Listen to this song on Soundcloud :

 

[verse 1]
Losing somebody you love
taken away by a God that lives above
it's making you wonder what is right or wrong
it's making you wonder if life's but a sad song

 

[chorus]
So please try to understand
what it's like to lose a friend
whenever I think of him
I feel left all alone
like a child in the dark
with a hole in my heart
where the sad winds blow

 

[verse 2]
My life has changed since he's been gone
and there is nothing I can do to bring him back home
I went to the land where they buried my friend
talked to the wise man, needed a helping hand

 

[chorus]
So please try to understand
what it's like to lose a friend
whenever I think of him
I feel left all alone
like a child in the dark
with a hole in my heart
where the sad winds blow

 

[tin whistle and fiddle solo]

 

[chorus]
So please try to understand
what it's like to lose a friend
with all this loneliness inside
All I do is killing time
Tell me how to rip the tide

 

[chorus]
So please try to understand
what it's like to lose a friend
whenever I think of him
I feel left all alone
like a child in the dark
with a hole in my heart
where the sad winds blow
where the sad winds blow

Kemper Testimonies


Suseguitar from Kemper forum:
I had a chance to play one of the profiles (037508) yesterday in our rehearsal room, played my Strat with Quarterpounds ;) - the solosound is just awesome, assertive, supporting and inspiring. Great work!

Ibot39 from Kemper forum:
After testing the profiles my conclusion is: The pack does exactly what the author is advertising. You get the Blackmore sound from the mentioned era. Humbuckers are possible, other 70s rock-sounds with a little tweaking. But the real soul of this pack is authentic Blackmore-tone! For this it was created with an ear for details and this is were the rigs shine! Thanks for the nice pictures that complement this special pack. I have to highlight the pdf that comes with the profiles offering very detailed information. Great!

Laker from Kemper forum:
These profiles are the real deal IMHO.

Riddlescott from Kemper Forum:
I like it the better the longer i play it. What i also appreciate is the tasty effects settings. Highly recommended for the real Marshall Bluesy Staccato Strat Sound.

raiellojr from Kemper forum:
I like the pack a lot...a little tweaking and I can get real close to your sound samples.

Laker from Kemper forum:
Only the one amp a Marshall Major but it sounds like the real deal. These profiles are outstanding. Everything they make sounds great. What I really like about them is their sound samples sound just like what you download. IMHO a lot of other profilers do not sound the same.

Acolbourn from Kemper forum:
For Frusciante profiles I tried flying snowman's more black pack listed above and they sound great!

Razorpig55 from Kemper forum:
I spent a ton of time searching for the right “blues” tones and happened on your site.  I really love the pack ('60 Pack) I downloaded, especially the FS ’60 B1001pa......nice, crunchy and just a bit mellow.  I’m going to post your site on the reddit site for Kemper.......have a great one thanks for the great tones.

Kungsmas from Kemper forum:
Extremely great stuff. Among the best vintage Marshall profiles ever.
ROCK ON

Michael Worsnup from Facebook Group "Kemper Tips and Tricks":
Got the original pack & just downloaded the new one sound great with my strat Blackmore always been my favorite guitarist and they really nail his sound!

Milano (per email): 
Thank you for providing this great product. The profiles are really good, great job man! Shoot me a message when MORE BLACK PACK 3 releases, I'll be first in line to buy it from you.

Timothy (via mail):
You really did an excellent job. I'm working through the profiles and am very impressed!

BadBadger from Kemper forum:
Great tones and great playing too in your YT video!

@stevegardiner8473 on YouTube:
These profiles sound really close to the original tones.

dxmayer from Kemper forum:
I have to say, as great as the amp itself is, your profiling is what really brings this Marshall Major to life. Even with high gain, the clarity and voice of the guitar shines through. It’s one of the best profiles of a Marshall I’ve played. Very nice tone crafting! Oh, and a very generous selection of song specific profiles, too, in addition to main amp files.
