Topic: Seems I have both a #1 and #2 Songs on the Chart at Somojo Radio

However fleeting this may be I am excited!

On Somojo Independent & Unsigned Artist Radio (a European based radio)
I submitted two songs

SONGS (From That Place In Time)
Has just hit #1 on the Akoustica chart and #3 on The Official Somojo chart for all songs! + #1 on current top 10 favourites (all songs)

and

TENT CITY - Acoustic Fusion song (lyrics by Howard C. Holbert music by Gil)
Currently #2 on the Akoustica chart

Please go have a listen to both because every listen counts!
(songs take about 7 seconds to start playing for some reason).

or you could visit my profile there and play the songs in the mp3 player there:
(avoids having to scroll the chart because position always changes)

Thanks for your support my friends!
If ever I could return the favor let me know.

WOW, Gil!!! cool

This is quite some achievement that hits on a thread I've been thinking about starting for a while in this section, I'd better post it before it's too late! smile

Excellent musical and audio standards as always and with songs at #1 AND #2 in a chart you must be chuffed to bits!!! Good on yer!!! cool

Will you still have time to post when you're on your 58 city world tour? smile

PS: Listened B4 writing and both again while writing - DAMN, you good!!! cool

PPS: Would you have time to post a thread on your recording rig and your methods used? (Or if I'm being stupid, could you point me to that info if it already exists?) cool

Re: Seems I have both a #1 and #2 Songs on the Chart at Somojo Radio

Thank You all for your kind words of support!

SONGS (From That Place In Time) still at #1
It slipped once to #2 but quickly went back to #1 spot on both the Akoustica chart and the Official Somojo chart (all songs, all catgories). This is going on 3 days at the #1 spot which I never expected. I can see all kinds of other songs jockeying for position below trying to Get to that #1 spot.

It's been great while it's lasting and thank you all so much for your support and helping to make it happen.  This is a European based radio station and my Songs have always done much better in the UK and European independent music scene.

Here's an easy direct link so you can listen again and help it maintain chart position. Thanks again for all your help:

Here is also a direct link to Tent City which will help that song stay at #2 longer:

PS: I would be glad to post my recording setup. Very simple and cheap actually.

I have finally found happiness in my life.  Guitars, singing, beer and camping.  And they all intertwine wonderfully.
