I would have put this in the Players forum, but there are only BKs on one section of the song (not intentional, just worked out that way).
I am writing quite a big progressive rock piece at the mo; this is Part Three; I hope you enjoy (those who can endure the entire thing) ... no vox yet (still looking for a singer at this time).
Well, here is the latest section of the big prog piece. Enjoy!

very nice. like the solos that start around the 8m30 minute mark. is it composed, or improv? slide part very Blackmore

Thanks!
The drums and base guitar parts were written in 2 hours and this is the 3rd take. Just played straight through, no punching.
The solos were all written by jamming over each section and I kept my favourite takes. Pseudo comp'd I suppose.
Synth parts were written after the rhythm guitars were built up.
Then tracked bass. Solos were last.
