Yeah, oh, esteemed one, the theme is crap lyrics Va fanculo a tutti, homerecordistas.

Good stuff, guys/gals. I'm off to Italy for a few days, but please keep it coming. A definite theme is emerging.

Regebro Brilliant. Have you ever visited Leighton Buzzard? I couldn't begin to write a song in Swedish - jag tikker om det, is about all I know and I think I got that wrong!

Great stuff - I like the train one, classic images and the second one had me LOL!

Well, ya can't keep a good thread down! Psychob. and Mystic R. - good, moody stuff, although I don't like the "vortex of truth" line, personally, y'understand? Keep 'em coming!

Good lyrics? Bite me.

Cobain did it the Hemingway way - minus a coupla loops and the Cuba thing. Hmmm, not my best analogy. Back to work.

May I declare this thread officially dead? I will now take the input posted so far (thank you one and all), put it through a blender, stick it over a sampled soul riff, with a Dave Clark Five drum pattern, find four unemployed pretty-boys from a lo-rent stage school, airbrush out their zits and...

V.Ray The man will still need a mixer. I'm assuming he's looking to minimise the number of boxes in his life and the Lantern has it right, in my book. Eight are great! TheoryWolf - if you've got the moolah, get yourself a Roland BR-8: 8-tracks, effects and a simple rhythm machine and all sorts...

Kris Kristofferson, when he was a professional songwriter, rather than a "singer/songwriter" - even then he could pull off a good one, e.g. "Jesus was a Capricorn".

Thanx, TrackRat, I'll try it tonight. Meanwhile, here's a little cheese for you: http:/www.ughsg.net/lala/minisk/04.jpg If you're female, gay or repressed, I apologise. Dirty Delso

I was trying to record a vocal using a line out the back of my Mackie Channel Insert into a digital recorder. There's something baffling in manual about pushing the quarter-inch jackplug in a certain amount, but any way I couldn't get a squawk out of the bugger. Desperate, because I was really...

I've got a VS840 and I think Musicmanx is showing off 'cos he's figured out to work it. Well, judging by everyone's comments, almost figured out how to work it.:-) My only regret is that I bought it before the BR-8 came out.

Nice one, Jude. Stiggy, sorry to hi-jack your topic, but some good stuff is starting to work through. Anyway, I did take to another thread, called Co-operative Lyric Writing, so blame the people who posted here! Some people respond well to a direct challenge, such as a set of lyrics which...

Nice one, Ron. It's got a real triplet feel. Hope it's not autobiographical!
