Just needs vox in a blusey style, I'd remove the Piano, The Hammond is nice.
Oh and work on the end
I bet you have a few more like this, don't by shy, upload them, or even suggets a collab
well , it is made for practising piano and guitar, and the end is far from near.
About collab? anyone is invited to ask for any of the backingtracks,
and indeed i do have 8 other versions you dont want to hear, trust me :p
tnx for responding denis, i wish i had your discipline and you had my creativity (at the moment)
Nice exercise in a minor-chord blues. It sounds like it was created to give you some practice on the various instruments (the instruments almost clash as they compete for attention. This can get a little distracting, but on the other hand maybe there's a place for raucous blues!). You do squeeze out some righteous guitar runs during this thing. You obviously have something to say, know what I mean?

"so its nót me alone , and thats why i end up with all those noodles. LOL
Anyway, when i get stuck in the creative process i tend to put down any instrument and and start humming or whistling for a melody, so something else comes out then my fingers already know, i just got this as a tip myself once and it helps me.
but who need advice from 'sir Dabble-a-lot'
There´s no universal way to create music . Everyone has found his own way to compose .
When I started I did similar like you did it on this piece : I packed a lot of stuff into every single track ´til the point of "overload" . My pieces were 10 , 12 , 14 min. long . I had "a lot to say " at this time .
After a while I realized that less is more and began to concentrate to what I´d like to express and bringing it into an "understandable" form ..
Seems you have many ideas , scetches , "daddles", spots and ´blueprints`inya mind . You just gottta find the
right elements and extract ´em into a logical order .
When you´re working on a part of a piece ( f.e. a git solo ) don´t be satisfied with ya first attempt / record .
Be only satisfied when you´re thinking it´s perfect .(in your ears)
If it needs 20 takes to perfection it will need 20 takes . And when it needs 40 takes play it 40 times .
Record in sequences . 8 measures here , 16 measures there . So you´ve always the option to change or re-record something .
Hope this helps to find your way to compose .
Keep daddling

actually you made me thinking about with your minor-chord remark.., so i checked.
I played minor on piano's, but the guitar is playing a major scale,and the organ is playing Em Am Bmajor same time.
Now..,is this what we call bluesy or is it just wrong?? i think its allowed to solo with major and minor changes but both chords same time?
:p
anyone?

I thought I detected a bit of dissonance. There is some definite dissonance between the Minor chord work in the piano and organ and the major scale work on the rhythm guitar (Bass?) To be honest it is a little distracting.(it sounds like two different tunes are being played at the same time). What I might suggest is to do a very similar rhythm guitar pattern but use a minor scale instead. The guitar lead work sounds fine to me (in fact in most places you're using minor scales in both the guitar and piano leads) I believe it works to use a minor scale lead pattern over a major scale chord pattern in blues, but not the other way around.
hey battlecat, i seemed to have missed this post till now. Tnx for input, i know now where it went wrong, you are absolutely right.
the rhytm guitar is doing a major riff and i followed that with the bass here and there, so the minor piano chords must be the problem ao.
And so i learned something
tnx srm2888
