In The Jam: Robben Ford Sessions

Pack a bag and bring a dozen extra sets of strings because this extraordinarily immersive Robben Ford Sessions edition of In The Jam will take you places you’ve never been before. Pull your time travel suit out of the closet to start your learning adventure back on Friday, October 27th of 2013, in one of Nashville’s premier recording studios, Sound Kitchen. You’re in the Big Boy room with Robben, Wes Little on drums, Brian Allen on bass, Trombone monster Barry Green, Ricky Peterson on B3 organ, and Audley Freed on rhythm guitar. You’re up-front and center as Robben leads these five all-star musicians through nine bluesy, soulful tunes — all tracked live in one day! Then you head off across town to the famous House of Blues Studios, where Robben and co-producer Rick Wheeler lay down vocals and guitar tracks for each of the tunes. The resulting highly acclaimed Day In Nashville album “proves yet again why guitar geeks flock to his shows and hang on his every note” and why Robben is one of the most gifted songwriters of our times. Witnessing the creative process, observing how the band interacts, and looking over Robben’s shoulder as he artfully weaves it all together is an unprecedented educational experience all on its own. But that’s just the start of your learning journey and so keep your gear handy as you head south to TrueFire’s studios where Robben records all new rhythm and lead parts for each of the songs, all with close-up views so you don’t miss a thing. Now pull out that guitar of yours and jump in the mix. In fact, control the mix anyway you like. Mute, solo, or adjust the volume of any track as you see and hear fit. You’ve got over six hours of multi-angle video tracks to choose from, along with all of the separate audio tracks to mix with. Play rhythm to Robben’s vocals and lead parts. Or take on the lead guitar parts. Or mute Robben’s vocals and sing your heart out. In fact, whatever instrument you play; bass, drums, keys, horns or vocals — there’s a mix that’s perfect for you. When your fingers start bleeding, take a break and tune into Robben and Rick Wheeler’s full-length commentaries as they share priceless insight about the production process. You’ll also get to meet the band and hear their perspectives about this remarkable project. Robben has generously included all of the album’s EPKs. Plus, all of the guitar parts recorded at TrueFire are tabbed and notated so you can drill down on exactly what Robben is playing. Practice smart, play hard — get the Robben Ford Sessions edition of In The Jam!
