A couple of days holiday from work so I've been busy recording... :-)
Two new songs.
Sense
Sense first broke cover when I did the Live in the Living Room thing, this is the full studio version!
And here is Homeward bound.
Homeward Bound has been a chord pattern looking for a song/lyrics for years, last year I finally wrote the lyrics and this is the final version. The solo was semi-worked out but then took a life of its own. It is possible to jam with yourself? I seem to have done so here the ending just a jam based on how the rhythm part first recorded ended! I was going to fade the solo out but this seems to (almost) work as an ending so left it in!
Enjoy
Postscript - In the end I deleted the first version of Sense I'd uploaded and re-uploaded it. The compression really messed up the sound of the 12 string at the start. Exporting from Audacity (where I do my final editing) to an uncompressed WAV gave much better result than either MP3 or WAV Compressed... You learn something new every day...

Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip about being able to export from Audacity as an uncompressed WAV. I tend to do things as mp3s, out of habit, but I won't any more. Compressed music is a PITA (or the ear I should say).
ReplyDeleteAw. Sweet and tender songs. Well done, you.
ReplyDeleteThese are great! I especially like Homeward Bound. It's got a dreamy quality to it and I love soloing.
