SChhhhzzzzch....Szzzz....CHCHCHhhhh. "Captain, it's a transmission from Tele-X" "Get a lock on that frequency.. and put it on the monitors" "Aye, aye, captain" Kenny, good to hear from you. This is nice. A little jazz, a touch of BB, but unmistakably KW. The tele sounds good, and I love the synth bits. This totally sounds like you are having fun, and getting into your groove. I heard about the bike mishap. Very glad to see you are getting better.

Nice groove mix sounds good too. Ouch on the arm.

Like the different shades of rock/jazz, very interesting for the listener. The intro is pretty cool, really grabs your attention, sounds vai-ish, then goes off in another direction......;) Love the sound of the tele, so clean and bright.

This is a great tune! I love the changes and your playin' is great as always. I know about falling off of bikes and mountains, etc. My prayers are with you for your fast recovery. It's great to hear that guitar weeping again, Kenny.

I like the tune and the playing. Is there supposed to be a bunch of snaps and crackles?

Kenny, here is a small sample of stuff uploaded. That is my dream kit. I do play Yamaha and Steven Slate samples. These recordings are strait from my kit as stereo. The first song is a cajon not my kit. http://www.reverbnation.com/evenme

Hi Kenny, Sorry to hear about the accident and injuries but it sounds like you are definitely on the road to recovery. Cool song and great playing. My only crit would be that it's too short

Hi markno999, my whole approach to music is to play and record the tune I would want to hear myself as a listener maybe someday I might actually achieve that goal ...lol I'm glad you enjoyed Phat G... Hi Scottytunes, I'm also glad that I'm back in one piece , the benevolent universe plays into that big time thanks for the kind words Hi batsbrew, I'm glad you enjoyed my playing, tones & melody's all of my multiple personality's extend you a warm thank you ... Hi rhynosynth, the bike wreck = having to start all over on many levels of my life after paying some hard to swallow dues ..whew... I'm in a better place now glad you enjoyed my tune Kenny

Nice tone! The kind one can only get from a Les Paul, very nice. I thought the jazzy feel of this was really cool, and I don't like jazz?

Hey, Kenny, Wow, very sorry to hear about your accident, but I'm really glad to see that you're recuperating well and back to making excellent music again! We missed you around here. It sure didn't seem to affect your dynamite guitar playing. This is full of fantastic, smooth, fluid melody lines and beautiful clean tones. Also, nice tight production work. Glad to see you around again, and keep up the great work! Bob

Hi Warren, thank you for the kind words & prayers a guitar that can weep tears of joy and rapture thats what I want to be able to exxpress now if only i can get the guitarist i occasionally shave in the morning to step up & follow that program lol Hi Kroneborge , i suspect that soundclick was running their "monkey wrench plug in" on my tune during the time you gave it a listen thanks for the song listen & commenting BrentB, I heard 3 tunes .... thanks for the links jumping ahead for a moment rockinrobby busted me and caught on to the fact that I'm using a Les Paul in a few places Kenny

Sorry to hear about the accident, but it's good to hear you're on the mend. Well, there was certainly nothing broken on this tune. This was a really enjoyable listen for me: loved your selection of lines and tones... flawless playing. You had that Tele sounding like a Gibson L-5 at points, and, yeah, you were playing it like it was too. Really nicely done. Good to have you back, and looking forward to hearing more.
