Hey eveyone ............. if your songs aren`t ones from this months FSOTM ......... they should be posted in ~ My local band and me ~  cheers  smile

Sorry Jandle. I didn't mean to break the rules. I thought the way we did challenge months was that once you met the challenge that you could post other songs as a challenge.

That's an interesting take - I didn't see it that way, but maybe the original post should read something along the lines of "you can challenge anyone else within the context of the songs mentioned" ... ('cause I made the same mistake, but mine was just me getting carried away with a session of playing and recording, because the wife and kids went to bed early, and I got some rare time to myself ....)

Cheers

Re: NOVEMBER 2017 FSOTM - CHALLENGE THEME

Zurf .......... yeah probably a bit confusing.  But this month was if you go back and read it, was the listed songs which people had suggested for their first ever songs they attempted.  So this month was to for anyone to attempt those songs that people suggested last month BUT they could also challenge anyone to try and cover any one of the listed songs this month (hope that makes sense) verses other CHALLENGE MONTHS where we get to challenge any one for ANY song  you want smile

Re: NOVEMBER 2017 FSOTM - CHALLENGE THEME

Ok,  I managed to fit another FSOTM song in tonight ~Sylvia`s Mother~ ........... brought back memories of a song we used to sing years ago.  It was definately a very quick take tonight as the hour is getting late over here and it`s time for some sleep.  My second take ........... still trying to learn guitar again and cajon was not the best but to tired to do another take.

Re: NOVEMBER 2017 FSOTM - CHALLENGE THEME

A late entry (?) Jambalaya:

https://youtu.be/lQ3Oiwn5l1c

I crushed my thumb in a microphone stand, damn it hurts, so playing my wife's Uke with a pick ... I must admit I didn't know this song until we did it at our jam session last week, which is why I didn't try it before, but it's pretty easy to do (2 chords!!)

Enjoy!!

Thanks ... thumb is improving but not quite fixed yet ... I'm patiently waiting as the skin is still a bit raw and I don't generally use a pick ...
