Damn cool there man!

Feel good and utterly cheeky.

enjoyed that a bunch - good stuff. Kerstin

very nice,,i like it fine,, vocals, and music seem to fit quite well together in style and mix,,, i guess in some part it depends on what your trying to achieve,, but as an outsider to the process, i think it's quite nice

With all these recordings, this year's RPM even more than last, you are aiming straight at a deep love and appreciation I have for the music of this period. Usually when people go for this sound, it comes across to me as either having a gross modern sheen to it that makes me want to vomit, or they're being overly reverential, killing the great old tunes in the process. How you manage to straddle that divide and produce something that apes the genre without feeling like a copy while also not feeling the need to force it somewhere it doesn't need to be...is beyond me, and I'm all the more amazed for that. I wish I could come close to this sort of music-making fidelity. Needless to say (?) I adore this track, absolutely adore it.

there something about strings that put me in a good mood, low fi folk...nice

I uploaded a cheap n cheerful video for this

fantastic tribute to Willie McTell.

i love the song!!!!!!!!!!!! xxxxxxxxxxxx <3

Brilliant the sound, vocal, the lyrics the playing loved it

like the stumbly rhythm to this.. cant see anything particularly adversely affected vocals wise butty. sounds fine to me. thats all im onna say about that

Thanks for implying my taste is impeccable!

thanks for the kind words and the feedback guys and gals - i'm not sure you can even find my voice with a spade, tho .... i shall have a play around with the Eq and see if i can make head or tail of it. It's not something i've used much to tell the truth (and why not tell the truth once in a while eh?) so i might actually learn something.

I agree with kavin, it does lend itself to an old 78, but i like it. I think it fits well for the style of music.

I've noticed the Yeti has a lot of midrange, so I've been adjusting eq for that, like GN said. It's actually perfect for this style, type of song, sounds like an old 78, without the cracks and pops.

Digging your voice with a big ole spade.

Sonically it's very good. Very clear and a good mix. Maybe it has a bit of harshness that could be EQ'd out but it might be hard to pinpoint. Once you do then that should be good from then on to always use that EQ. I would experiment until you get the sound you like. Still, it's a very good recording. And, another good song!

love it, now thats all i'm going to say about that

Cute song, and I think your new mic is fine, you sound great!

you are a real blues man, i love this.

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

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.

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!

Woo! Pre-apocalyptic dance music. Love it!

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.

Groovy!

ditto the last comment!

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