Title: The lost song
Post by: thetworegs on March 24, 2024, 05:48:07 AM
Here's the track from the MET in San Francisco with John https://alonetone.com/reefwalker  I think you can tell already I had a great time hopefully he'll be joining up soon. I'm singing and playing John produced co-wrote and whistled which has made the song a lot more quirky and interesting . We had a limited time together as he was of on a break but we had a great time getting to know each other a little too good for making music. He was showing me the area and we were frequenting the bars drinking tequila cocktails and by the time we got to recording my mind was quite hollow I'd got the makings of a song as we were preparing for the recording but by the time it came to pressing the red button the song had gone hence the title for this one. Hope you enjoy

Brilliant mate!  Love the quirky percussion.  And a happy song - marvellous.

I can hear the fun you both were having while recording The Lost Song, made in Calif. Seems you had a great adventure and covered a lot of ground in a short time. The whistling was a surprise but fit well. Good fun Trevor!

This one has me half smiling and half laughing.  Combination of brilliance and folly.

This sounds a lost McCartney song – one of his oddball ones. Which is ironic, because its the most English sounding song to come out of your trip that I've heard, and it's got your American collaborator on it. (Is John American, or does he just live there?)

I used to use a wind-up alarm clock, and it was about the same time I bought my first 4-track cassette recorder. Some of my first recordings would have tick-tick-tick-tick... in the background, because I was so used to hearing it that I didn't think to suppress the sound.

Johns from Kansas originally I think moved to California 6 or 7 years ago for work
