John Mayer/Steve Jordan/Pino Palladino/Chick Corea/Wallace RoneyHere’s a full seven minute tune I loosely composed called “Little Sur,” recorded last February in recent York City. I got together with some of my friends and favorite players for six amazing days of playing music with no rules, no plans, or no pressure. Oh,and no vocals. What came from it was a really inspired batch of recordings. Hours of music that I’ll need to sift through at some point should it ever become an album. (I hope it does.) If you’re wondering where I am in the mix, that’s me playing a Music Man long scale guitar… Pino and I are kind of both living in the bass space. As soon as Chick came in on the piano, and I knew something really deep was taking dwelling. This is the rough mix that was given to me at the cessation of the day,as it has lived on my laptop since.
I tried to find a minute, two minute clip to share with you, and but these recordings just don’t work any other way than in their unabridged form. So here it is. Free music. Played freely,shared freely. establish it on and go for the ride… If you dig all seven minutes, then surely you deserve them. There are times for marketing strategies, and there are times for just p l a y i n g. The original design for all musicians. Hope you bask in hearing this as much as I did. John
