Recorded Last Friday - I sprung this song on Mark Imsdahl while we were playing music together.
I thought he did pretty good for never hearing the song before.

"Better with each glass of wine..." yeah yeah yeah! :-D
But I have to admit... I thought I was bein' attacked by a swarm of Queen (as in Freddy Mercury) bees before I got the point about kazoo. Yeek!
Greg... you know, if u don't C# you'll Bb. Words to live by.
I gotta go.

@ Mark Imsdahl . . . .
I knew there was another verse to this song.
Just for everyone's information, Mark was with me last Friday when we went to meet Steve Krell at the airport.
Breakfast became quite entertaining. Ernest hit us with everything he had, and in the end became our friend . . . well . . . maybe not Steve's friend.

Next in the little pile of songs from the shoe-box. This one has the date 27th January 1994 written on it, but it's describing an episode from many years earlier when I was, I'm guessing, something like 12 or 13 years old.

Yes, I like less reverb, but who am I to know. I thought you got a more natural sound on the other setting.
They're both good, and if there wasn't the request for comparison, the differences would have gone unnoticed.
well this is a bit awkward, but i have been chatting with Nosda Cariad about the various plus and minus of sound settings ie reverb,,, sometimes i feel like i have used too much, as sort of a crutch. in this version the reverb has been toned down…
rpm #7,, i think this will be the overture, to a small midi orchestral suite, which i hope will finish up as my remaining 3 pieces for this years rpm, but well see how that goes,, thanks for all the helpful comments i have received on this project…

Straight cover, from a backing track, just because I had the urge and I don't think the neighbours would appreciate me thrashing the guitar so late!
The backing track pretty much sums up where my head was at when I recorded it :)
First of all guys, sorry haven't been about for weeks. Been down with Flu & this & that, got to say this song didn't do the throat much good. So many takes, as I coughed up my lungs half way through !!!!! Anyway, an old rant I wrote 6…

Good one. I like the acoustic guitar.

Unique and Fresh Sound. Well done!
Oh Yes, This hit the spot!
Wow . . . My feet are tapping. You hit the bullseye James! Nice, Nice, Nice, Song
I love the guitar. The video . . . Nice addition! Who is that Handsome fella playing the guitar? Well done Andrew! Great song!

The reverb setting is a success to my ears. Nice Cello and overall piece.
Well done! You recorded a great sound on your acoustic guitar, and the vocal harmony gives me goose bumps.
Breathtaking Good tension and resolution with captivating arrangement. Nice one Richard.
I like this. Great lyrics combined with simplicity.
This would make a great Stadium Rock Anthem.
Another good one. You have some great guitar licks here.
Refreshing . . . right between the soft and the hard.
Good combination of music and lyrics.
You have a nice groove going here. I like that bass.
Attitude +Plus FDR - You Got Style!
First Rate! Nice going guys. This is a great song.
I think your *"Back Up Band"* is holding you back. I found myself leaning in to hear that GREAT voice of yours.
Lots of tenacity here. Your lungs may be coughed up but the family jewels are still clanging together. Nice delivery !
