Bottled Lightning (Eclectic Collective) by Rich O'Brien published on 2024-01-12T21:18:33Z Cast of characters: RIch O'Brien-- @rich-obrien -- composition, intro guitar solo TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen– third guitar solo J.J. Terrell–@j-j-terrell -- Clave and organ K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken–drums, production, and mix Llanpsych–@llanpsych –Tez–final guitar solo Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1–four-string fretless bass and second guitar solo This song started as a full composition on all instruments by Rich. He asked Josh if he'd be interested in a collaboration with it. Josh jumped at the chance to share it with the Eclectic Collective. So, he invited the gang to join in, replacing most of the original instrumentation, and adding some new. After Ken had added his driving, foundational drums, Josh added his bass to match. JJ soon after cranked up the funk-o-meter by adding his clave and screaming organ. Then, Josh added a guitar solo, which comes in right after Rich's intro. Stephen was up next with his badass licks in the third solo. Then Tez got a hold of it, and ripped a hole in the ether with his guitar in the last solo. Ken was generous enough to produce and mix this for us. And what an outstanding job he did, too. We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed making it.
