Hey Terry, just came over to check you out. Sounding good. Hey those are almost the same comments I made when I first started listening to you, Like digging out an old record in the attic.SDo you got some new fans going that's excellent. I might put some tunes here that don't qquite fit the flatpickers. Sounds good , I'll be back gonna look around.
Thanks for the reviews, the songs in this group are very folk oriented some songs are from the thirties and some much older. I wrote my offerings with these styles in mind.
Intentional or not you sound like a 78 rpm record - it is like listening to folk song from the 30's - that is very cool. I like you composition and obviously the production.
This is an old song that I finally remixed. All intruments are synthesizers, so there were only three of us this time.
The song is based on a free-form poem by Grant D. McLeman from Scotland that he had sent to me to put it to music.
Vocals…

Had to really push the good wife sing this one. After a couple of years of serious health scares she had lost all confidence in herself. Glad I did my 'Phil Spector' trick on her. ( No gun involved !! )
Ok lets get some oldies out, this and the next two tracks was recorded on my old recording studio machine. Ah, the good old days,rose tinted glasses of course !!! Or is it just me ......

This is an old 19h century sea shanty (or chanty) arranged around clawhammer-style banjo, with a bit of Irish whistle, faux bodhrán, and a goofy pseudo-accent to Irish it up a little. Just in time for St. Paddy's Day.
Warning: the chorus can…

A remix of this tune by a guy who really knows how to mix tracks proper...Andy found a producer type guy that liked this song but thought the mix was really bad...so I sent him all the individual tracks and this is what he came up with I think…
