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…
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…
Hello, I thought I'd upload a track from 1993's Strange Beauty today. It was reviewed by the WMR (Weekly Module Reviews) team (in 1996 I'm guessing.) These reviews were published on "uesnet" about music posts to the same system - Usenet is an…

5 string bass guitar solo.
Here is me and my 5 string bass, which I really, really like playing despite the pain in my pinky to make those stretches I hear in my mind. The name seems stupid - but way better than STE-018cn.

After Sebs football today I went up into the loft searching for an old guitar a friend gave me a few years back. When I lifted the lid of the case I saw that the tone switch was pulled off leaving bare wires. I couldn't remember if it worked or…

Nicely done.
Nice one mate great job.
Wild mix mate very cool.
Very very nice!!!
Agree with Norm - and this is a great song that's new to me. Lovely.
Oh man! Arranged like a Bond theme! Bold, bright and brilliant!
Raw blues - love this kind of thing. Am now going to analyse the crap out of your improvised lyrics! :D
Great sound!
The parts around 2.12 are completely uplifting - great stuff!
Perfect title - great conceptualisation. Check out me and my long woooooooooooooooooooords.
Well done. I love the synth work.
interesting,, not sure exactly what i think about it, but it's always neat to hear your musical thoughts
I like your spare take on this!
wild tones...duel survival.
