hi dino, walmart has a uk branch called asda, and they sell house, car and life insurance as well as lots of other finacial stuff like credit cards. i'm not with them my self but with a competitor called tesco which are another supermarket, i find their sevices are good and recomend them to anyone. of course they could be totally different in the us! check them out first.

hi beamer, if this is the prog you were thinking of, with jimmy page and the edge and a third guy i cant remember the name of (shame on me) it was very good veiwing, we had it on TV, sky arts 1, and if they do the usual, it's play again, it's well worth a watch, and you were right youtube has pulled it at least in the UK.

it's only now that i've retired that i can afford it. but i'm only going to buy stuff i really need, and to be honest i dont need another guitar as i have 7; 2 acoustics, 1- 12 string, 1 bass, a strat, a kort (yuk) and my beloved tele, that's enough for any retirement?
You can never have too many guitars!
so many guitars but only two hands, isnt God cruel?
Nice one Phill! Good story song, with a nice hook.
As I was reading the words I was thinking more bluesy. I think you did a good job of it with a country feel though!
woops! i didn't realize i'd put any chorus fx on there....? it's most likely that i'd used a 12 string guitar on one channel and a six string on the other. having said that i recorded all the tracks, (about 8 maximum) on my DP24, then transferred them to a paid for program called Ableton, on which i used their mixer and EQ. you may be able to get a cut-down version off the net...Ableton Live 8. comes with full instructions.

excellent, very emotive. great voice/guitar and recording. i'm jealous....
Phill
I like like it a lot , even though " besotted" is $50 word that I had to look up. I guess I would be stuck with obsessed or infatuated with if I was writing it - but now i am a bit smarter thanks to you
The verse
"And I can say with utmost certainty.
She will make you want her constantly. " reminds of the guitar you wanted for so long - and then when you got it in you hands the feeling wasn't there.Good work my friend
Jim
hi jim, just click website, sorry i got a little high brow with the words, but that's how they came to me. i cant decide if it's a warning to someone or a character assassination? answers on a post card......
I like it phill,discribes my ex- wife very well.I fingerpicked it in a blues unpluged style and it sounds good. It probley sounds good country style also.
my ex too! i've tried it in a rock and/or pop style but it didn't work (for me) i don't know if anyone realises but it is on my-space if you'd like to click web on the left
Phil,
I noted a bit of hidden wordplay,
"And when she had her fill, she moved on to you."
When she had her fill of Phill, eh?
i was wondering if anyone would notice that, it just tickled my fancy
i have a theory that explains all the spam that no one reads or wants.
there are internet companies that pay surfers to plant this muck anywhere they can, it matters not that the forums accross the web are nothing to do with what they are selling or that no one will read it, they just get handed their 30 pieces of silver and they go away happy. when they get banned they just get another email address and do it again.
thanks to all our diligent members who report them, cos if we cant get rid of them then there'll be no room for relevent conversation.

Ahhh... Kind of like that fantasy that once acted out isn't as good in real life as it was in your head huh? Um, wait... no, don't read into that. Or do. Whatever. LOL! Sorry to hear it wasn't quite what you'd dreamed of Phill!!
your so right, most young guys have pictures of gorgeous semi naked women on their walls, i had pictures of john's rickie. whne i saw it in the shop, it looked so.....pick me up and buy me. so i picked it up and felt sick. the weight was all wrong, it played like a cheap uke. flat frett board...no, no, no!
they had a semi version which was everything the black one wasn't, but i'm not going to buy that either, or i might.....
I had the chance too buy one years ago but did not have the cash,wish I would have got a small lone for it,they are worth a lot now and real good guitars.
it's only now that i've retired that i can afford it. but i'm only going to buy stuff i really need, and to be honest i dont need another guitar as i have 7; 2 acoustics, 1- 12 string, 1 bass, a strat, a kort (yuk) and my beloved tele, that's enough for any retirement?
I love Rick basses. My rreams involve playing bass as well as Paul McCartny and haven't a thing to do with the instrument. I've got an Ovation Magnum 3 bass that is far more bass than I can manage.
i went round the beatles museum inliverpool on my 60th birthday and almost bought a rickie violin bass, it cost 1000 pounds or so...common sense prevailed, i only use the bass guitar for recording.
Phill ...
Always a letdown when something like this happens. I got to play a guitar I've always wanted (Gibson L4 hollow-body) just before Christmas, and was horribly disappointed. It had a very flat, muddy sound. Hard to describe the feeling afterwards, but almost approaches despair.
i felt the same with a blonde gibson semi-acoustic (another john lennon fantasy) felt and sounded awful, ah well!
Sometimes dreams should just remain dreams - once attained whats next?
sounds like this should be on your sig line, never the less.... true

Yep, and it doesn't take much to make a guitar happy--just a light dusting and some new strings. Plus, when she's not sounding right, all you have to do is twist her knobs--trying doing that to your wife . . . actually, that works sometimes, but usually only on the honeymoon.
no comment...:D

i've had a couple of wives too, but they can shout louder than a 100 watt amp...believe me, i know
Phill
Should have bought it, you can never have enough guitars !

I WANT THAT SHIRT....
i cant say where this came from, i'd been listening to the car radio and they were playing gospel music in a blues style, so how it came out as....country, i dont know. i have finnished the recording and will be putting it up shortly. please give it a listen and comments will be very welcome.
phill
this is an out and out country song
i've been a beatles fan since they were first on the radio with "my bonnie" before they got famous! the object of my desire was john lennon's black and white rickenbacker....oooh yeah!
today i walked into a music shop to discover just that in left hand, i wanted it....so i tried it, and hated it! there was another one there in the style of george harrisons semi-acoustic rickenbacker, which i didn't want, but i tried it anyway and loved it. trouble was the selector switch was faulty (they wouldn't have known if i hadn't tried it) so all the pick-ups sounded the same...end of.
the moral here has to be; let your dreams be dreams or be dissapointed.

robert, valentines day is in february...:lol:
another cracker, simple but to the point
hi jimmy, another cracker. simple in lyric and chording and a Bminor i see....phill
i've just gone back and listened to it again and i've come to the conclusion that i dont like it...
hi amy, not far from how i pictured it, well done, though you never mentioned that you'd changed the key to Bb...very nice.
phill
i'm not going to state the obvious...ha ha!
i wore a leather strap for a couple of years (on my wrist) when i was getting used to playing for a long time on stage. i dont get much bother with it now...still gigging though.
i find fender necks dont put so much strain on the wrist...
