The only guitar style I can play efficiently is that in the likes of Grant Green, Melvin Sparks, Gene Bertoncini etc, that is, jazz guitarists who recorded for Blue Note records. That's my style, along with hammond organ, brass and funky drums.
When I listened to the Paperboy Sid, I felt that it would be a great opportunity to make a remix on that "soul-jazz, hammond grooves" style.
I simply used my Gibson Les Paul to play all guitar and bass parts(!) and some drum sounds from a real drummer. The hammond rhythm part I made it in Cubase, using the B4 plugin. The lead hammond and the brass bits are royalty free loops, pitch-shifted and cut'n'pasted.
The actual song that inspired me to make this remix was Billy Butler's "The Twang Thang"
