Such an incredible mix of sounds. It felt like a junkyard in space. Then when the music came in I thought it fitted really well, music all in bits like the gramaphones. Ooo, the swaying from one ear to the other at the end is effective too.

It's easy to miss the music and percussion in this track because of Reg's outstanding vocal - excellent cover all round guys.
Nice bit of glass rubbing at the end there Chris!
What is that sound?

Well, the Unicorn in the glass dust may be the way to you, but Bee's voice is the way to me.
Don't tell Bee, but MY dreams are slightly different: in them I hear her telling me how naughty I am.
You did well with this Chris, it is really bizarre, just like a weird dream! I like the tinkling on the ivories and the strange meeowing sound of the guitar together. Works really well!
Please - this is not the concept I asked her contribution for. I didn't feel right putting her voice up without a credit. But.... this doesn't do justice - I got things I need to do but I will have a better setting.
Not what I was expecting with a Bee vocal. Cool piece. And, while I can only hope to hear Bee singing when I pass, I hope it is something more along her typical angelic lines.
Well, I have been dying to hear this one!
Sounds cosmic to say the least! Nice modern sounding approach with a very sexy rhythm. It's great Chris! Love it!

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…
ohhh I didn't see you had uploaded this! To answer your question - it was a Yamaha - can't remember the model - it had 3 pedals - I agree about the low end but the high end was really weak in my opinion.
Added a little more to this nice little change of strumming patterns played as an excuse to write a little love song.
I FOUND LOVE
You know I love you more than I
Ever thought one simple man could
You know I need you more than I
Ever…

finally got to hear this. there is a distinct didgeridoo sound to it, especially when you start. I wonder what would happened if you bowed the string. - and - how did you pull the wire out of a tire - I want to do that.
Lyrics:
======
I hate you when you breathe. Could you stop?
Waking up is hard to do when sleep never comes
But your ugly faces woke me up...
Callous sycophants
I know you too well to rest again
I'll stay up forever. I'll be ready
I've seen…

I have the midi files saved if you would like them? although some of this is performance midi records If I can say that? ;)
A composition for 3 piece jazz band, tenor sax, fretless bass, and drums in 14 equal divisions of the octave and 5/4 time. This was realized using Garritan Jazz and Big Band sample set and Sonar X1.
I'm going to put this in my profile if it will fit.
the question of how microtonality is perceived and why is a hotly debated one on the tuning list. There seems to be, in general, but not in all cases, shared intervals around the world, like the 5th. However non-western cultures use, in general, microtonal tunings. !2 equal notes to an octave is a relatively recent invention in the west. 300 years ago it was common for what would be now called a microtonal tuning to be in common, everyday use. As best as can be determined the push for 12 equal was all about changing keys in a single piece of music. If you take the tuning of the middle ages, Pythagorean, you find you can't play in any key despite having 12 notes because the intervals between the notes are not equally spaced. As a result when you take a pure chord and move it up or down the octave with the same distance between the notes it could become something hideous. 12 Equal solves that problem at the expense of detuning all notes, some more than others.

Hi Ricard, thanks for the listen and comment. It is probably hard not to hear 14 edo as out of tune since it so close to 12 but not quite there. I think then your sense of it being flattened and less bright is the result of the tuning.

This has inspired me to get my guitar out :)

Such an emotive piece. Beautifully performed. The ending is very different from the main part, almost like a new beginning.
An excitingly mysterious ride, perfectly formed.
Mighty cover!!!
Excellent cover great vocals Reg.
great track!

HI Vaisvil. very cool rendition. creative in all ways u did this cover and made it your own...great tribute. loved it all the way god bless NEIL .
Well, the Unicorn in the glass dust may be the way to you, but Bee's voice is the way to me. Don't tell Bee, but MY dreams are slightly different: in them I hear her telling me how naughty I am.
Trippy dreaming.....dreamin....dreami....dream...drea....dre...dr...d.....
You did well with this Chris, it is really bizarre, just like a weird dream! I like the tinkling on the ivories and the strange meeowing sound of the guitar together. Works really well!
Yes, it's a great song. Lovely to hear it again.

I know your in there Bethan....RUN!!!....RUN AWAY....AWAY FROM THE LIGHT.....
I loved that album.

Well, I have been dying to hear this one! Sounds cosmic to say the least! Nice modern sounding approach with a very sexy rhythm. It's great Chris! Love it!
A lovely rich sounding, string based track. Wonderful deep last note, finished it off nicely.
Wow, has it already been a year?? Are you attending the gathering this year?

the scope of this is totally impressive
one of my favorite songs - done really well!
Beautiful Richard!!
this is an excellent song!
finally got to hear this. there is a distinct didgeridoo sound to it, especially when you start. I wonder what would happened if you bowed the string. - and - how did you pull the wire out of a tire - I want to do that.
This is cool! You made the google guitar sound like its going through a *huge* stack.
wow. very powerful words and music.
this is excellent - and unique!
lovely Richard! Sounds light music for a candle light dinner.
thank you for the listen and comment on my seagull improv.
Reg - he did do something like that one day - and yes it was great!
and the excellence of the music should be overlooked too.
Reg - you are one heck of a story teller! Have you considered writing a novel or short story?
Hi John, I like this one.
you should be creating music for sci-fi films!
I wish AT had a repeat button. I'm downloading this - great piece Norm!

This is beautiful! I love the bluesy feel. Would it be ok if I try to add to this?
