excellent collab indeed, and a great tune! the original has a rather intimate feel, adding your percs turned it all into a get-together afternoon, under the sun, with good buddies and let the jammin' goes its own way..

Lyrics

Reach the top and your half way up...
You didn’t see your rise, and Lost your way.....
Looking down on the world your tears fall...
You Missed the Beauty of the climb.
And now you’re…
This track is from the 1986 Scartaglen album "The Middle Path". The first tune "Jezaig" was composed by Breton musician Gilles Le Bigot. The second tune is one of the "Cantigas de Santa Maria" and is attributed to King Alfonso X of Spain

Jamming with a couple buddies. I screwed the lyrics up but it was fun to do. Who doesn't want to at least try an AC/DC tune?

I heard this by Norm and it got me thinking about an idea of an old friend who turns up in need, its a surprise , you haven't even thought of him in the last six months and here he is what do you do?............
Well it had to happen sometime, he couldn't go on living the way he was, even with those full throttle hands there was no excuse, he was guilty....... guilty as charged........RPM2011
Comments on Norm's stuff
that drumhall effect is amazing. . . I thought the first mix was great so i am even more blown away by this! That is superb norm!
Holy smokes, bro - Lexiwhat?? I'm such a reverbtard so I always stay away from it, but you really did well here. And I love the new mix and the changes you made. Downloaded and the PiePod has been updated!
Lovely!!!
that lexicon added a 3rd dimension to the track! magical piece..
I posted a remix today which adds Lexicon "Drum Hall" reverb and a bit of compression.
grooooove on!! you rolls rock and congas coming in at 01'38" is right on..
I have posted a new mix processed via a Lexicon MX200 to add "drum plate" reverb and a bit of compression.

EXCELLENT, WONDERFUL! LOVE THIS TRACK! w;-)
I first heard this song about 7 months ago, and I gotta say Norm, you really added value to it. Amazing!
NORM!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You have no Idea How Happy I am !!!!! THANK YOU,THANK YOU,THANK YOU,THANK YOU,THANK YOU,THANK YOU,THANK YOU,THANK YOU,THANK YOU,THANK YOU,THANK YOU,THANK YOU,THANK YOU,THANK YOU,THANK YOU,THANK YOU,THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Awesome, like vanilla ice cream awesome. More three way collabs!!!!!
excellent collab indeed, and a great tune! the original has a rather intimate feel, adding your percs turned it all into a get-together afternoon, under the sun, with good buddies and let the jammin' goes its own way..
Most sympathetic and gorgeous. What I like about it is you haven't tried to compete, just complete and the outcome is wonderful.
How on earth do you make your drums sing like that? Understated, melodic, compulsive. I think you are brilliant!
BRILLIANT. I enjoyed every second...except the one after it ended. ;)
Nice collab Norm! I'm about half way done with mine with a couple of your tracks, can't wait to share it!
Sweet heavens this is fantastic. Sheeeeit thats so good.
Comments made by Norm
Excellent.
Beautiful Kirk!
Go Reg Go! Delores was no good for you anyway... Reg won't mind putting you up for awhile and you two can work on a few tunes in the meantime.
Way fun!
What a story!
I agree with the Captain: this is very good. Please, more details on how you produced this!
Yes, this is excellent! Great voice!

Excellent!
What a lovely tribute!
I'm afraid that I must fave anything that Bethan loves so much. And I quite agree with her. Outstanding work, ladies.
Now this really works! Well done!
Kidneys? Most excellent!
She was no good for you anyway, Reg. And a good bender may be necessary to get over it... but don't crawl into that bottle. Stick to the tea!
Someday may not be soon enough. I want a pre-war guitar playing preacher for my church. Well done!
A blast from the past. Still sounds great, Chris.
Don't do it Reg!
Je dirais - l'eau bleue, mais alors je ne suis pas français. En tout cas, je l'aime ! Le merveilleux, la caractéristique Doug Sparling solide.
How in the world did I miss this?? We may never know your friends song...
We're going to miss you Reg!
