... the feeling

After much deliberation, I have decided to share this song with you. 

I wrote it after I didn't like myself because I had started to shift the focus that was important in my music making. It's not about whether something is good or bad, it's about evoking emotions and feelings or delivering a message. If you don't have the right feeling in, you will never catch other people's feelings. 

When you listen to a song, it's never about whether it's good or bad, but only about whether you can arouse other people's emotions. Desire to dance is one feeling, flying away to a paradise is another. The one who once upon a time taught me all the right values in life ​​was my dear mother, her favorite flower was lily of the valley. Thank you little dear mother.

I love hearing if I did catch a feeling or what you liked or disliked about it, rather than that you just liked it or not.

Enjoy

"My dear friend Frano has been playing music since he was a little child and has led a dedicated life encouraged by his wonderful family. I have observed his amazing abilities evolving into a force of nature that hits like a velvet sledgehammer in the heart and soul of all who see and hear him play." - Tommy Emmanuel, CGP

Oud Awwad - Hotel California (Arabic Oud)

I enjoy composing, arranging and recording music on an ever-expanding array of guitars, especially Fender electrics and Martin acoustics.  My musical journey began more than half a century ago, and every day brings new opportunities for continued growth as a musician.  My current leading influences include Jim Campilongo, Scotty Anderson and Guthrie Trapp.  I love Beethoven, Keith Richards, Henry Mancini, Aretha Franklin and a thousand others whose music has brought me joy, whether for many decades or for a few minutes.  I strive to learn something from every piece of music that I hear, and to make music that others will enjoy hearing.

I'm an amateur DIYer in terms of recording, doing everything in my music space at home and learning as I go.  I enjoy experimenting with a variety of microphones and mic placements, recording into a Zoom R16 and using Audacity as my DAW.  I use an array of Fender tube amps, all blackface/silverface reissues, and a modest pedal board.  I record acoustic instruments either with condenser microphones directly on the instruments or else amped through a Fishman Loudbox Mini.
