Love this - I'm sat at the back of an empty concert hall, wondering why the bottle is empty and why my head is spinning, and which way the night bus is... but it's ok cos there's a bloke on the stage playing the noises in my head.
Johnny pushed and shoved and heaved; it was no small accomplishment to have finally manoeuvered 'Joanna' to the edge of the sink-hole (known by local indigenous people as "Cyclops" and rumoured to be several hundred metres deep) - it was, indeed, a grand effort.
"Goodbye, Baby" Johnny whispered as one last push sent Joanna a-tumbling. And as she tumbled and bounced off the sides of old Cyclops, Johnny heard not a single tone - not an alone-tone, but several tones; several tones that slowly developed into a melody. Joanna, it seemed, would have the last laugh; 'don't forget me' she appeared to cry as the darkness enveloped her; as she dropped like a stone...
Hi Johnny,
I've been taken by this song. I hope you don't mind, I wrote some lyrics to go with it.
Adeline you’re the reason why
I greet the sun in the morning sky
You’re the reason that I’d walk a mile
Just to see your perfect smile
It’s just a feeling that I get from you
It’s everything that we’ve been through
I’m the most happy when I’m here with you
I only hope that you can feel it too
We’ll watch the stars together you and I
And when you say you love me I’ll reply
I can’t imagine what my life would be
If you weren’t here with me
Reaching out I hope you take my hand
We’ll make each day together something grand
Because I want to spend my life with you
Until our days are through
Adeline you’re the reason why
I greet the sun in the morning sky
I got to play this $3,000 8 string baritone Taylor today. Had I $3,000 at all it would have been mine! It has to be one of the best guitars I've ever played and an ingenious string combination.
This is a piece using Garritan World Sample Set (Tibet singing bowls and Tibet bells) and pianoteq. It also uses a non-octave tuning that is an infinite stack of just major seconds (scala file below).
This is a track from my retrospective album Heptadecaphilia.
Details, online play, PDF that has background on the music, images, and links to videos are to be found here:

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…
A Highly disappointing arrangement i just threw out there cause i tried it multiple times and gave up. this was the best
The Tempo sucks in the beginning and some notes are really sour. ( and there's some really beautiful parts i messed up that…
This one was saved from an old cassette heading towards the bin....some might say it should have carried on ..............it is an early recording of Thetworegs ad-libing unplugged from an hotel room in Germany on a wet Sunday in 1994......Elvis…
i was listening to a post of this Beatles cover by oldrottenhead this morning,,it is a really great song, so this evening i sort of just sort of sat down an let it happen,,i didn't even really know the song as much as i might like,, but i find…
You are right on the money for Knife Edge here is a right up I found
"Knife Edge", is based on the first movement of JanáÄek’s Sinfonietta (1926) with an instrumental middle section that includes an extended quotation from the Allemande of Johann Sebastian Bach's first French Suite in D minor,
Cheers mate.
I Got the Idea for this tune when I left Geir at Stanstead Airport.

I abuse Jeff Lynn's (ELO) wonderful song.
I sing it a minor 3rd lower then originally recorded by ELO since I wanted to use my 12-string guitar and it is a lot easier to play tuned down to reduce the tension a bit.

12 string rhythm…
Sadly, an unfinished track I recorded about the time I ran out of money. Back when I was writing four or five tunes a day. Played guitars, mandolin, keyboards, and I'm guessing it's my original keyboard drum and bass parts that I did at home…

tinkle them keys.... sounds great!
Have always loved this tune - great version!
Good Stuff! A twist on a classic!
Lovely stuff there!
..agree with Greg - also made me think of a possible James Bond theme song..
I suppose you meant 'Fifth'. A cross between Beethoven's celebrated disco period and "Knightrider".
