Description
Mandoline and harmony vocals - Björna
Guitar and lead vocals - Johannes
This is a take for diggers of real life raw jamming. An unplanned jam with my friend Björna.
It starts out just as simple jamming and later transfigures into Shady Groove. A song we both know.
Matters of curiosity:
- This is the first time I post something including a "real life" friend of mine.
- Singing is a very new thing for me to dare. Have not been singing much at all in my life.
- The mikes have caught some strange miss-sound here and there, it is very live, just a living room.
The situation:
We were to attend a friends birthday party later that night, where we also were asked to contribute with music (the photo was taken on that party). Before the party when we were gathering in my house, I had the recording gear ready and set up in the living room since Björna never say no to a jam (and these jams never become dull).
So when he arrived with his mandoline I just had to push the record button and let the recording roll. Actually Björna never understood that the recording was already on when we did this. (Now of course he do, and is agreeing to this MJ-posting).
History:
The combination Björna and me have not been playing much together at all. We started out jamming together for a few times in a music café, and thereafter Björna asked me to join in for two café gigs backing his songs. A few jams, then two gigs, and now a birthday party, that's what we have done together so far.
I hope more will come. As Björna so aptly puts it; we were "moving in the same musical landscape".
If you have done the experience of jamming .. and you don't have to talk much about the music .. you just play it .. and it works .. then you know how fun this can be.
The song:
Very traditional. I don't know much about it. But when I've tried so search internet for lyrics I am getting several different sets of lyrics. Guess that's a hallmark of traditional songs.

I love this relaxed jamming blend of the guitar and mondolin. Hey, Curry, you should sing more often. What a treat! :-)
