NEW Album!
Hello everybody!
In the previous post "About Me and NEW Album," I provided information about myself and briefly mentioned a new album. Here is some more information regarding the latest album.
The third album is an instrumental rock album titled "Eclipse" and is planned to feature bass guitar, electric and acoustic guitars, and drums. I plan on purchasing an electronic drum set in the near future for recording purposes relating to this album and future releases. I have owned 2 acoustic drum kits in the past, but I am in a living situation currently where an acoustic set is not an option at this time.
"Eclipse" is already into the writing process and will also feature new fingerstyle guitar techniques I have learned in recent months that are not featured on any of my previous recordings. In two months I will be taking a week-long paid vacation from work; It is during this time that I plan to commence into the recording and production stages for my third album.
This latest album will be completely unique to the two albums I recorded in 2009 and of much better quality and taste. I have been practicing and writing new material for this album [almost] everyday for the past five years, including other side projects.
Like, Comment, and Subscribe via YouTube at JPageFan71, or you can follow me on Twitter @PageFan71. Stay tuned and thank you always for reading my posts and watching the videos!
More information will be provided shortly. This is a band that WON'T be breaking up anytime soon!

About Me & NEW Album!
Hello everyone!
I would like to give an introduction of myself for those who do not know me. I am a musician from Kentucky, U.S.A. I work a full-time job at a local Factory.
I received my first electric guitar in 2008 as a Christmas present. I have never taken a lesson (apart from browsing YouTube occasionally). Guitar has grown to be a passion of mine over the years, as well as reading, writing, and spending time with the family.
In 2009 I recorded 2 albums of guitar instrumentals for fun as a side project. The albums, titled "Official Schwartz" and "The Man, The Myth, The Legend," are available via the respective playlists on my Blog (see posts "Album #1" and "Album #2"), or on my YouTube channel (JPageFan71). The title of the latter album is an inside joke rather than an egotistical proclamation of an amateur quality album.
In 2010 I turned of legal age of employment in my state and I acquired a job. Working, school, and personal reasons have hindered me in the past 5 years from recording as much as I would have liked to. The videos that I have recorded from 2010 to Present are all available on my Blog and YouTube as well.
However, all that is about to change with a NEW album in the works. More information on that will be made available soon!

Original Song [Full Band] [2011]
In the previous post "Album #2," I provided via Youtube an instrumental guitar album that I completed in October 2009. In 2011, I took the opening track of the 2009 album-- "Album Intro [Inst. #16]" and added Bass Guitar and Drums to the song. The final version is provided below.
In the post "Album #1," I provided via Youtube an instrumental guitar album that I completed in March 2009. Keep in mind that both of these albums were made in the first year of my guitar playing. I have never taken a lesson and have taught myself from the beginning, "with a little help from my friends" along the way.
Newer videos can be found on my Blog or at JPageFan71 on Youtube. Like, Comment, Subscribe, and most importantly: Enjoy!

Status Quo- Big Fat Mama Cover
A cover version of the rock song "Big Fat Mama" by the band Status Quo with both guitar solos included. The video features two guitars-- the main guitar is shown as an enlarged PIP (picture-in-picture) while the rhythm guitar is pictured as the main video. Both guitars are recorded and played by Alexander Schwartz. All music written by Francis Rossi and Rick Parfitt.
"Big Fat Mama" is the fifth song on the fifth studio album by British rock group Status Quo released on December 15, 1972. Although the song was not released as a single, the album was commercially successful in the United Kingdom where it reached #5 in the charts and spent a total of 37 weeks there.
Please note that the audio mix between the two guitars was disoriented during the uploading process and viewers should exercise caution when using headphones. I apologize for the inconvenience. Also, the song cover is not intended to be exactly note for note and I did make a couple of mistakes. I am only human after all and a self-taught musician who has never taken a lesson.
Both videos were recorded via a Logitech USB Microphone plugged into a MacBook Pro and edited with YouTube Editor. The guitar featured in both videos are a Samick Avion AV6 Greg Bennett Design Electric Guitar played through a VOX Valvetronix VT15 Combo Amplifier.

Original Guitar Solo (G Minor Pentatonic)
An original guitar solo video for rock music including a rhythm guitar audio track. All music written, recorded, and produced by Alexander Schwartz; 2015.
The video features two guitars-- the rhythm guitar [audio track] is playing a repeated chord progression using the power chords G5, Bb5, and C with a few pull-offs from the 2nd string to the 1st string at various points. The lead guitar [video] is playing a guitar solo using mainly the G Minor Pentatonic Scale in different locations across the fretboard.
The guitar solo is an improvisation and two takes were recorded on June 14, 2015, the last take being the video featured here. The rhythm guitar was recorded in one take. Please note that I did not intend the solo to be exactly note for note in accordance with the G Minor Pentatonic Scale and that I did make some mistakes. I am only human after all and a self-taught musician who has never taken a lesson.
Both the video and audio were recorded via a Nady SP-5 USB Microphone plugged into a MacBook Pro and edited with iMovie. The guitar featured in both the audio and video is a Samick Avion AV6 Greg Bennett Design Electric Guitar played through a Marshall DSL15H/MX-212 Tube Amplifier.
