Here’s a fresh piece from the semi-frozen garage: Andy’s and my first experiment with the “blues stick,” the 3-string electric cigar box guitar that my daughter and son-in-law gave me this Christmas.
I like the way we don’t need a drum track to keep up our steady rhythm, which feels as inevitable as the train of changes that I hear rumbling down the track just beyond our yard.
Pro tip? Record your drumless track in a garage at about 40 degrees F. Your body’s cold weather response makes for a vigorous and pulsing beat!
