Born 2 B Wild Completed


Got the final mix done on my cover of Born To Be Wild. Put the slow fade out in the end - dialed the levels back a wee bit for clairity. I think I may have finaled it with a preset even . .

In the spirit of Steppenwolf I played the solo with a slide too. I saw them play on PBS recently and thats what the dude was using. More trippy that way I guess. .

your slide playing is excellent mate. it definately sounds more like the finished areticle than the last time I heard it. I love the ending too! Great version (Don't remember the guns bit in the original though )

Some great slide playing there PJ. John Kay is a great slide player, and when they got back together, he took over lead duties, and plays a lot of slide. I prefer the original lyrics, a little more hippy dippy, love and flowers, but hey, that's just me, cool job.

Wow...very original take on this.... was'nt real sure about that flangy delay thing on what I imagine was supposed to be the keyboard rythym parts , but after another listen, it fits in pretty well..... well done!

Nice production here Pj! Always liked Steppenwolf since i grew up on listening to their stuff. your slide playing really stuck out to me more so than anything in this track.. Dam nice tone and playing of that slide!!!! Vocals were really good also. Nice job again man! Now it's time for you to take a "Magic Carpet Ride" with this one my friend!

Damn that's some sweet distortion on the guitar!! I remember this one and love it even more now...(is this the tune you said you did vocals to in a car..?) The slide is supreme playing!! Excellent!! So that mixed with the sweet tone...it's just killer!! Outstanding job man.

Thanks for listening to my music everyone

It means a lot.

Sorry about changing the words to the origional there a "wee" bit. Just havin' a little old "Iron Range" fun is all. . Yeah I did sing it in my car Mr. Fingers, thanks for remembering bro.
Nice ears JPF. I controlled the speed of the phaser with the pedal - assigned the speed param to the pedal travel. (GNX1) Like a keyboard player would with thier vibrato speed slider. Except I used my foot.

Exactly why I used it Psy good ear on that one bro - a lot of keyboards seem to have phaser "like" effects on them a lot of the time.
