Re: New Songs Up

Thanks for the comments.

I'd say I'm getting better at the recording business, but still making basic errors. I'm used to playing and singing together, but these last two were recorded as two different tracks, guitar and then vocal. The most obvious error is in the arrangement.

I regularly leave out the two or three counts between chorus and verse when I am laying down the guitar track, particularly at the start. The best answer to this that I know is to take my time to learn the arrangement, but there are times when I'm ready to scream with frustration at it.

I absolutely loved " I cant look at you , tonite" I love the way you sing. Wish I had an accent.

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

Re: New Songs Up

Hi Alan
Recording is like anything we do in life comes down to practice and recognising your mistakes and try to put them right.
It sounds like you going in the right direction..
Well done

Re: New Songs Up

Selso,

Just listenened to your songs - you have an accent, man !!

I see from google maps you live close to Albuguerque, Durango and Santa Fe - have you any idea how cool that sounds for someone living in Belfast !

Go easy, step lightly, stay free !

Re: New Songs Up

Santa Fe's about 2 hours south of here. Albuquerque, about 3. Belfast, no clue. Id rather see Belfast!
