    Shakedown Street is such an odd album. I crank out this song on the Touch Tunes at my local bar, I can almost guarantee no one in there knows who the hell it is. I think the locals think its some offshoot, Pink Floyd B-Side.
    Thanks my man+

      I ordered a mxr envelope filter from reverb. It seems like it cuts out when I play high notes like 15th fret. Is this common?

    • @TobyDavvy
      @TobyDavvy  3 роки тому

      It just isn’t cutting through. I’d suggest adjusting whatever the equivalent of the “drive” is or adding an EQ pedal before it in the signal chain to boost your highs through it.

    Thank you, You must have made the number of subs private for a good reason. Nice jam... For a special treat check out 1/15/79 Miracle> shakedown. A friend of mine who went to school in springfield mass found a cassette of this show in his locker and it was a treasured bootleg of mine back in the 1980s.... The transition between miracle>shakedown could be the best ever. It is pre Brent 1979 era. People often don't have many tapes from 1979.. This is a real standout before Keith and Donna were gone from the band. Oh and also check out the Terrapin>playin from the same show and also the passenger (could be the first time I have EVER recommended someone listen to a passenger lol), Oh, one more thing... Is that a Milkman the Amp there? How do you like it?

    Just subscribed, great channel! Have been playing for awhile but still don’t know the technological side of the pedals and stuff. But I’m going to get more in-depth. I can play it and jam to a backing track but I’d like to get the pedals and such to make the effect. What do I need exactly. I heard you mention it in the beginning.

    • @brandonvalentine2555
