A Reggae CBG Compilation would be cool!

Sounds like fun!

Awesome! Again approach this without trepidation, I know alot of you guys are still workin out the reggae beat but it would be a great way for us to work on getting the vibes down together. share recordings, and eventually pump out an awesome final project.

Great feel on that recording Konstantin - very authentic.

 

Hell yeah Id be up for a compilation. Who else?

Alright I know this is a shot in the dark but what if we started working on a Reggae CBG compilation??? We could do like what some of the other groups on CBN are doing and just collect a variety of self recordings and bundle them together to share with friends. Would anyone be down to try?

Comment by Cris Portillo Jr. on February 28, 2011 at 8:51am

roosterman,

i'm in Quebec, Canada, sorry i wish i was in France, i've just checked the member map and we are about 10 to 20 members in Canada, so i guest our first CBG fest is still far far away :D

thanks for understanding me Roosterman !!!

Peace to everyone !!!

If you transpose that C/G/Am/F chord pattern to G/D/Em/C then it's really easy on something with a banjo-type tuning (DGBD). Mento anyone?
