Heartwarming to read all your comments about my old music and performance from 1987. Using both hands and both feet, there were at least three layers under instant whimsical control: the straight Stick strings, Patch of Shades wah with effects, and a Yamaha TX7 orchestra controlled by a very early Commodore computer for sustained instrumental accompaniment.
There were no "freeze" pedals then, only reverb which I later tried to disguise into an orchestral "sweetener" sustaining selected RH melody notes and intervals. Freeze is what I always heard in my head, escaping the rhythm limitations of echoes and loops. Ahhh, now I have "Big Sky" and the stratosphere is my limit.
Many thanks again, also to Greg for remixing some questionable audio. More song arrangements with improvs from that '80s session coming soon.
Hell, yeah! Let's hear it for the Commodore!
I still got my 64... I hook it up every so often to play cheesy video games, which are just as entertaining as the newfangled ones.
