BEATLE FEST..Ticket to Ride . as Rearranged and preformed by NEIL SWANSON CP 201

[SwanSong]

I was inspired since it s raining cats and dogs in chicago next 2 days to cover this song
on my korg. the CARPENTERS did a version of this very slow with a harpsichord. and karen
singing howeve.r  i wanted the same stye , so i thought i would try latin. and felt it
came out rather cool . especially with the organ re hammond sound on my KORG. AND
since this is my 1000 post. since joining songcrafters why not do a beatle song
hope u like it thanks NEIL SWANSON ..................................................................!1

Nice!  This is giving me a very relaxed peaceful feeling, and very nice tone on that melody voice.  What model Korg do you have?  And are the drums midi files programmed on the synth?

"She's got a ticket to rideeeeeeeeeee..."
Singin along here Neil, love your work on the keys.
Maybe one day you could put your keys on one of my projects?

[SwanSong]

Thanks ken and all for the kind words. and yes  i was trying to give this
new rendition a totally different feel than the original . in order to
make a cover your own i have learned. one must do it in his or hers own
style then u have been successful with your own stamp on it. also in
answer to the korg they r equpped with drum backing patterns and midi
but i also have a sequencer on board that i can creat  my own sounds.
beleive it or no t im still dealing with a floppy disc on that lo . but eiher
way a good sound re korg. also ken u  r welcom n would b honored to
work with u  as long as i have the chords to your song or project. andd
a mp 3 of what u r trying to do .god bless NEIL SWANSON

I really admire your skill, knowledge, and ability to arrange and orchestrate on the keyboards and all the sounds that korg puts at your fingertips.  You are a very talented fellow.

Great job on this very original arrangement.

Peace,
Ron

Thanks rolow for the kind words. and u hit  it right on the nose
the korg does the job providing all the wonderful sounds at my
fingertips. even with my arthritic hands. but good therapy. so
if there s any minor mistake.s it s beacuse of arthritic conditions
but we try . this took 12 takes  as it was lo. and for those who
asked what model the KORG IS IT S A PRO PA 50 DONT KNOW
if they still make the same model . but for 800 dollars is what
i paid. i am very happy with it . four years ago . again thanks
for all and any future comments. will continue to follow up NEIL

Terrific version! So relaxed! The Hammond sound is great! Excellent!

[SwanSong]

Thanks so much , again , i try with ea cover , tomake it sound different
and since i can t really sing that well with ea new song i try and incorporate
a new feeling to the song, and a new sound for the melody line.
i am glad it s enjoyed , and that instrumentals are still liked. for those
who can not sing lo..the only type of singing i could do , is backing vocals.
with my deep voice. will keep trying , but in the mean time my korg does
the singing . take care NEIL
