Hi Jerry,

You said that you used step #5 and the preview was fine.

Did you then follow step #6 and click on the 'Save' to actually save your correction as you do not indicate in your reply that you have done so? The preview is only to check that you are happy with the changes you have made, it is not permanently changed until you save it.

Hi Mark,

Please write to my personal e-mail address and we can soon sort this out for you.

Roger

Congratulations, I hope that you are doing your share of the night feeds and nappie (diapers in the U.S. I think) changing .

Roger

I am impatient myself, hoping it is as versatile as it appears and secondly, having to pre-order for September, hoping it is not a scam.

Roger

Same as any other guitar. Remove all the strings, clean and oil the fretboard (and the bridge if it is untreated timber). Clean the body and headstock. Fit the new strings and tune up, stretch the strings and retune.

Roger

Nice job, and a good balance between vocals and guitar.

I love the line: "An old familiar ghost he has returned". I have a cat called Ghost who has been missing for four days. I was reading and listening to this just after I had just found her, hungry, thirsty, but safe.   

Roger

Well done, a definite improvement. The lead at the end is a nice touch and the balance for the solo is fine. The overall balance is better but the vocals are still too low. Your guitar is more prominent than your voice; it is a song, so the most important thing is the vocals, the guitar should be an accompaniment to your voice and at the moment it is the other way round. It is often modesty, when you are more confident with your playing than your singing, that leads to this. Don't be shy, we want to hear your voice.

Again it is much better than your first attempt.

Having been away to the arctic UK for a couple of weeks I have not had chance to listen to this before. It is a very moving song with a great performance from Phill and the images add to the atmosphere of the performance.

Well done to both songwriter and performer.

If Kim said "Yes" then congratulations, if she said "No" I will have to come and take you out for a pint.

I am sure she said "Yes" so I wish all three of you all the very best.

Nylon strings are renown for stretching for ages. When I replace strings on a classical I will leave it tuned up two steps overnight i.e.: F#, B, E, A, C# and f# (I tune it normally for use during the day) and after a couple of nights I find most of the stretch has been taken out of them.

Hi Ark,

Friends of Chordie is still active on MySpace but I have not accessed it for ages and, when I did to put this song up, I found it was a nightmare to use so I abandoned the idea. It took me ages to find 'Wrapped in Happiness' and I gave up trying to find the others on there.

Roger

Thanks guys for your over generous comments about my music and recording. I posted elsewhere that I had not done anything for a while, mainly because I am not good at writing lyrics, so you guys gave an ideal platform to start from.

If anyone else has a different idea of how this song should be please get writing your music, make your own arrangement and recording, I would be more than pleased to hear it. I remember several years ago James McCormick wrote a song which he, Ken (Upyerkilt) and I recorded independently and three very different songs emerged from the same chords and lyrics. So don't be shy .

Thanks again

Roger
