Jamtracks and local audio files won't close

Doing 3-chord blues all day holds very little interest for me, so I'm publi$ng the song list in advance and making charts and sound files available.  Whether the others will actually prepare remains to be seen.  :-)
It all depends on the instruments on your session.  If you have Rhythm instruments (Drum, Bass or Keys) you probably dont need backing tracks at all ... just Jam & enjoy.  I have always found that they would clash with the backing track anyway (in live sessions & classes, let alone on JK) .... but if you only have ‘lead instruments’ (lead guitar, woodwind, brass) and no rhythm ... then you are going to need a backing track.

and if you DO need a backing track - you really need it prepared in advance of the JK session and ready to upload (FLAC format is good).   As mentioned at the start - I have had these track not close and a RESYNC fixed it every time.
