painkillerPainkiller is a heavy duty jazz rock type of song. It starts with a long a cosmic intro performed by Pierre Bonin on keyboards. Take not that there’s no overdub on this one. Everything was performed live.

The song is extremely difficult to play. The tempo is 173 BPM and the chart was black of A6 notes figures… The key signature is also not really easy being in G# minor…

I should definitely have transposed it in A minor or in G minor. Even so, I was crazy at the time…

Lineup

  • Hervé Senni: guitar, solo
  • Pierre Bonin: Keyboards, solo
  • Alain Picotte: Bass
  • Mario Di Blasio: Drums

This is the first song I ever composed back in 1983… The jazz fusion or jazz rock style was big on the jazz scene at that time. Everyone told me that it sounds like a cop movie soundtrack.

The song holds a heavily arranged theme and features Normand “Porky” Devault on keyboard and myself on the guitar.

It was one of my first solo in studio and I like it. I remember being packed in the studio boot, with no room to move.

I also remember banging my head on the studio door frame each time, and I mean each time I was going from the console back to my guitar. I had huge bumps on my head when the recording was over…

Line up:

  • Tenor Sax: Jocelyn Menard
  • Trumpet: Pierre Lafrenaye
  • Guitar: Hervé Senni, second solo
  • Keyboard: Normand Devault, first solo
  • Percussion: Normand Bock
  • Bass: Alain Picotte
  • Drum: Gilbert Trahan
