Ben E King died a few days ago so here's remembering him and the great music he brought us. Played on bari CB uke, shaker and looped CB bass.

Oh yeah, Mom's are great! I need to work up a Mother's Day song for this weekend.

Yup Maddog the Ditto is I'm using and I'm waiting for my Ditto X2 which has a dedicated start/stop button. I get mixed up with the required button pushes on the one button one. You've gotta double click to stop the loop and that messes me up!

Comment by Maddog on May 5, 2015 at 12:15pm

That's cool Jim, Mom's are great! :-)

I've got a Boss RC-2 and a Ditto, the Ditto has 1 button on it.........still to complicated for me  :-(

Thanks Maddog. My Mom played piano in jazz bands in the 50's and 60's and when they did a Latin number she stuck a maraca in each hand between her fingers and played. So I thank her for the idea!

Yeah, it took a while with the looper but I'm having enough fun with it that I've ordered the next, slightly more complicated one. We'll see how that goes.

Loved it Jim!

And the rattle with the wristband is pure genius! :-)

Loop sounds really good! I have not mastered the art of the looper yet, but then again I haven't really put much effort into it yet either :-/
