Re: JULY 2025 FSOTM – COUNTRY (24 replies, posted in Featured Song of the Month)
Here are my very late entries and probably first entries in over a year. I will check SoundCloud myself actually to see when I last put anything up. Anyway, what I am realizing is, "Use it or Lose it". That goes for anything including anything musical, instruments, singing. I am quite surprised how the vocals slacken, and the strum become just that, strum, strum, strum if you don't keep practicing or playing.

That was really good Richard, this version was great. I think whenever we have accompanying musicians play with us, our performances go way up, simply because the other instruments make a big difference. Awesome.
PS: On a completely unrelated topic, I like the decor in his house, I kept staring at it, very nice. Loved the sign with the names on it, like road signs.

I also did this one a few years ago on banjo:

The banjo gave it a completely different effect Richard, nice to see something different with a well known song.

You were saying? ![]()
A very different version of Waltzing Matilda Richard lol but I enjoyed it, well done. I never thought of it as a Country song to be honest. So, I looked it up and apparently it`s a Bush Ballard / or some say Folk music. It`s definitely an unofficial national anthem for the Aussies
Anyway, you did good, even if it was hard to hear the vocals ;P

You can try rubbing organic castor oil into your aching joints, especially at night before bed so it soaks in through the night. But use whenever you think to put it on. It won't work straight away, but it's one of those things that the more you use it, the more it helps.

I like Louis Armstrongs Jazz stuff and I like Amy Winehouse jazz style though she did cross into other genres as well. I like some jazz but I find a lot of it just to slow for me.

Another rock song I wrote:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dnBp8NRrThA
Or the non-video version is here:
https://richardmortimer.bandcamp.com/track/that-night
Bass, drums and guitar were recorded from a jam onto an 8 track analog recorder in the 90's sometime, with the song being chopped up and adding vocal and effects in 2023. My brother and I worked on this song a long time ago, it's changed a lot since the original deep synth version.
That Night - Richard Mortimer

Really good neophytte, the whole package put together is great. Have you posted this previously? I feel like I have watched this one before? Anyway, it was worth watching again if you have
