The Scepter (video) The Scepter (audio) Here's our second song for the year...perhaps a bit of a double entendre. I was experimenting around with electric rhythm RT's for the tune, tried an amp sim on one, and Janice said it reminded her of an older Johnny Depp movie (Dead Man) for which the entire sound track consisted of just Neil Young on guitar. I mentioned it to Peter and like magic I shortly received some very much Neil Young inspired guitar solo tracks. Thank you Peter! We both always appreciate your time to listen and comments are most welcome. The SC file is the latest mix but you might also find the video of some interest. Janice: Vocal / Nectar 2 PeterF: Lead guitar / Telecaster(1st solo only) / Les Paul / Native Instruments Guitar Rig 5 / Marshal emulation /additional distortion and delay / Cakewalk Sonar. Bass: RT 1036 NorthernRockBallad / Izotope Neutron Drums: RD Blues Rock Slow (crash cymbal doubled): Neutron / 140 EMT reverb sim Shakers: Logic Pro X / Logic Pro Platinum Reverb Electric guitar rhythm: RT 832 AltCountryMoody DI / Logic Pro “Black & Blue" Amp Sim / Neutron / 140 EMT Reverb Sim Acoustic Guitar: RT 1676 Fingerpicking CountryBrent / Neutron / 140 EMT Reverb sim Accordion: RT 1757 / Logic Pro Overdrive / Neutron / EMT 140 Reverb Sim The audio was mixed and mastered in Logic Pro X. The photos are public domain and we're edited using multiple apps. The video was created with iMovie.

This is really nice. A great song and excellent collaboration. Something new and a bit different from this collaboration but it is top notch on every level. I enjoyed this a lot. Outstanding.

Already listened to this over on soundcloud a week or so ago, so checked out the video this time.
Neat song! As I said over on soundcloud it is cool hearing you guys take on different types of material. Janice is great and I really like Peters contribution also, he nailed that Neil Young vibe!

J&B,
Several very enjoyable listens.
The SoundCloud mix is sharper adding some more bite to an incendiary song... but some of the images in the video are really powerful so its well worth checking both.
The guitar is spine tingling good but my favourite moment in the song is the bridge and Janice`s tender vocal there.
Great work!
Robert

Hello, Janice & Bud and Peter
Very nice rock song with blues feeling.
It is very impressive the melody that goes back and forth between E minor key and G major key.
As Scott said, super collaboration. Super vocal and super guitar.
Very enjoyable listen.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi

Great moody song with excellent vocals, one of the best I've heard from you. Fantastic guitars and they blend nicely with the accordion.

Sounds totally pro, radio ready. Love the artwork. Who did that??? Thanks David. Those comments are much appreciated. For all our videos, photos, etc., I use only public domain photos (or occasionally mine) and then edit them with a variety of apps so that they will hopefully work together. Sometimes I create overlays, etc., but always try to introduce some sense of unity amongst them. Thank you for mentioning it! It often takes longer to find the "right" photos and edit them than to put the whole video together. J&B

Janice, Bud & Peter,
Wow! This is really fantastic - love the dark vibe of this song and Janice's delivery vs. Peter's guitar tone is outrageously cool.
Loved everything about it!
