Hi there—
Try playing along with this—
Gm to F
Fm to Eb
Ebm to Db
And back to C
And yes, it’s a Harmonetta.

It’s better if you can loop it!

Sounds kinda familiar. Are we sposta guess what is, or make up a melody to go with those cool chords? (it would definitely make it easier to play if'n I knew what it was that y'all wuzza playin' thar, knowwhutImean?)

Someone else (Neil Adler?) might be able to place it as being from an existing song.
It's a ii-V-I exercise, the new I becomes ii.
The bridge to Cherokee is like this, except it's C#m F# B, Bm E7 A, Am D G, Gm C Cm F
My progression resolves to the original tonality in C.
My feeling is that ii-V-I progressions proceeding to another a whole step down are a common jazz progression, e.g. How High the Moon.

Edit:Bluesette, duh!

Another old noodle.
Disclaimer: not a real song.

Ha ha! Strangely reminiscent of some kinda sci-fi sound track.

Kewll!

I'm using an 8 second analog delay, when you change the length of the loop, the pitch changes.
So at one point, I shift up to the IV chord--but it's hit or miss, adds to the fun.

Diamond Dust on chromatic—one time thru.
Backing track is on a laptop.

Not sure what that was, but I liked it.

In My Room.
But not the whole tune yet.
But 8 bars— what do you want for nothing, rubber biscuit?

It’s time to play “spot the clam“.

SlideMeister · « **Reply #85 on:** November 29, 2021, 04:26:08 PM »

Ha Ha! Kewl! "Jungle bells, Santa smells, Rudolph laid an egg" at least that's the way I learned it when I wuzza kid.

Oh yeah, farkles at 25 and 44

Maiden Voyage, just the chords, one time thru, on Harmonetta.

Gnarly He Man · « **Reply #87 on:** December 01, 2021, 10:54:04 PM »

Here it is with the melody—no vibrato, so I’m a little flat.

SlideMeister · « **Reply #88 on:** December 02, 2021, 02:09:14 AM »
