Very sweet :) I wonder if you were thinking...."if all these damn guitarists are just going to make crossover patterns from my beats, i'll just make a crossover pattern mayself. ;) haha FAV'D

Out on the lawn there arose such a clatter!
Sometimes, as they say, Christmas do come early. I found Johnny Stone's "Christmas Rock In Oz" under the tree and couldn't wait until Yuletide to unwrap it. What a rockin' gift! I know a bit about…
It was a curious and wondrous thing.
One night I was in my studio adding some percussion to the "Quiet Rituals" track by Barry van Oudtshoorn, when my 4 young children (with whom I was long over-due to be tucking into bed and reading a bed…
A single track of improvised chromatically tuned congas in 7/8, accented with clave, guiro, cajon and quinto.
(For those who may be interested in collaborating on this, the triplet phrasing of this groove may be most easily counted like this…

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
This song was inspired from all the snowstorms we have been having this winter, another on the way tonight.....I decided to prog it out for this one....prog-rock.....lets bring it back.
Nothing like getting behind the skins when you are sentimental. Happens to me all the time. The skins don't mind tears.
Nice skin work here (the pattern is "Tumbao").
I just heard the Ramen #3 version of this and it totally blew me away!
Furthermore, I sickenly realized that I have posted a piece by the same name, a long time after you posted this one. I apologize for this and have changed the name of my posting (but a similar story to yours... first recording in a new house!!)
Strong work team. I'm a big fan!
Outland (The Ballad of Jarrod X)
words and music by VIVIAN CIRCLE
Mother, why did you lie to me?
I didn't have to make the same mistakes as you.
Father, why did you run away?
There was so many things left unspoken with you.
Jarrod walks…
Chris sent me this great tune playing his 17 ET guitar and fretless bass, and for some reason i thought Mafia instantly. Sammy the Bull was the under-boss to John Gotti back in the 80's and 90's and he turned informer to bring John Gotti down…
On Growing Old

My dog and I are old, too old for roving.
Man, whose young passion sets the…
This is me live....
No frills....
I Play a classical because my fingers are too big... Lol!!
Sorry if it is a bit rough...

It's always tough for the manager when a "walk-in" steals the show and the crowd clearly prefers him to the scheduled act! Well done! Very soulful bro!
Comments on Norm's stuff
very nice,, if i could not play the piano (when i grow up) i would like to be a percussionist,, you make it sound soooo good
You make this sound easy. You ole pro you.
@Jarvis: Stick to your ears - musically speaking, nothing else matters. Thanks!
I read what you wrote....I listened to what you played......I liked what you played and got perplexed at what you wrote...so I'll stick with my ears....80)
I found myself rocking back and forth a little while listening. This is very addictive!
Love It!!!
I like the percussion instrument choices and the way additional instruments are progressively added in waves, clean track
:)
@MTC: Ha! Cross-overs are fun no matter who makes them. But it's cool you get the concept. Thanks.
way to get those rolls in there as well. killer.
Very sweet :) I wonder if you were thinking...."if all these damn guitarists are just going to make crossover patterns from my beats, i'll just make a crossover pattern mayself. ;) haha FAV'D
Another great piece Norm....just love your sense of rhythm
So what happened to Johnny? This is the only thing that remains. Did I miss something?
Still beautiful........
Damn- How did I miss this? Brilliant!
I'm trying to find the words to say why I liked this. The best I can come up with: "it's real".
4/4 bpm...awesome!
Sweet groove
You got the beat man.
the individual samples for propane are stretched (and filtered) but not the composition.
Comments made by Norm
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!
You must have been hammered with snow! Nice work Dave!

Totally pro, Chris. Great, great work.

Lovely.
This is a masterpiece!
Lovely!
Tragic!
Fabulous story.
Your vocals are too hot for covers.
Oh so funky.
To quote Dorthy Parker: "That poor SOB". Strong work Chris!
I had to read a bit about "modal", which I still don't understand. But I know this much: this rocks hard. Many thanks! Here's hoping for a blizzard!

I hate the fact that your percussionist is quite clever.
Love the Rhodes! Cool boat sounds too. What a horrible time in history.
Boom chickie dig-gity boom ba! Excellent collaboration!
