A mess of guitar... (blues, house, instrumental, rock, Atmosphere)

I spent a couple hours just recording over various tracks. Mostly everything is a first take, and I was honestly stoned at the time, so there's more then a lot of rough parts, but there's definitely parts I like too. Just to give you an idea of what kind of guitar I play, my biggest guitar influence by far is David Gilmour. Some of my other favorite guitarists are Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jeff Healey, Carlos Santana, Philip Sayce, Eric Clapton, Joe Bonamassa, Robert Cray, Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page and George Harrison.

This is actually just an 80's-esque rock backing track. Don't get me wrong, I don't make 80's type music, but the tracks can be good just as chord progressions and atmospheres to play over. This was the first thing I did and was probably by far the messiest. There's mistakes and guitar noise everywhere, but there's some good parts in there. It is a tad long though.

This is actually the same track, but the playing isn't quite as sloppy as the first time around. They're both an improv, so they're different too of course.

This is a blues track, though it's not me soloing the whole time. The solos I do in the track so far start at 1:14 and 4:41. I do plan to fill in the rest of the spots, but I just haven't done it yet.

I'll have more to post, but I just thought I'd start with a couple. I hope you enjoy. (I know this isn't 100% the right section, but it's just instrumental guitar, so I wasn't sure.
