I made a silly little song in French about the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy `:-) Recorded on my phone, hope it sounds ok on the website!
Lyrics:
Je viens d'reveiller
Je ne peux plus dormir
J'prends du cafe
C'comme ça, i'faut s'nourrir…
Just in time for St Patrick's Day . . . . And with any luck we might have a bonus "LIVE" Leprechaun track coming soon. The Minnesota Coffee table met and recorded a fun version last night.

I've been missing in action for ages - apologies to all, I'm about to start listening again too.
For ages, I'd been considering a move away from my trusty Boss BR1600 on which I've recorded and mixed nearly everything…
This one makes me really happy. Soothing and a little snappy. Guitar, bass, lyre, bongo, bodhran (brush), vocals.
Lyrics:
Life is a roller coaster
Just turn on the toaster
I know you're up and down
Just make a happy sound
Flying a dragon…
Thanks, David!
Yeah I'm not Irish myself but I've always been a big fan of Celtic music. Been getting more into playing with those kinds of instruments lately.
HOME
(Am D) or (F C)
VERSE 1.
Where the (G) windmill sings to the mocking bird
And the (CM7) prairie wind, without a word
(Am) Whispers thru tall (D) grass, I’ll be (G) home
(F C G) or (Am D)
VERSE 2.
Where the butter cups and…
High in the mountains
Above the falls and fountains
In the rarified air
You know ill care
Just for you, just for you
In the blue fiords
Seeking no rewards
In the darkest caves
My loves across the waves
Just for you, just for you…
Can you hide in happiness
Can you disguise the sadness in your voice
Could you play only major chords
Can you hide in happiness
Choose a part of you to show
And no one around you can know
Just how deep the scars go
Can you hide in…
Noodling around with classical guitar and came up with a progression. It progressed (regressed?) from there.
Parts are as rough as a cob, but I kind of like it. And when all's said and done, that's about it, right? If the creator of something…
A great little collaboration with Greg Connor and Colleen Dillon.
Merry Christmas to Everyone ......
And a silly little video :

I like this song, and I've recorded it twice now, but I don't think either recording lives up to its potential. I've been in Covid lock down for nine months now so I might just be crazy. Who can tell?
I cut a little out of the original…
I like the theme music to the PBS/BBC mystery series Midsomer Murders with its use of a Theramin. So much so that it inspired me to purchase a Theramin and try my hand recording my version of it. The first thing I learned is, while the Theramin…

So I got me a new geetar the other week.
Named her Lala, obviously. Seemed kind of appropriate - she wears a faded gold dress and is full of chunes and mischiefs.
This is our first effort together. It was meant…
A simple little guitar/drum loop that is just an excuse to layer big fuzzy guitar parts in harmony. I added quite a bit of soup onto the harmonies too, and put some backward vocals... just for trippy fun.
The cleanish guitar is a Gibson ES…

Very pleasant tune :)
Picturing those pawns coming down on a Queen-side castle...
Good stuff, really crisp sound.
Thanks, David! Yeah I'm not Irish myself but I've always been a big fan of Celtic music. Been getting more into playing with those kinds of instruments lately.
mm this is fantastic :)
I like coming back to listen to this one in particular sometimes. Sweet tune!
A feeling-good kind of song!
Thanks for the feedback on those other tunes, Lane! I'm digging these too :) Keep it up
Thanks, James! I think I started playing this tune after watching a season of Justified. Kind of in the same ballpark as the show's theme song.
Dig it! And, I agree wholeheartedly :)
The lyrics and chords with that hanging G note throughout really get under your skin :) I had to turn it up and listen again.
Lovely track!
I like this song too!
Just lovely! Downloading and playing on repeat for a while...
This one tickles my brain! :)
Well that tune's some good fun! Sort of playful and not-quite-creepy.
Mm, nice version of this tune. Tantalizing vocals and percussion.
Lala sounds bright and lovely and a little mischievous... Your comments on tracks are always appreciated! And your tunes are super easy to enjoy :)
Yep, dig it!
Very cool. I think I'll download it and play on a loop for a little while...
