MAD AND SAD AND SCARED
I just want to get by for a friend
This is not how I would want to end
Mad and sad and scared
In everything I've shared
That is all I leave behind me
This is all I am
Hope I find a way
To kiss you every day
That…
MID SUMMER
A mid-Summer's night's dream
The days are slipping by
Amid the rushing stream
I take the time to cry
The end is hurling near
I stand with open arms
I sing the tunes I hear
While falling for her charms
She is why I'm…
WALKING ON THE MOON
See the Earth on horizon
Watch the Earth as she's arising
I hope the living are gazing
I hope the people are loving
Feel like I'm walking on the moon
I think I will be on there soon
My body's going to set me free…

That cannot fly" ~ Langston Hughes

For battered wings, they will not…

Oops, guess I wasn't logged in before. I must have used all brain cells recording the song. Anyway, I had a lot of fun with this, and as you said, we've all been friends for a long time.
Remember Terry's radio station? It's been a lot of enjoyment.

I'm getting a real kick out of everyone's contribution to this number. I've always appreciated Steve's sweet picking skills, Greg's sweet vocals, and Terry's not-so-sweet, serious, in-your-face way with lyrics. I've been wanting a recording featuring the 4 of us for like 7 years now. I'm so tickled that it's finally happened. Hopefully now that the horsemen have come together, this doesn't lead to the Apocalypse! Thanks, guys -- y'all did awesome!

Instrumental fusion of an Asian-flavored pentonic scale with a G minor-based American Blues scale. The Asian scale is a D 5th version of the Koto scale, performed using the Pan Flute setting on a Yamaha E313 KB, while the Blues scale is performed…

a Mash from this weeks sound-in.org workings..
Chris Vaisvil on guitar.. 22-edo interlude with the piece Washes in threes by Norbert Oldani and the big bass line by Glenn Smith
I like it when the music escapes the box and then makes a mad dash to get several yards away from that damn box. Very colorful - I dig the scene you paint with sounds. Dig the taste as well. Nice texture. Music should have texture when you're biting into it.
this was made in audacity because acid keeps on crashing when I go to save a composition very annoying :( but I was able to render the sounds in audacity minus the first 20+ minutes that were lost to bad acid.. acid studio 8
Trippy. Sci-Fi-ish. Reminds me of this time in the '70s when I came across these mushrooms in a cow field in Texas, and the next thing I knew, I was being abducted and probed by aliens. Groovy compilation of sounds -- Rock on!
"Hey Motorman" was written for the 100 year celebration of the Ariel Lift Bridge.
The bridge was originally built in 1907 with a gondola that went from side to side carrying passengers and vehicles. It was later replaced with a lift system.
I dig the strumming style, and particularly enjoyed the bass line, and the lead guitar was sweet, tasteful, and choice. An all around good groove. Rock on!
THAT'S "messing around?!" Sounding damn right professional to me. You can really stich together some tasty grooves! You have some mad mix down/mastering skills! Rock on!
I dig that strumming style! The vocals ROCK! Some sweet lead guitar licks happening here. Great recording job on the drums. Y'all truly got it together -- ROCK ON!
Can you imagine the uproar if they weren't ???........The drums have taken over.....what can i say!!.....what to try first?...I know I'll try a drum solo!!...Why Not?.....Watch out Ginger :dance4:
Damn good sounding digital drums! They must have cost you a fist full of pretty pennies! You play them quite well -- them some mighty fine beats! Rock on!
Pleasure boats and fishermen
Tugboat pushin three barges wide
Sit on the banks from morn till evening
Wave to the people as they pass me by
Up in Minnesota she’s fast and cold
Walleye fishing just below the dam
Go and catch em til…

And y'all thought the Hokey Pokey was what it was all about! This song is 4 dimensional – up/down, left/right, in/out, now/then. BIG THANKS to Greg Connor for fabulous vocals…

Drums, bass, rhythm and lead guitars, vocals, lyrics, mix down/master job -- I love it all! Great job, guys -- Rock on!

:D Too groovy! You're a brilliant songwriter. I love this -- excellent job! Keep doing what you do and stay groovy. Great job on that slide!
As I got further into this song, I realize you really know what you're doing --you got some mad mix down/mastering skills!
I dig the strumming style, and particularly enjoyed the bass line, and the lead guitar was sweet, tasteful, and choice. An all around good groove. Rock on!
Ditto what Greg Connor said below me.

Fabulous! I dig your style. Lots of fun in the ears! Rock on!
You paint with sounds, and I dig the imagery! Top notch mix down/mastering job. Well done indeed -- Rock on!

Damn good sounding digital drums! They must have cost you a fist full of pretty pennies! You play them quite well -- them some mighty fine beats! Rock on!
Greg Connor is correct -- ZZ Top-ish. A lot of fun having this number tickle around inside my ear. Damn fine groove -- Rock on!
Dig! This is a very groovy tune. Love it! You ROCK! Rock on! Esta es una canción muy maravilloso. Quiéralo!
