Album Notes

'The way' is a guitar instrumental dedicated to my uncle Christopher John Harris who passed away in 2006 from stomach cancer. Chris certainly lived his life his way and I wrote and performed the song as a tribute to my dad's brother very shortly after his passing. The music was recorded using a vintage Fender Stratocaster (1962) and Les Paul Classic (1960) guitars, Marshall amp, Neumann microphone, sansamp processor and waves/korg/cubase plugins. The instrumental was recorded over numerous sessions in April 2006 at the Funky Fingers studios in Barking Essex and mixed at the Funky Bunker studio in teh Algarve Portugal. The riff pattern swaps between the two vintage guitars which aim to replicate two different guitar players delivering the track late at night in a smoky blues club.
