It's likely the security certificate has expired ... I saw the message but did the usual bypass (in FireFox).
Yes, looks like it expired: Mon, 02 Jun 2025 23:59:59 GMT

My son bought me a book on Paul McCartney's songwriting, but I haven't read it yet. I'm struggling through a technical book on music he bought me on another occasion!!

Well done!! Some of those Applause's were on par with the Ovations they were copying .. particularly the early ones!!
Cheers
Richard
Sounds pretty good, but you've got to extend your vocal range beyond your comfort zone to get some dynamics into the vocals ... I think you can do it!!

I'd say this was a rock version of a pop song played on a guitalele a bit of a hybrid ? Plus its in reverse LOL

The transpose should be done in your external program (ie SetList Helper) .. it doesn't matter what key you import it in, the ChordPro format maps the relationship between the chords in the song (kinda like a Nashville chord system). After you import (or copy/paste), you can change the key which will shift all chords to their new value.

I've always thought this song Rock and Roll is where I hide was pretty under-rated:

I tried. I cannot post pics.

Wow, that's a nice looking guitar!! How do those pickups sound? Are they gold foil (as some guitars were in the 60's)?

Need some pics to see the guitar ...

Well done Richard !
I first heard it as the Grateful Dead played it, but liked the version by Van Morrison even better.Thanks for sharing

Thanks - yes, me in my youth thought this was one of the best songs they'd written, and as time went by it seems almost everybody has done a cover somewhere in their career ... !

Here is a blues song I wrote ( I will post shortly in songwriting as well)
Any chance you can play it? I'm never sure if I've got the right feel for the song with only chords ..
Cheers
Richard
This is St. James Infirmary blues, which is a song I know from the Perth band The Triffids:
This is the chord sequence https://www.chordie.com/chord.pere/www. … 67347.html - although the words I know are slightly different.

Richard
Thanks all for your comments!! I hope someone else adds a song soon ....

It's getting colder here, and I'm feeling that effect - but it's better than waking to an empty bladder and a cold wet bed ![]()

This is a recording of my song The Life I left Behind.

Nice, are you mixing this to get volumes, or just one microphone in the room? Guitar volume needs to come up a bit ...
Cheers
Richard

Cool - it was like a jazzy blues ... enjoyed it!
Cheers
Richard
neophytte, LOVED IT!!! that was awesome to watch, very impressive. Why aren't you playing BLUES more often?
Thanks! I'm writing a song around it ... but haven't got all the lyrics down yet ... content for a blues song has (pretty much) all been done before!!
Cheers
Richard
