For all fans of the late, great Paco De Lucia. This guy does an incredible tribute ....

Display MoreFirst Course was his first album and one of the first true-fusion albums ever. Great organic sound on that one.
Wes Bound was his tribute to Wes and boasts superb playing from Lee along with incredibly-engineered sounds and mixes. Superb.
Three brilliant tracks from First Course:
Check out Steve and Abe's work on the title track from Captain Fingers. This work became a part of me back in the '80s. Timeless and an absolute classic IMHO. Lee's soloing isn't too-shabby either:
My first encounter was First Course and we used to play 'Wild Rice' (named after his wife, I believe) Aside from his smooth guitar work, it was a revelation to hear the work of Dave Grusin who I have long since admired .... Here, the two of them play 'Mountain Dance'

Sometimes YouTube (or rather some great folks posting there) gives us hidden gems of incredible power... came across that only yesterday but I am still blown away. What talent on stage there...
Such dynamics ... Truly, Masters at work ....

Nice Celtic influence and sweet vib

I agree about Connors and he had a great sound. He certainly shone on Hymn of the 7th Galaxy.

Elegant Gypsy was my first introduction to Al Di Meola way back in the early 80’s. Still struggling to learn Race With Devil properly up to tempo. The lick at 1:04 is part of the reason I have knackered my elbows 🤕 but it has been fun trying 😆
I first heard him with Return to Forever shortly after replacing Bill Connors, and though I wasn't initially impressed with his sound, his technical prowess was evident. For me, his acoustic playing is where he really shines, and in such distinguished company that's no mean feat ....

That Bass on Stratus ...
-
Here they are live. Unfortunately no close-ups of his current FX but in still fine form ... after all, he learnt a lot of his trade from the man himself
-
Apparently it was a Big Muff and Maestro Phase Shifter according to Tonto's Expanding Headband who were working with them at the time
They were also working with Stevie Wonder on what would become Innervisions.

In the same spirit ... live from a UK TV show in 1986
-
My favourite as I'm a big EWF fan. The horn players do it justice
-
Wow ! That Chicago cover really was excellent! ....
Those guys over there in Ukraine (especially musicians) have a hard life so all the more kudos to them for achieving that detail and sound

Display MoreThe one thing the KPA can't do, is profile time-based effects, no reverb or delay, unfortunately. Only the tone could be profiled, then the other channel would have to be recreated inside the KPA, using built-in effects. I'm not that good.
The cab is included in the tone on the right channel (with a bit of reverb), it should be just like profiling a combo amp but without any of the effects, the profile would be flat and rather lifeless though.
lento1234567 , have you tried your CE-1 in the KPA effects loop?

No, unfortunately I didn't. I got an offer I couldn't refuse
I still have a CE-2 somewhere though ...How does the CE-1 compare with the Kemper's versions ?
-
The Rockman chorus sound is especially good. I used to have an 8 module rack of them until a few years ago and would have liked to profile various combinations thereof ....
The stereo chorus module was even more lush than my CE-1 ....
-
The deluxe, especially ....
-
Chick Corea and his wonderful array of musicians that are all virtuosos in their own right.
-
Brent Mason and Johnny Hiland (not forgetting Albert Lee, of course), these guys have such a masterful picking technique you could put them on the most sterile-sounding profile and they'd make it sound good ....
-
The Fulltone Clyde Deluxe pedal has a good "Shaft" preset (along with a "Wacker" and "Jimi") and I uploaded white noise profiles quite a while back.
Try looking in the thread about Wah settings or the like on here .....

Always a favourite of mine, too.
Of his more commercial outings, Weekend In LA was also 'cooking' ....
