Lockdown Licks no. 196 “Cloudy Day” by JJ Cale. Intro solo. Played on an HB35+ guitar set to neck humbucker into a NUX M8 amp on clean with slight reverb.
JJ had an understated style which was however full of catchy riffs and chord phrasings.
On a looper pedal I recorded the 4 chord pattern starting in C#m(7) F#m7 G#m, Am(7). Then I played the solo with the chords from the looper backing me.
“Cloudy Day” is an instrumental from JJs 70s classic “Shades” Album. As well as sweet guitar it features a soaring saxophone during the tune.
