Back In Time

[Veenture]

If you like, you can listen to nine pre-mixed takes (mistakes and all) played by our re-grouped band "Back In Time" only just recently and recorded at a friend's recording studio, for a new album. On the following tracks I play lead on my AVRI '57 Fender Stratocaster through a vintage 60s Vox AC30 Top Boost amp:

Le Dernier Train De L’espace (The Last Space Train)
Chattanooga Choo-Choo
Last Date

And on the following tracks you can hear me play lead part on my Hallmark 60 Custom (through the same amp.):

Diamond Head
Surf Rider
Walk, Don’t Run
Ginza Lights
Journey To The Stars

On "Karelia" I play the rhythm part.

Compare the sounds of my two axes; such different animals -both my most favorite instruments.
Hope you enjoy listening and if you have time to kill, do tell me your favorite track.
Our drummer kindly put them all on YouTube today, thanks Herman.

Hey Paul,

That was some mighty fine guitar picking!
If I ever get to Holland you'll have to give
me a Ventures guitar lesson or two.

Super Cool!

Very nice Paul!
When I see what you do compared to my manic three-chord bashing I feel like a neanderthal banging rocks together.

Thanks Eddy! Hey, I could do with one or two lessons myself, ya' know!!

Very nice Paul!

Hey Bill, it's how one does what one does not the level of 'music-ability' -whatever that may be. I'd rather hear a simple piece of music or rhythm that's played with feeling than some learned professor playing Bach by simply 'going through the motions' i.e. without putting his heart into it. You and your band have more credits to your name than I ever shall have. Thanks for your comment...take care

Great stuff, I watched a few and really enjoyed them!

[brutus]

Great tunes Veenture! Ginza Lights all the way. Great touch and phrasing.

[rog43win]

Holy cow, Paul! I listened to half a dozen of the songs and I am so impressed! You play very nicely...great sound by all the band!
I liked Ginza Lights too alot.....but even Walk Don't Run was outstanding....
When I get more time, I will hear all of the songs ......thanks for posting your link!
I think your band is really good....much success!

Very nice Paul, great job! I'm kinda partial to Walk Don't Run, myself. I notice the drummer has Gretsch drums. Very cool. Tell him he needs to smile every now and then.

[Veenture]

Brutus, Roger, Sarah, thanks for your kind comments. Oh, and actually, all the bandmembers need to smile more often Sarah, but I'll tell our drummer anyway...

[Haole Jim]

Paul, 'just found this thread and did some listening to your fine, fine playing.

Outstanding playing, you really have a feel and touch. Please accept mouth-hanging-open awe.

A bit of a smile formed however, at "Chatanooga Choo Choo" (WW II about traveling from the East Coast to the South) and "Ghost Riders," a cowboy Western reference, being played in continental Europe.

Thank you so much for sharing.
