The gypsy things are coming along. I've decided to do a minor version of the main theme as the missing link between the slow one ane the "full-pelter" as it's become known. The full-pelter features two rhythm guitars pomping out la pompe and an overdubbed solo and awaits an upright bass overdub from my flaky bandmate. That should do it I think.
The minor swing version was played a bit slower with much simplified minor chords and added dramatic stops (in order to frame punchlines in the dialogue). That was recorded without a click and just one rhythm guitar. It alternates between minor key melody, some guitar widdles and a none-more-French melodica motif. I need to nail that tonight really. Time's a wasting.
Then it's just mix and i'll be done.
