I'm a joker, I'm a smoker...

Here's my rendition of Steve Miller's, "The Joker".

I kind of ran out of ideas in the major scale for the solo so I started playing in the blues scale; I think it worked nicely.

Thanks for the listen.

your vocals are way better than they used to be... improv sounds a little sloppy to me though

Solid man, really I enjoyed that. The guitar work is standout. The interplay between the lead and the acoustic is great.

Voice sounds good, you hit all the key notes to pull that song off.

I actually like the recording, it has that kind of M. Ward lo-fi sound to it. Good for you getting the best sound out of what you got.
