For anyone interested check out my um myspace. http://www.myspace.com/imamonkeyman

I am playing the bass with Led Zeppelin. I took a great sounding live Trampled Underfoot, and overdubbed me playing the bass. This really works great because on this song,John Paul Jones in on the Clavinet. The recording also lacks the bass line he would have added using Taurus Pedals. This set up for a really great version to do this as well. I would love to get feedback on this. There are a few mistakes as I am just going along as best I could. I am using my Epic through a J-Station into Cool Edit Pro. You can also certainly check out my other songs. Trampled Underfoot is listed as Trampled Overdubbed. Please tell me what you think. BTW you really get a feel for playing with a great drummer by doing this. :-)

Wade, that's pretty cool, overdubbing you onto their recordings. I'm not very knowledgeable about the gear you need for this sort of thing but the Epic sounds good through it.

You're welcome. Before lessons, that's how I learned to play...play along with the record. I guess I'm dating myself with that comment, LOL!

Yeah me too, but then these digital mutitrackers and digital modeling preamps came out. Its great. I used to do this years ago with a 4 track and a led boot on record. It wasn't as clean as you can get now. Plus, when it is a live album you’re truly getting the experience.
