One-take live overlay of me playing on top of Jimmy Page's masterful Bron-Yr-Aur (from Physical Graffiti). Intended as a sincere tribute. I hope I can merely echo or reflect a tiny part of the beauty he created. With all honor and respect to the living legend.

My 1st post-op electric guitar session. This is what my heart sounded like as it began reacclimating to the land of the living and expecting to stay that way. It was a little strange to play while occasionally openly weeping but it felt good. 

I finally captured this 8 minute bit after jamming along these lines for maybe 30-40 minutes. There is way too much "dry" signal in the mix, since I just put my iphone on top of the monitor and hit record w/ the phone mic pointing towards the strings at roughly chest height.

I don't think there's much clipping, but the levels are all off too, which is unsurprising given I used the iPhone Voice Memos.app instead of real music recording equipment.

Technical Notes:
