I had a lot of fun listening to this one. The subtle use of sitar and the chugging rhythm guitar are two cool things (of many) that jump out at me. Nice work, Steve! :)
Here's the second song I recently decided to do with a studio recording from one I wrote and posted here a while ago as a purely vocal version. It's one of my favorites.... I hope you'll enjoy it too
Singing In The Silence
Verse 1:
Singing…
A Piece of Pi is our newest composition. It’s a brief summary of the story “Life of Pi”. A wonderful story needs a wonderful song. Hopefully we can meet this challenge and find like-minded people out there.
Jamming with a couple buddies. I screwed the lyrics up but it was fun to do. Who doesn't want to at least try an AC/DC tune?
A live recording:
Me: Vox, Bass
Joel: Guitar, Backing Vox
Chris: Drums, Backing Vox
Once in a nightmare
I knew you then
I think we were related,
I'm not sure
maybe we were strangers.
We'd look in windows and climb
the trees that grew,

And when I'd see you

My light-hearted take on a serious issue.

This was my attempt as a songwriter to make a commercially sellable song. It didn't work, but I love how it turned out anyway. These are the lyrics:
Got Feet, Won’t Dance
At the Lazy L he’s the head Ranch Hand
He came for whiskey…
Thanks Tom. Just a few noises thrown together and hopefully tuneful enough to endure. It's my tribute to V.H. but sadly without a voice like Dave Lee or an awesome guitar solo haha!
