I really enjoyed this, perhaps it's because I spent this morning practising some stuff that's a bit like it. Agree with John's feedback mostly, the shuffle-stop thing you do with the drums later on is really nice. Only thing I would say is either turn the drum track down a little or better still, turn your volume up, there were times I was struggling to hear your chords under the drums.

Confession time, I've played it four times now and the third and forth were spent improvising along with it.....my theory not being brilliant I don't know if it would be written down this way but what you were doing hinted at lydian mode to me, so I started playing lydian starting on c over the a root chord. If you haven't tried that have a go...it gets boring doing the whole track that way but it's some spice to add to the main meal.

I know it sounds cheeky but is there any chance I could have your backing track so I can record a couple of those ideas and post them in this thread? I really love that rhythm, it puts me in mind of something by Hendrix but I can't think what it's called.
