Nice one. Me and the missus are watching Band Of Brothers again at the moment - for me, this has the same emotional kick to it that the B.O.B. theme has.

Richard I am Following this, Good results so far. I think the brass and strings might rub nicely with B3 organ. I dont know if thats possible , but it just pops in my mind.

Thank you so much, Richard for your kind words. Glad we got you up dancing on, "old". I had trouble standing still when I was recording the vocal. LOL!
I wish I could find the right words of what your music does for me. I'm always moved. It takes me somewhere. You are so very talented. XO

Hey Richard...thanks and yes I used to go to the Owl Bar.(my wife used to work across the street from the Belvedere a long time ago)..and it is still open, but I have not been there in years. lover this piece of music by the way...great mood music!!

Great title for this sombre piece. For some reason it brought a mental picture of Arlington Cemetry to mind so I hopefully got the feel that you intended. Fine work

This one goes with Urban Moonlight.
Where there is dark, there is light (and all that stuff... ).....
I remember how Sunlight after the Riots seemed to bring a peace.....
This track features some light lead from Dave Passourd.

The arrangement was marred by the recent disorder in London. It is with a sadness that this set of events has made…
come away, come away
away from trouble
away from care
come away, come away
away from sorrow
away from fear
may the cool wind find you
through a thousand thoughts unsaid
gather you in
weary day behind you
and you can lay your head…
i add to the others,, welcome, i love the somewhat plaintive/wistful tone of the whistle you have chosen a most auspicious day for me to join AT ,, it's my birthday,, thank you for the wonderful music richard
well well, a bit of the CV magic goes a long way,,,first off i love it!! the softer somewhat understated approach is superb, is that clarinet in the main? love it's blue feel,,,, there's almost a slight klesmer feel to this (2nd listen),, you musta had a lot of fun doing this,,, the more i listen i, hear just how well you have orchestrated/put this together,, very very well done,, as always i am amazed by your broad range of skills and musicianship,, yours,,, Richard
dreams yes,, sometimes fun, sometimes heroic, sometimes bittersweet,, you have nailed a bit of our national soul,, very well done,,, i hope more here at at give this a listen R
Fisherman and the Siren by Lord Frederic Leighton
This is a blues collaboration between The TwoRegs (vocals / lyrics) and Norm Harris (percussion) and myself (17 note per octave electric guitar and fretless bass).
We hope you enjoy it…
Along with her magnificent harmonizing vocal tracks, Inge sent me one track which was crashed by her 2-year old son Willem. He pretty much takes over the whole operation at about 3:00.
In the background you can hear the original rough vocals…
I Got the Idea for this tune when I left Geir at Stanstead Airport.
Recorded it Last night after a Gig....
For the Folk Fest...

I saw discussion of Bleu tuning on the yahoo tuning groups – all of which were tempered to a pure octave. Embolden by Andrew Heathwaite’s 88 cent guitar I decided to try the tuning without tempering to make the octave pure. So I made a scala…
hi Chris,, soundwise/music interesting,,, i sometimes feel like a tourist in your world of music,, not sure i get it all, but i do know that at some level it helps me to appreciate both my own way and the bigger picture of musical sounds in new ways,,, have a happy 4th R

Verrrrry nice, Richard... Captured the mood perfectly.
It's a cool tool.
Richard, I love where you're going. Beautiful! w;-)
Lovely! Shaping up to be a hell of a RPM for you
Tasty
Nice one. Me and the missus are watching Band Of Brothers again at the moment - for me, this has the same emotional kick to it that the B.O.B. theme has.
Really nice baroque piece!
Richard I am Following this, Good results so far. I think the brass and strings might rub nicely with B3 organ. I dont know if thats possible , but it just pops in my mind.
Again Richard, this is absolutely beautiful! w;-)

Keep reading and keep experimenting and playing. I'm loving it.
Great title for this sombre piece. For some reason it brought a mental picture of Arlington Cemetry to mind so I hopefully got the feel that you intended. Fine work
Nice work, and realistic I'd say.
Lovely!
This is a very moving piece of music. Excellent.
A rich and full sound. Beautiful
These are both lovely! Looking forward to the rest!
Wow! First effort? Gorgeous!
Works for me.
