That sounded quite good - I was watching a special on Leonard Cohen the other day, and it gave me vibes of that ...

Russ reported this thread but I cant see why?     

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

Re: NOVEMBER 2024 – RANDOM WORDS

easybeat, well done on your original song.  Maybe a little repetitive on the line 'The Rain" on this one when I listened to it but just my opinion.  Guitar work awesome as always.

neophytte, nicely performed on this cover.  Interesting the effect to your vocals on this one, what program were you using on the vocals?

Phill, I didn't get any report and can`t see anything about it in the moderator's section either.  Was it an email?  And agree, I can`t see anything here that needs reporting on.

Thanks - depending where I was in my recording history (6 years ago), I either used the inbuilt effects of iMovie, or it might have been later when I switched over to using LogicX for the audio, then importing that into iMovie for the video editing.

Cheers

Ok thanks for that, I haven't used either of those, but always good to learn about programs like that.

lol good on the cat big_smile Now that is a song I haven't heard in a very long time.  I have to say the guitar playing on this was great neophytte.  Is that a different guitar?

Thanks - yes, that's my "bedroom" Maton ... it's an EM325, which is a mid-range acoustic - I do use it occasionally for gigs, but it's mostly working out ideas and quick demos. Being a larger sized guitar, it tends to 'boom' out a bit more than the small bodied EBG808 (my usual guitar).

I haven't heard of this song before neo, first time I am hearing it.   With that said, it suited your vocals well and you played it well too.

Thanks - I thought it was one of his big hits, but it seems it only appears on the one (under rated) album of the same name: https://www.discogs.com/master/332270-A … -Americans
