Nice one Richard, some nice guitar work in there.     

Good to see you entering something this month Brian, must be all those gigs got you going again smile   The guitar intro and parts throughout the song, reminded me of the rhythm to the song Tallahatchie Bridge, Ode to Billie Joe.

Beamer, great to see you back here.  Wow, wow is all I can say to your songs on suno.  What an amazing tool.  Love every single one of those songs you have shared with us that you created in suno.  AI certainly is amazing with what it can do.  I have a foot in both camps for and against it but still am so impressed by what AI can do.  Also, thanks for sharing your wedding video and a very big congratulations from me to you both.  What an awesome wedding, very unique.  Hope we continue to see you pop back here and share what your doing with life and your latest creations smile     

So lovely to hear from you Strummerbill, a really nice surprise to see you back here.  I remember you very much on here with your great conversations and very positive attitude to everyone and everything.  You are truely missed on here.

Comment left on FSOTM TIGLJK, but awesome song once again smile     

TIGLJK, that was another great song by you! I don't know how you manage to write songs so readily, they just seem to flow from you.  You are very talented with song writing.   And it is October that you entered this song where anything goes smile

Thanks Grah, cracked ribs are worse than the broken bones in my arm.  But thankfully, ribs are on the mend.  I can now get in and out of bed without pain!

Wishing you a quick recovery Jan.

OH NO !!!

Hope your arm recovers quickly and you are not in much pain.
Glad you will be still checking in, always enjoy your feedback !

Jim

Thanks TIGLJK, thankfully no surgery required (which at one stage the Drs were talking about).  So halfway to recovery and cast taken off.  Then the hand technician (as they call them these days) to help with recovery.  I am missing playing but this too shall pass and I hopefully will be back with a vengence smile

and  one  from 10yrs  ago  for  Richard https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CkicwMwuCPo

The newer one was pretty good (had a good sound for what looks like a phone only video), but the pub looks pretty empty ...

For the older one, were you using backing tapes or a looper??

I was chatting with someone the other day and I'd forgotten I'd put this up a while ago from 1995: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pVnirXS … ;index=108

neophytte, sound quality was of the era, but I totally got the vibe smile  Wish I had gotten into music when I was younger rather than in my more mature years lol, wonder where it would have led .......

I loved both of these neophytte.  You nailed them both.  The spider one we have heard b4 and I enjoyed it just as much as the first time, probably more.  In both, the visual ambience added to them.   What were you using on the second song to change the vocals?  What camera are you using to film as it scans around the room?  Very affective and adds to the total performance.

Thanks!! A while ago I traded my Zoom R24 recorder up to a Zoom L-12 recorder (you can see it on the desk in front of me in a few songs), which allows me to record tracks individually - so the guitar is on one track, the vocals on one track, the keyboards on one track - then I run it through Logic and tweak each track and balance everything out. It's a bit of a process, but something I enjoy playing around with ...

For the video, I've just got two iPhones on stands; when I've completed the audio as above, I drop that and the two iPhone videos into iMovie and use some Ken Burns effects and cross blur and things like that ... it's another thing that you get better at the more you use it. 

Cheers

Richard

Oh how I wish I lived closer to you neophytte, to learn about all this stuff from you.  I am such a novice with all this stuff.

Hope things improve for you.   So true, we can pick our friends but not our neighbors.  Your sure it isn`t your electric, acoustic guitar amplified going full blast making the neighbors curtains move, twitch big_smile

Great so see you pop in here again Mojo.  A great song, thoroughly enjoyed listening to it and hope you will keep them coming.  You have a great talent.     

As for me I am out of action for a while, broke my arm last Thursday, so in a cast for 6 weeks.  So will have to sit back and enjoy listening to your performances and comment (type) with my non writing hand.     

easybeat,  good lyrics in this song and very true, not everyone is cut out to be a Govt man, pencil pusher.   Thankfully we have people on the tools as well smile

Bit quiet with entries this month anyone else got one of their performances to share?     

TIGLJK,  great lyrics in this song and the performer did a great job of it.  Who is the singer and guitar player?
