Wow bird calls, a bass and an organ. You have a complete band.
We were a four piece - here's a video from the mid 90's of the same song - from the best hand-held technology of the era, complete with shaky hand and people walking in front 
Thanks for an interesting topic!!
I can't remember when my Dad bought the stereo, which replaced our (family) reel to reel deck, but I do remember it had a record player - we had a modest record collection, a lot of classical selections, some Rick Wakeman, some Sky, the pan flutes of George Zamfir, amongst others - then Dad left and took all those with him, meanwhile my sister got a cassette recorder and started collecting more contemporary artists (ABBA, Hits of (insert year)) which I started listening to ... it wasn't until we moved house that I inherited the record player (and some of the records) and started my paper round that I started listening to other (Rock!) music. Then I discovered all these secret albums I'd never heard before (Deep Purple, Led Zepplin, etc) at some dingy place long ago.
My parents didn't play music at home much - my Dad has a couple of mandolins, but only knows one or two tunes (owns them more for their aesthetic value), Mum took up the Omnichord later in life, and was in a couple of choirs for her local church. I bought myself an electric guitar at 19 but didn't really take it up for another couple of years after that ... then met some people and started to play, and haven't really stopped since then ...

wow bands/duo/solo you do it all.enjoying your music.
How about some lyrics /chords on songwriting forum.
Sure, was there anything you were after in particular? I've been sorting my music out slowly, so got most of the lyrics sorted, and a few to scan and PDF ...
Cheers
An instrumental from a different duo, I played the acoustic guitar and my friend played the strat with his marshall stack:

I can't remember my first song, but I remember the Paul Kelly song "To her door" was amongst the first ... http://www.chordie.com/chord.pere/www.g … 26227.html
Welcome from another newbie (I'm not longer the new kid on the block!!) - whilst your diagnosis sucks, spare a thought for those people who go to work one day and never come back, who didn't have such luck ... 3 years is a long time to make some good memories, so make the most of it while you can, because some of us won't know when our time will be up; I've started recording videos for my kids because having them at such a late age, I'm not sure I'll be around to see grandkids ... wishing you all the best ...
My mixer is super basic. I have none of that. But thank you very much for the ideas!
What make/model is it??
It's a pretty simple mixer. Only has one out, not one out per Channel.
If you have FX send/receive on your mixer, you can set one channel (vocal) to "send" on FX1, and the other channel (guitar) to "send" on FX2, then use that as your stereo mix into the computer (or whatever) as left and right tracks, which gives you a rudimentary 2 channel mix .... you'll probably still get some crosstalk, but from your previous posts it sounds like that won't be too much of an issue for you.
HTH!
Songs from a particular year? ie Pick 2 songs from 1957 ... Google will give you a list of songs from any particular year ...
One, two.... as many as you like (I think). The purpose is somewhat to get folks to "stretch their legs" a bit and perhaps get off "the beaten path" so to speak.
Time, by Pink Floyd
Streets of London, Ralph McTell
I'm not in love, 10cc
I did like your Jim Croce rendition (same chords I use) and the second time through I played along. I fingerpicked and it sounded like a good duet, right up to the part where you used an A where I transition through C#, F#m, A..... I think my timing slipped (stumbled). Thinking I might use your rendition as a backing track and mix in mine (as a duet) and see what happens..... if you've no objection. I'll send you a copy of the finished recording for your approval. It's been awhile since I have done any recording, so patience please.
No objection whatsoever - will be happy to hear it!!
Cheers
Richard
tell us about your music tastes, instruments of choice, etc.
Thanks again to all who made me feel welcome - currently using a Maton EBG808CL performer - although mine is about 10 years older than the one on the page ...

The rules seem to be somewhat fluid and (by mutual assent) barely enforced. It's all just a format for fun and learning, really.
:thumbsup:
Richard just listened to your vocals you have a good voice. I liked the arrangement also with the backing vocals and nice playing.
Thanks again, and to all who said hello back!!
Cheers
Richard
Not many UK suggestions ........... anymore before I close this down?
Do we need to do them all? Can I suggest others? How about "Lalena" by Deep Purple ...
Cheers
Richard
On that note, just went and watched your cover of "I had to say I love you" .... very nice ..... you covered it well, timing great, and you had a lovely soft voice with that particular song which suited it. Well done
Thanks, my voice isn't great, but trying to get it better - on that note, was I supposed to do "Sundown" as well?
Cheers
Richard
Hi neophytte, great to see you on board
Ta!
Thanks for all the welcome's!!
Hi Richard, nice to meet you. I am a bit up to the neck in it at present but I will look at your music later. (I might even listen too
See, that's the problem on the other side of the world - instead of being up to your neck, you'd only be up to your ankles 
Your earlier comment has intrigued me; does standing on your head all the time mean that you have to do a handstand when you wish to use the loo?
No, because the water goes the other way ... 
Cheers
Richard
I just listen to your track Richard. Nice guitar and the lady has a good voice. I just play piano and guitar by feel but recently I have stoped playing due to a medical condition.
Hope you feel better soon, these were my vocals from the same album http://neophytte.mine.nu/audio/mp3/10-Beauty_Queen.mp3
Enjoy!
Richard
