-Life-Crisis (MLC) band and we're playing at a Keep On Jammin' (KOJ) event at at an Irish Pub called Rare Olde Times in Henrico VA. All of the tunes we played that night were with zero rehearsal so thanks to the guys for just jumping in and getting it done.

Our last tune as the Power Trio at the BYO event held at Rare Olde Times in Henrico VA on 5/19/2021. I'm singing this super fun classic from Jimi Hendrix. This tune is a powerhouse. If you get a chance, check out the outtake rehearsal video where our drummer Mike Westnedge destroys the drum set during the solo, it's really funny. Here's the link to the outtake: ua-cam.com/video/bpWZBU3C7hY/v-de...

On this tune we have the Power Trio configuration from the last BYO Jam held at the Rare Olde Times Irish Pub in Henrico, VA. The players on this song are Mike Westnedge on drums, Jimmy Ford on bass and vocals, and me on guitar and vocals. I love the chord progression on this song, it's simple, but very melodic and elegant.

This was kind of a last minute call to replace another tune. It was a lot fun but honestly I could've used a few more reps before taking it out live. In rehearsal, I played all the fills and even some of the horn parts, but live, I just stuck to the rhythm parts so I wouldn't get confused on when to get into the next part. Here again we have Jimmy Ford on bass and Mike Westnedge on drums. I tel...

Hey Folks. This video is from the Bring Your Own (BYO) Musicians event held this time at the Rare Olde Times Irish Pub in Henrico Virginia. This is a configuration we put together and called the "Power Trio" with Jimmy Ford on bass, Mike Westnedge on drums, and me, Jeffrey Esoteric on guitar. Jimmy sang three and I sang three so I'll be posting up a video a day for the next six days. I hope you...
Fire By Jimi Hendrix Rehearsal Outtake with Funny Ending
Переглядів 283 місяці тому
Fire By Jimi Hendrix Rehearsal Outtake with Funny Ending. I had to put this up. Poor Mike Westnedge was having to suffer through rehearsal with my less than pro electronic drum kit. It's so small that I have it propped up on scrap wood so that it would be at least high enough for him to sit under. Anyway, as you'll see here, the kit was quite prepared for the power that Mike was bringing to bear.

This is a rehearsal video with Jimmy Ford playing bass and singing lead. We've got Mike Westnedge on drums and I'm playing guitar. I fluff up a few lines but that's what rehearsal is for. ;-) I hope you enjoy the video.

This is another outtake from a rehearsal from an upcoming event where the MLC band will do a six song SRV tribute. I'm sitting in on bass because the regular bassist, David Ross, had a schedule conflict and can't make the git.

This is Superstition By Stevie Wonder, Stevie Ray Vaughn's version, covered by a group that we've put together for an upcoming event. Actually, the group is called the Mid Life Crisis (MLC) band and I'm just sitting in on bass since their bassist can't make this particular gig.

A quick trio practice for an upcoming event. This is our first practice and of course there are some rough edges, but overall, I think we sounded pretty good. The vocals aren't coming through great, but we mainly just wanted to get a run-through of the tunes for the arrangement and didn't have time to sort out the PA for this practice.
WaterFalls Intro

This is a couple of my friends at our first and only rehearsal for an upcoming event. In this short clip, we're just playing the intro to Waterfalls by TLC but you can get a flavor of where the music is going to go at least from this clip.
