Re: The Family Tree

I'm not how you play his, but I'm having a heck of a good time with it. Lyrics have a wonderful, rollicking feel, and together with chords, create a down-home, country blues feel.

Re: The Family Tree

Yeah, I think I'm gonna change it to a straight up C blues.  Fits a little better, I think.

Ask not what Chordie can do for you, but what you can do for Chordie.

You know my family???

Live in the "now" - a contentment of the moment - the past is gone - the future doesn't exist - all we ever really have is now and it's always "now".

Re: The Family Tree

I like Jerome, fits right in, in my part of the country, smile.  Can't wait to here your blues version.

Re: The Family Tree

I like it Jerome, nice set of lyrics.

Re: The Family Tree

You got to record and post this Jerome. I've been playing around with it this afternoon, and I'm having a blast, but I'd really like to hear the official version.

Re: The Family Tree

I'm taking it to rehearsal tomorrow, so we'll see what happens with it.

Re: The Family Tree

OK. So this is what happened with it.  smile

I'm going to re-track the vocals due to some pretty egregious plosives and general not getting it right.   I also mixed this in headsets so if anyone would care to tell me how whacked the bass is, I'd appreciate it.  I'll get the monitors out later and mix it right.

Re: The Family Tree

Jerome

Can't help but laugh when I read the lyrics -    I am sure there are a thousand towns that that have that scenario.  Thanks for the smile.
