2024oct08 - little wing

I think it's time I start practicing. I play guitar all the time and can sit and play leads and bullshit but I suck when thrown into a context like this for my lack of practicing to backing tracks (like this one). Probably would play better in situations like this if I was slightly stoned so I don't overthink. Used only my Kemper with a Dumble profile and the fuzz options on there are shit. I can play the intro but had no idea where to come in as there is a three count thing and it wasn't lining up even after setting the project to 60BPM (the same as the SRV instrumental version of "Little Wing"). Tried a few times where the fifth would have been. 1:18 is horrid. I'll definitely spend a little less time wasting time with bullshit and practice this for some time. While I don’t think I am a great player by any stretch of my imagination, this was my first go at this backing track - if I don’t improve I’m throwing in the towel.


Second try now. It’s obvious I punched in at 2:17. Gonna walk away from this exercise in futility for now.
