Comments on Gilbert Neilson's stuff

I always liked this traditional song based on the old folk tune, 'Rueben's Train'. so I decided to give a go. It was recorded a couple of years ago As usual more time spent mixing than recording. At the time I was suffering from some sort of bug…

An old favourite if mine, given the wonderful Gilbert treatment.

Love your buggy voice - sounds wonderfully velvety and mournful.

Jamie is one of the very first "Off the cuff" songs I wrote. What ever popped into my head at the time. It sat around for many years before I finally decided to record it. Recorded in Jan 08.

I can't remember when I wrote this but it's been 10 or more years ago. A very simple song!

I like this version, even better than the CCR take. Always makes me think of that late night rock show in 70's of the same name.

I went for a traditional 4 piece band sound (2 Guitars, Bass & Drums.) No loops 'cept for drums. Hope you like it.

This great old (Public Domain) song by Stephen Foster which I just do and has nothing to do with my current state of life but may not be true for others. I do this song in a most unusual way. That is to say I changed the melody of the verses…

got this off of wikipedia.org "Hard Times Come Again No More" is a popular song written by Stephen C. Foster during 1854. Well-known and popular in its day, both in America and Europe, THANKS for this song. I love the story behind it.

This was recorded a while back. I hope to redo it soon. This was done in Garage Band v1.

Love the feel of this one. You can hear the sincerity of emotions in the vocals. Always think it's cool when someone can make you feel the song...like a good novelist can pull you into the story.

One of my fav songs. Didn't they use this in the Twilight Movie with Dan Akroyd? He was the ambulance driver in the beginning I think? hehe. Nicely done mate.

I have not been able to do much lately because of rebuilding our house which had been in a major flood. The flood was in June 08 and we are just getting back in! Anyway I should be doing more soon.

Saved!
