I started out wanting to just do a simple live naked stereo track and everything turned to crap! Sooooo I had to do some doctoring. It still sounds pretty bad but I'm posting it anyway.
Given that I still suck on the guitar and my guitar needs new pots.
I wrote this for a close friend:
"Tears...
I posted this in the mp3 clinic. Overall, I got some really good suggestions on how to improve the mix. There were a couple of posts giving me songwriting critique and one that hit me between the eyes was that I had "one too many cliches".
It's time to take this puppy to the SONGWRITING...
Got some help from a friend and it turned out really good. Toki was kind enough to add drums, bass and keys for me. This incidently is his mix, fresh off his NWR site. He did the mix after having been awake for like 28 hours......It sounds pretty damn good to me! I can't wait to hear the .wav...
Hey all,
Just received this last night from Toki. It's a tune I wrote for my wife. Toki added drums, bass and keys and uploaded it to his site in mp3 where I got it and then uploaded back to my site. Can't wait to hear the .wav version! Thanks Toki, you did a great job!
"Powerless"...
Any of you out there have a suggestion as to what software I need to build a website that will stream mp3's? Hopefully I won't have to mortgage the house to get it! Any insight would be helpful. Thanks in advance.

.....in the spray can called finger ease? Is it Pam or something like that? I used to use it years ago on the acoustics, but it's been a long time. Never knew exactly what it was. I don't even know why I'm wondering about it. . . . .Nurse! I'll take my medication now.

She had this thing over in the mp3 forum where it promptly got lost on the second page. A song she wrote for her brother.

Here's a weird one for ya! Just finished doing three tracks and went to d/l to computer. tr.01 went fine, tr.02 got about 600k and hung up........guess what......you can't cancel the d/l once it's started....you can't even turn the machine off with the switch! I had to disconnect the power...
Hey all,
With all this talk lately about breaking rules or even having rules, I wonder about this tune I wrote. Check it out and let me know what you think.
Please overlook the sloppy guitar. "It's only April"

BTW...I also updated "April" with a re-mix.
I originally scrapped the lyrics to this song and it was my intention to have someone else write new lyrics as a part of this collaboration. Had a few express some interest, but I guess they got busy at the last minute....so we went with the original lyrics.
I had the pleasure of working with...
OK,
First the DISLAIMER.......Be advised that the guitar has 15 or 20 screw-ups, oh and a mic pop @ 1:43.
This started out in the studio trying to get a fuller sound out of my guitar and then just expanded into a written song. First time I ever wrote and recorded a song all in the same day. The...
A while back, someone offered to supply whoever was interested with some agreements that he had drawn up. These agreements were songwriter / public performance oriented. The individual asked any interested parties to e-mail or PM him and he would get them out after he returned from a weekend...
A lot of you here may already know that Alex Petty invited me to play at an open mic he hosts in a nearby town, so I accepted.
I arrived a little later than I wanted to, I figured I'd be able to sneak in the door without being seen, but Alex was tuning his guitar when I walked in and caught me...
Back in the seventies I had a friend who used to play a song that I never took the time to learn, don't remember who wrote it and only remember a few lyrics.
A week or so ago, Buffalo Bob mentioned some words from Ogden Nash that made me think of the song. I'd like to find the lyrics somewhere...
I just bought a Kodak card reader that came with a driver disk and a Kodak Easyshare software disk. If I don't install the easyshare software, will the reader still function?

I think it would have had an tremendous impact on my songwriting. Even when I was young and my voice was halfway decent, I never had the range or register this guy has.
Just try it.......I mean, write a song where your voice wont go. Your brain just says "what the hell's wrong with you? You...
Long time.....no post my friend! Hope all is well. I WOULD like to hear from you though. If you are injured or otherwise incapacitated please disregard this message. If you are on vacation........well I guess that's a good enough reason too. Check your PM's.
With all this snow here I guess I'll...
