Its weird to think about the fact that "Elevated Jam Tracks" is probably the guitar player I have listened to the most just from sitting and jamming a video or two a day
@@wilhorne4881 I’ll look it up! Thanks! I feel you about the church thing. I dislike church, I feel like people try to make it more about them, or the service than worshiping God. I’d rather a few good friends come over and worship that way.
Painfully beautiful track. And the tone on the solo is up there with the best - sensational. You're a great player in your own right, Tom. Hopefully you put it to some good use with a band or otherwise. Thank you for these tracks once again my friend!
Here’s the complete version of the song: “For the Better” [Verse 1] We grew up in one house, under one sky, Shared laughter and love as the years flew by. The walls that held us are starting to change, And life is calling in a different way. [Pre-Chorus] It’s not just one thing, it’s everything now, Time’s moving forward, we’re learning how. [Chorus] Change is a good thing, though it feels so strange, It’s the way we grow, through all the change. Family’s forever, no matter the road, We carry the love that makes us whole. It’s happening this way, for the better, we’ll see, Change is a good thing, let it set us free. [Verse 2] The house looks different; it’s not how it was, The rooms feel smaller, the years left their marks. But every crack and corner holds what we’ve done, A piece of our story in everyone. [Pre-Chorus] We’re not losing anything, we’re finding what’s new, The old stays with us in everything we do. [Chorus] Change is a good thing, though it feels so strange, It’s the way we grow, through all the change. Family’s forever, no matter the road, We carry the love that makes us whole. It’s happening this way, for the better, we’ll see, Change is a good thing, let it set us free. [Bridge] The seasons will turn, and so will we, It’s part of the plan, it’s meant to be. We’ll take what we’ve built and carry it high, Through every goodbye, there’s a brand-new sky. [Chorus] Change is a good thing, though it feels so strange, It’s the way we grow, through all the change. Family’s forever, no matter the road, We carry the love that makes us whole. It’s happening this way, for the better, we’ll see, Change is a good thing, let it set us free. [Outro] Though the house may change, and we’re growing fast, The love we share will always last. It’s said things must change, and now we know, Change is a good thing-it helps us grow. How does this feel? It’s centered on the overall sense of change, growth, and family connection while keeping a hopeful and positive tone.
Sounds great as always my man!! I have a question for you: would you be able to make a playlist compiled with just your emotion filled ballad tracks in major keys for us? Those are my favs to practice along with and to have the list of them all in one spot on your channel and to be able to hit shuffle, ahhh that'd just be so lovely! Love the work you do bro, keep it up
You can find them compiled together in the various Deep Atmospheric Bandcamp collections 👍 elevatedjamtracks.bandcamp.com/album/deep-atmospheric-ballads-collection-vol-7
Tom, I, like many others have been enjoying your work for a long time. Not only do you provide beautiful tracks to enjoy, your playing is superb as well. I was wanting to inquire about your musical background. Are you self taught or did you go school for music? Just really curious is all. Could you maybe share a brief sentence or two about your background? Thank you and keep em coming 🤘🏻
Happy new year! I really love your tracks, especially this one, but one thing kinda annoys me: I'd love to see more keys like C# or Bb. Love you anyway; thank you!
Elavated Jam Tracks, like many on U tube is very good indeed, much more reliable than some. There's a nice high standard here. However, I should protest about the algorithm's nasty habit of appending teenage style platitudinous suffixes to prospective comments, like "(thoughty-face emoji) this reminds me of the 1st time I *****d a bishop because" and so forth, many of you will have encountered something like this already, it's OK, Babies, you can laugh, don't you spill your hi-ball on them Burstbuckers or it's the lemon oil and the screwdrivers for you.. Happy New Year to one and all! 😁🎶✨🌟👍
I know it's asking too much, but man I wish you showed a diagram of your pedal board at the beginning of each solo showing where you at... like example blues driver V:9, T: 6, OD: 4... paired with AquaPuss V:6 Time signature 2 O'clock, etc....
Best backing tracks on TH-cam, hands down!
I also agree!
I'll second that!
Even TH-cam channels use the stuff 😂

Oof, that sneaky little harmony lick at the end. Like a tasty little treat after a gourmet meal.
I'm not trying to push my beliefs on anyone, but when I heard this, I immediately heard this as a worship song. Absolutely killer as always, brother.
It’s mad major, yo. Super Major. Makes me feel like a part of something bigger. 😂. I kid, but it’s really good!
Syncopation, look it up. But I know what you mean. I no longer go to church but I still always find a hymnal in my head when I need it.

Yeah I get it. It makes me think of Thoth too.
The solo reminds me of Andy Timmons playing. High praise there. Stellar.
I don't even have to hear it, before I hit the like button! THEN, I listen, and am always blown away. Great job!!
that solo is fire dude. reminds me of Eric Johnson!
Sets the mood to conquer the next mountain peek ✊🏼🙂👍🏼
dude that solo cooked. Wow.
Merci! Je vais rebrancher ma guitare qui prends la poussiere depuis trop longtemps!

Here’s the complete version of the song:
“For the Better”
[Verse 1]
We grew up in one house, under one sky,
Shared laughter and love as the years flew by.
The walls that held us are starting to change,
And life is calling in a different way.
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s not just one thing, it’s everything now,
Time’s moving forward, we’re learning how.
[Chorus]
Change is a good thing, though it feels so strange,
It’s the way we grow, through all the change.
Family’s forever, no matter the road,
We carry the love that makes us whole.
It’s happening this way, for the better, we’ll see,
Change is a good thing, let it set us free.
[Verse 2]
The house looks different; it’s not how it was,
The rooms feel smaller, the years left their marks.
But every crack and corner holds what we’ve done,
A piece of our story in everyone.
[Pre-Chorus]
We’re not losing anything, we’re finding what’s new,
The old stays with us in everything we do.
[Chorus]
Change is a good thing, though it feels so strange,
It’s the way we grow, through all the change.
Family’s forever, no matter the road,
We carry the love that makes us whole.
It’s happening this way, for the better, we’ll see,
Change is a good thing, let it set us free.
[Bridge]
The seasons will turn, and so will we,
It’s part of the plan, it’s meant to be.
We’ll take what we’ve built and carry it high,
Through every goodbye, there’s a brand-new sky.
[Chorus]
Change is a good thing, though it feels so strange,
It’s the way we grow, through all the change.
Family’s forever, no matter the road,
We carry the love that makes us whole.
It’s happening this way, for the better, we’ll see,
Change is a good thing, let it set us free.
[Outro]
Though the house may change, and we’re growing fast,
The love we share will always last.
It’s said things must change, and now we know,
Change is a good thing-it helps us grow.
How does this feel? It’s centered on the overall sense of change, growth, and family connection while keeping a hopeful and positive tone.

@ElevatedJamTracks thanks Tom! :)

Thanks dude! Self taught, no formal background. Just started making TH-cam videos and generally try to learn by ear.
@ElevatedJamTracks Thank you for the reply and for what you do man!
This is what the internet was invented for.
Lovely
Great solo and track! What are you using for gear for the solo? Such a great sound
Best ever 👍
Love this track! What album collection is this on?
Happy new year!
I really love your tracks, especially this one, but one thing kinda annoys me: I'd love to see more keys like C# or Bb.
Love you anyway; thank you!
I have quite a few # and b key tracks in the back catalogue, but generally avoid them because they don't perform as well.
Could you play us a Rip Shet a Bucket Full of Root Hog er Die track?
7:57 : Escalofríos
Great track as always!
How do you record your acoustic guitars for these tracks?
Cheers
Usually just 1 Lewitt condenser mic, double tracked and panned L & R. Compression, EQ & room reverb in Logic
how many guitars do u actually own it seems like there's a different guitar for each video?

How’d you get that tone in the solo section?
What collection is this in?
👍🏻
