Day 28
Anyone else still writing songs?
this is the result of trying to listen to too many mixes in one day. Sometimes it's just easier to record something else.
Final version
Guitar, mandolin and voice.
this doesn't fit with my rpm project AT ALL so i may not use it but i like the way it came out. I recorded the music for Bethan Mathis' RPM project but she didn't have time to use it (her album is…
I'm really glad you left this on your RPM album. I think it matches more than you were initially suggesting, in fact I love how it very gently nudges the outer border of the album towards something ethereal, while still being of the same voice.
I feel like I've long been repeating myself concerning your songs: blah blah...great recreation...blah blah blah...recording is great...blah blah blah...I want to listen to this all the time...blah blah blah.

An unaccompanied song about bedtime. Not a lullaby though. Oh no!
What does anyone think of the 'cat's moustache' line - it seems like that's a make or break call right there and i like it when i read it but it's hard to sing without…
Another example of your perfect vocal performance for the material. Another gem off this album (well, the whole thing is quite a gem, but that's another story).
I'm finally happy with this track - v1 was too much of a nothing song and it's been bugging me all the way to the last night of the challenge.
1 more to mix

Every so often when i'm thinking of something else a western song pops up as if there is a soundtrack to a movie running in the back of my head. I might have to gather em all up into a playlist some day.

I believe 'yarrrr' is Pirate for "More Rum, by the salty sheets of Windy Gail". So it could be wearing thin, but is more likely just a little slurred LOL
My Pirate song. Sounds more like a polka band, but what the hell. I had fun doing it.
a song for Gumbo.
we sailed the angry seas
til we found a neutral port
we rowed the ship to shore
to go and find a fancy whore
down at the Buccaneer inn…

This is my 2007 Pirate Day song, written and recorded September 19th 2007. I like the innuendo, but maybe it's too subtle - nobody else seems to notice ;~)
I've been working on this one little by little; now I'm at a point where I do not feel like revisiting the feeling. Moves from 3/4 to 4/4, or so I think.. kind of like a 7/4 time sig but not really. typical glu instrumentation, etc.
Everyone…

Thanks guys and gals. It's be great to have a few more Piratical Ditty's slipping through onto the airwaves this year. I'll be doing another one for sure.
Does my accent sound Cornish?
Wicked!
This was written and recorded on 19th September 05
aka International Talk Like A Pirate Day 2005 ( a wet afternoon as I recall) and is posted here so you start to get the hint.
Thanks Kirk, that's fine by me!
Pirate Day is a right laugh, and a good excuse for a fun song.
Sister - that's fine by me, too LOL thankee. It was a few years ago - I'm a lot more decrepit, now, of course.
Comments on Gumbo's stuff
Ok, last word from me on this, as I'm sure it's getting old by now: that is one helluva great album.
I'm really glad you left this on your RPM album. I think it matches more than you were initially suggesting, in fact I love how it very gently nudges the outer border of the album towards something ethereal, while still being of the same voice.

Great stuff even better second time around. A perfect guitar vocal mix.......
Ooh this is purely lovely, great guitar playing!
LMAO - you're right, reg! I thought it was easy to play!
Everyday...........
Blue suede dice excellent
Another goodie
What Reg said.......and I may add one more.......zang....yeah this has zang..............Great track, real authentic sounding, great recording, very clear.
excellent vocal again......plenty of zing and zest
Almost perfect. I love your simple approach, it creates such immediate sounding recordings. I wish I could restrain myself to do the same...
Simple, bare, and really good to listen to.
powerful chum
excellent. again. turnin pages myself so is well timed for me this.
Me and the missus likes this!
> What does anyone think of the 'cat's > moustache' line Love it!

Thank God for El Dineenio
A passion play for our times.
Ah yes - this ol' stunner - beautiful. (good call moschell!)
added to the Pirate Radio list, by the Scunners!
What could be more Piratical than a Polka Band! Yargghh for the house band, and circulate the flaggons lads!
re: Cornish - that's a puzzle then re: Pirate love songs - plenty of room for a love song - Pirates have big hearts - just ask Davy Jones!
Great. I added it to the Pirate Radio Playlist, Alan. Cheers.

I dig the tune, too. Nice powerful undercurrent to it.
I wasn't drunk. *Oh no ...* Not me ...
Songs about the Sea. Yes. And on the sea ... ships? ... and in the ships? PIRATES?? No? Oh. Sorry.
Wow!
Thank you.

Woo! Pre-apocalyptic dance music. Love it!

Groovy!

Does Highway 50 go passed Lubbock, Texas by any chance. Great jaunty tune!
