Peatles rocked more than 12 bars i can assure you.
last time i saw him he didn`t have a beer in his hand,i nearly didn`t recognize him.

Gidday all.
lately i`ve been thinking,There is a lot of music that doesn`t get played anymore.
Almost a moral crusade,my question is!
A.  Should we stop playing music  because the artist is a poedafile now? Eg Gary Glitter
      If your answer is yes
B.   How about a murderer? eg Phil Spector.
      If yes
C.   How about a wife beater?
D.   how about a pick pocket?
It`s a funny old world of mixed morals,we celebrate drug addled rock stars.Bad language/Rap
D.  Or do we just let music speak for itself?
Come on Chordians get thinking about this one.Love to hear your answers.

Thanks for the listens & comments on soundcloud.
I`m not like you clever people who can play it like the original.
So i just close my eyes & see what happens,it often comes as a surprise to me
to hear what i`ve done when i play it back.somehow i changed the chords as well, go figure!
but having a ball,i guess that is the main thing.
i`ve been getting a bit of flack about my stuff lately,but hey, no problem.At least they took the time to listen,
all you can ask for is an honesty opinion.
So thinking of changing my name to `Audio Assault` what ya think?

Sorry Jandle.i didn`t want to spook the horses.hence To Love Somebody.
How about` Nights On Broadway` it`s not a favourite of mine at all.
I`ve chosen this as i think it will be a different challenge,to the usual stuff.

Gidday Jandle
many of the songs suggested are of a similar type.
so i`m thinking lets rattle the cage & do a Bee Gees disco song.
Now calm down, maybe settle for one of the great songs ever.
`To Love Somebody`

Gidday All
thought i better support song of the month.
jammed a quicky version,i`ll put it on soundcloud for a few days if ya interested.

`Ordinary stuff `to me means. everyday stuff/uninteresting/maybe even mundane.
the things we take for granted.

`Another Day` by Paul McCartney proves that ordinary stuff makes great songs.
Penny Lane is another,a classic example of ordinary lives.
Of course there`s heaps more,but these two songs came to mind first.
Has anyone else got examples of songs about ordinary stuff?

good to see everyone hears it differently.i guess thats what music is all about.
i`m keen on a little bit of tamborine backing the guitar on the stripped down part.
you`ve done an excellent job on this track.

Many thanks for you guys that have taken the time to have a listen.
If you didn`t like it thats all good too.At least you took the time to listen.
Thanks,EB.

Jandle
yeah looking forward to putting ideas toward a song or two
But i think it`s best to throw some ideas around for someone elses song.
Let them make decisions on what to use or not.
this is what we did with Phill.He took little bits of our ideas & created /performed the songs.
So it`s Phills song just `A little help from my friends`

BGD
please feel free to email me.
I will forward to Peatle as well,we can throw some ideas around.
We won`t be offended if u don`t use them,lets talk, see what happens?
I`m sure Phill would love to join in with the conversation as well.
This applies to all chordians,lets talk,throw ideas around.
thanks.EB

The weather here is changing,summer is just about gone.
I guess many of you will be going the other way,into warmer weather.
I just put up a new song reminding myself of summer gone.
Maybe it will get u in a summer mood in anticipation of weather to come.

Phill pretty well did everything.On the first one Peatle & i added a few words.
I guess the main thing we contributed was support, encouragement & communication.
same applies to the Buddy song,but this time it was my idea & i started it off with
the title & a verse.Clever Phill did everything else.
We all had a great time emailing back & forward sorting it all out.
I would love to do this with other Chordians if anyone is interested.

Bohemian Rhapsody.
this would be a goody?
