        Here’s a one guitar, one voice short recording using a very basic Robert Johnson style fingerpicking with classic RJ turn a round (various AM lessons). Wait for it …

              Well Matt, I liked and enjoyed both tracks but if I heard that delay correctly, I’m not sure they went together. It seemed like Robert Johnson meets Sasha/Digweed, all good performers but best heard and enjoyed separately.

                For me its the Robert Johnson I would like to hear. It sounded like nice instrumental but muddied by the rest for my listening.

                  Yes, I agree, experimenting a bit

                    Hi Richard and JohnSrtat, your feedback was helpful. For the vocals I replaced the long delay for a much shorter one, brightened it a up bit and brought down the volume. The panned L & R guitar picking is now much clearer …
