The opening organ and guitars sound cool Paul. Trevor's bluesy vocal and lyrics are top notch. The strings are top notch. The lead guitar work is very tone-full and tasty. I got same eye opening revelation hearing the strings here as I did when I first heard strings in the song Brother Louie by Stories in 1973. Great work gentlemen!

A real good rocker, Ron! I have to say you are a real maniac on the guitar. Excellent growl in the vocals and the guitars. Another rockin' winner!

Original Songs / Act Like a Maniac

Last post by Ron D Bowes - Today at 06:57:57 AM

I had a blast doing this one

ACT LIKE A MANIAC

I'm tired of doing time, got the police knockin' on my door
I live a life of crime, but I don't think I can take anymore

I'm on the locomotive and I'm heading down the track
I'm leaving this one-horse town and I won't be back
Gonna break all the rules and act like a maniac

I'm mad with frustration and I think I'm gonna lose control
You can lay down your law, but by now you know I won't be told

I'm on the locomotive and I'm heading down the track
I'm leaving this one-horse town and I won't be back
Gonna break all the rules and act like a maniac

I'm on the locomotive and I'm heading down the track
I'm leaving this one-horse town and I won't be back
Gonna break all the rules, gonna act like a maniac

Gonna act
Gonna act like a maniac

Gonna act
Gonna act like a maniac

Original Songs / Please Don't Go - a Tworegs Ch...

Last post by chapperz66 - Today at 06:43:14 AM

This is a revamp of the first collaboration we did.  In my ignorance I didn't realise that it was a cover of a song.  I just redid the backing based on Mr Smith's version - so it wasn't much like the original or the more famous slightly later version..  But it worked  rather well and we decided to revisit it with Trevor's new lyrics. I added some more strings and mixed it again - I have got a bit better at it over recent years.  I think this is a justified original song now.

Apologies if I have asked previously, but what are you using for guitar tones? They always sound great.

Cool tune.

Mostly I use my custom Telecaster which has a Humbucker at the neck and a single coil at the bridge (and use combinations thereof) put through my Marshall MG10. usually one through clean and another through overdrive. Various pedals and/or plug ins are used if I so desire ;-)

What a treat! Such a full sound with only a few instruments and beautiful melodies and harmonies from Tim. I love the little bits of piano that come in, subtle detail but it adds so much. Sublime!
