It was quite a lucky mindgame in that case, since you ended up with two very worthy tracks as a result...although I'm sure you'd have preferred more convenient timing (like NOT when you're trying to finish up an album with a looming deadline.)

i just went and re-read what you wrote at RPM, Rob/Laura and I must apologise - you actually said you like it - i didn't though, so i re-recorded, but then it felt like me against the world lol
ANd now guess what - i listened to the first one again and it sounds OK to me too. Aaaarrggghhh again. :-)
Weird how my mind plays tricks on me

Ok, to set the record straight: I didn't dislike the previous version...sorry if I made it sound like that. I certainly didn't mean to push you to rerecord...
THAT SAID, I much prefer this version. Great stuff.
(Great...I still sound like a complete jerk!)

Again i'd love some feedback
I like the feel and the mix
do the lyrics work?
recorded t'night in an hour after trying all day to get the verse lyrics rammed into another tune
This is a bonus track as it didn't make the album
For those of you who know my stuff - does this sound like it works? or is it too much like filler - the vocals are effected, there's a drum loop - the guitar is just chopped out of a jam - i…

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 ;~)
It's a great song, Alex. And gets better with repeated listenings. It's in there with some other songs i am particularly listening to on my iPod and (rather than the usual - "damn i'm supposed to be doing something for this") I am blown away by how straightforwardly great it is. You might think there's a 'cheese' factor but it's well written, direct and clear. Bravo.

I went out during cover of night (to avoid looking like a total crackpot) with a violin bow & Zoom H2 digital recorder and bowed various things in the neighborhood. This is the best - a beautifully resonant 4-way stop sign.

Am I brave enough?

You hold that appeal

This is a guitar piece in classical style in 17 notes per octave using the 17 version of the phyrgian mode. In normal 12 equal tuning phyrgian mode starts on…
Lovely!
So your guitar has 17 frets to the octave or you retune so the octave is at the 17th fret instead of the 12th? does it tune up in a similar way? which fret gives you the note for the next string?

it needs a fiddle but it has a mandolin, a chicken banjo and some excellent backing vocalists

Definitely feel-good-factor.
great stuff.

cool tune ole blue grass tunes were ahead of rock n roll.
Thanks Gary - now read the about blurb that i just posted lol
Another great one!! Well done!
This track works so well! Sort-of reminds me a little of Johnny Cash (and that's a good thing!)
This rocks!!!!!!! It's a keeper!!! So gooood!!
This song rules.
Hahahahahaha, YEAH! Love it! Awright!
Hey this ain't no filler, it's great. Alright yeah!
That's really different for you, but I think it works fine. Has a great groove!!
I likes it. The groove, the vocal, the "awright".
I like the panning in this one separating the guitar parts.
Lovely tune, very nicely sung and played.
Nice one Stu! Love those backing vocals
Great song. The guitars have a nice Spanish vibe, which I like.

Aaaarrrr!! Yer hearts in the right place .... but no ....
this is like someone dangerous stroking the back of your neck with a knife (but can i get a version without the static noise at 4 minutes?)

Now that's rockin! Good reworking.
amazing to think this track didn't make the sampler!
Wow - amazing sounds - it's like being in a Tibetan Temple!
were you bowing the post or ( I assume) one of the two sign plaques?
and yes - video proof next time lol
And we have a winner in the "you might not look like a crackpot but ..." department! Love it! and Faved.
great version, Sandy! love the outro this song was my introduction to David Bowie as apprently it was written for Gene Vincent. What a place to start!
Such a beautiful mix! Lovely song!
Love it! Very Gilbert and Sullivan :-)
I can't believe you changed your name *again* lol
Lovely! So your guitar has 17 frets to the octave or you retune so the octave is at the 17th fret instead of the 12th? does it tune up in a similar way? which fret gives you the note for the next string?
Good stuff. Love that voice!
this has a wee video now
you guys sound so lovely together
haha! yessiree! i'd say it is :-)
love the birdsong at the start! nice guitar and great story faved
