Topic: An Original up for Review
Howdy,
Yup I'm Back,
Here's an original I wrote a while back and I recently changed the lyrics some and I come up with a different progression also. I used a flat pick and a J-45 into a Genz Benz Compak 300 Amp and recorded it with a Zoom Q3.
The song come about after a trip to the mailbox and all that was in there were a stack of credit card applications, and the news of the day was the housing and credit market was gonna take us all down the drain.
anyway here's a vid
