A podcast interview combined with the strong curiosity of a proud member of my favorite band INXS brought me to ggbbasses.com. After carefully navigating the site, one section offered to “HIRE GARRY!” on a track. Naturally, I was very interested in all of the additional options associated with the bass session. As luck would have it, my company produced a song, "Shine like the sun" performed by the Costa Rican guitarist Igni Ferroque. Filling out a form to contact Garry Gary Beers was an unbelievable surreal request that was cool in and of itself.https://youtu.be/ieGjN5H4xPQTo my astonishment, Mr. Beers personally followed up with an email the next day. Along with the courtesy of proper introductions, we mutually confirmed my intention to purchase the full bass session package. Caught in the moment, I insisted on a good faith deposit for his time and close the deal. Mr. Beers had naturally shaped the pace of doing business in a relaxed way. "By all means send me the tracks. I’ll have a good listen and let you know my thoughts on moving forward. That work for you?" It did work as a potential new client and placed me in a good frame of mind from the start.Fortunately, Mr. Beers had informed me of the positive news about the song making the cut. "Hey Richard, the music is great! Looking forward to having a play on it". He offered many secure payment options along with the value placed on all four elements. The expenditure was more than justified and deemed a gift when considering his talents and achievements. Mr. Beers never pressed for any money nor attempted a hard sell. He is a nice man that loves music, period. In a trustworthy spirit, Mr. Beers offered me the convenience of sending a comfortable amount of money to start the project. The value of the arrangement was so good that I immediately choose to commit 100%. We sent a full deposit, sat back and prepared to enjoy the ride. As the secure funds entered the GGB business account, Mr. Beers had already taken the liberty to record the bass tracks and was at the ready to send the audio files. He added a sincere compliment as well, "Music is excellent by the way- really reminds me of Rainbow- one of my fav bands." Mr. Beers walked me through the easy process of combining his work with the initial recording for the finished product. The steps were simple, “2 tracks of bass version 1 – DI and Amp.2 tracks of bass version 2 – DI and Amp- Both of these takes have a click at the top to verify it syncing to your track. They are recorded to the tracks you sent with the click intro so they should sync perfectly." Mr. Beers added an additional spark, “I’m also sending synth tracks to accompany the bass tracks- Intro only. I have included a mix track and the individual synth tracks." The music had a studio quality sound and GGB grooves. It rocked along with the enjoyment of plug and play. A video of Mr. Beers playing on the track was coming up next and the apex of my unique musical journey.Like clockwork, Mr. Beers enthusiastically contacted me about the video and the confident reaction to his bass session. "Glad to hear it" He wrote. "I enjoyed playing the tracks… Let me know which bass track versions 1 or 2 you used with the intro and the track so I can send a matching performance video.” Handing over Mr. Beers all creative control was logical and showed a true respect for his craft. The consideration by Mr. Beers to collaborate on a decision was unforeseen and very appealing. How do you choose one groove when both versions are slick? I decided to mix and match the funk from the tracks provided. Mr. Beers had agreed and gave the feeling of excitement by his response, "That would have been my choice. The Intro bass with the fuzz and Wah is a trip!" The performance videos sent by Mr. Beers had simple instructions: "Hey Richard, here's 2 videos- the Intro -take 2 with fuzz and Wah - and the song - take 1 with pick. The intro track has a click count in so it should be easy to sync." He added, "The main track video has the guitar intro so you can sync to that. Hope this works for you." The final production was amazing and combined perfectly. In addition, Mr. Beers mentioned the project on his personal Facebook Page, “Last night I finished bass tracks for an amazing Costa Rican heavy rock artist- really great stuff and a lot of fun for me to play on.”Everyone noticed that Mr. Beers showed an authentic enjoyment as he adjusted his amp and started jamming in an Aussie themed studio. Apart from the brilliant music created, a heartfelt chest tap happened as he finished the song and the video ended. The final act of my personal experience working with Garry Gary Beers was a strong transfer of positive electromagnetic energy that was widely felt and well received. Thank you Mr. Beers for the luxury.I highly recommend Mr. Garry Gary Beers. The working relationship was easy and stress free. My firsthand knowledge involved the attention to detail, clarity to avoid miscommunication and the generosity of his sincere efforts. Experiencing a comfortable first time business deal was a pleasure. The financial investment in working with Mr. Beers was worth the extemporaneous chance to meet a multi-platinum bass guitarist. Most importantly, the bonus of sharing his music and imagination with fans. In conclusion, I am a very satisfied customer of Mr. Beers and admire his ingenuity on this special project.Richard BlankCEOCosta Rica's Call CenterLoyal INXS Fan"Shine like the Sun" by Igni Ferroque is a powerful anthem that celebrates perseverance, determination, and the pursuit of one's dreams.

Igni Ferroque, which from Latin means iron and fire, performed its first concert in the Colegio La Salle auditorium on September 15, 1978.Roberto "Ferroque" Ruiz all the weight of the direction of the group and it was then that all the musical work and the creative genius of Roberto Ruiz rose that this legendary Costa Rican band has not left to this day and marked the beginning of a process of musical growth and development of relevance inside and outside of Costa Rica.Throughout its long history, full of ups and downs, the group visited Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador and Ecuador between 1986 and 1992, bringing to all those forums the Original Rock that has always characterized them. Based on the anti-arms and pro-environmental theme, its lyrics are clear: "If rock is a means of mass communication, the message must be clear and positive," Roberto Ruiz told Rodrigo Farías Bárcenas, a Mexican journalist, in an extensive interview given to Diario Uno más Uno in 1986; that phrase defines the idiosyncrasy of Igni Ferroque.His hits include "Si Quieres Paz" (1990), "Dance in the Swamp of the Dead" (Inspired by a passage from the Lord of the Rings, 1986), "San Lucas" (1982), "Silences" (1980) , "Homeland" (1980) and "La radio" (1979). Their music has been described as jazz-rock with influences from heavy, blues, reggae, and classical, quite progressive for Costa Rican standards. Currently, the group is sounding "better than ever" as confirmed by the excellent musician Calilo Pardo, director of the Academy of Modern Music. They have shared the stage with groups such as El Tri, Alux Nahual, Botellita de Jerez, Kenny y los Eléctricos, Depeche Mode. They also shared in the biggest party in the history of Rock in Costa Rica during "Human Rights Now" in 1987 alongside Bruce Springteen, Sting, Peter Gabriel, Yossu Nandour and Tracy Chapman.https://youtu.be/ieGjN5H4xPQINXS, Garry Gary Beers, Igni Ferroque, Shine like the sun, Richard Blank,Costa Rica's Call Center, Outsourcing, Telemarketing Call Centre, BPO, Nearshore Contact Center, Sales, Entrepreneur, B2B, Business, Podcast, Gamification,rock n roll, music
