Hey Rob ... wow, thanks for the compliments. The lady I'm playing with I've played on and off with for 5-6 years whenever she has a bigger gig. To answer your questions on registrations ..... I have the SE classic with barker but I usually have the barker switch off as in this track. The drive is coming from both the preamp and the leslie. I like to get it to the point where I can start at 877002008 back off, push the 1' (9th) pullbar back in and it's clean for backup. Then pull the 1' when I start to swell and have it all the way out on lead with a nice "fuzz" for drive. I couldnt get it without that beautiful preamp.

Also I'm down here in Mobile, AL ... alot of great musicians down here but no bands. It feels like an incestuous family of players. For example, the drummer plays in another band I work with as well as playing with Wet Willie and the backup singer (lady) plays with another band I work with and used to sing with Grand Funk and still works with Wet Willie. The girl singing lead is a nobody to most but is big in what I call the "Melissa Etheridge" circuit. Those are very interesting and sometimes very fun gig's to play. We've all been trying to get her to step out ... hard to do .... but I think she'll be getting noticed soon. But, that sound is her's .... and yes she is very soulful. I'm very privledged to play with her. Thanks for the compliments. Hope that answers your questions.

Bo

Hi Bo--Man, your board tracks sound better than most commercial
releases do these days!!! I didnt know anybody even played real music
like that anymore. Is that your band or was that a pick-up gig? Very
cool and very soulful. If you wouldnt mind, I would really like to know
what settings/registrati ons you were using on that "Radio" song. I know
most of the guys/girls on this Group can just hear it and tell, but
please cut me some slack-I am mainly a guitar player- I would
appreciate any specific info on getting that sound. I have a CX3,
Speakeasy, and a 147, but I also have a rack Electro 2(which I bought
mainly for the Wurli and Rhodes sounds)-I may think about getting
another speakeasy made for the Electro, or maybe having my CX3 SE
modified to accomodate both the CX3 and the Electro. By the way, what
city are you in? Just curious; I love Soul-I've been in Nashville for
years and a lot of the old Mussel Shoals and Memphis guys ended up
here. Isaac Hayes' B3 was in a studio here for a long time. Steve
Croppers daughter was one of my guitar students.

Anyway, any registration info would be appreciated. Thanks, Rob J.
