It's off the album "Cal" which was the theme music for the movie of the same name about a Catholic in Northern Island who falls in love with a Protestant woman at the same time as his mates get him involved in IRA activities. Great music by Knopfler which sets a mood for this movie, similar to the way he did for "Local Hero" which is my all time favourite movie. |

Couple of questions...
Which guitar were you using on that track?
And you may have mentioned this in another thread but, what's your recording setup? |

Location: big island | hi steve,
in the window that opens for the sound clip, there is a link, "full song info". if you click on that you will see the info i have included which covers the questions you asked. short story: i am playing the 1978 adamas 1 1687-9 i recently got on eBay. plugged into my zoom a2.1u pedal on bank B / patch 0 / default settings. the audio was captured via usb from the pedal using roxio's easy media creator v.9
(i'm having a few issues with the lexicon omega unit and have not been able to use it yet. i visited their support site and found numerous folks having the same problems. class-action lawsuit may be forthcoming.) |

Location: Orlando, FL | Thanks Randy. I just checked out the full song info. Looks like you're doing really well on the charts on Soundclick, #33 out of 103,302 songs listed in acoustic!
Looks like lots of people are digging your tune! Now if each of them buys an OFC CD... |
