Midnight Rose

[The Gobi Desert Canoe Club]

High all, back with another. Just before I went on holiday I had a gas attack and succumbed to the temptation of a synthesizer. Bit silly really as I can't play keyboards and have to poke and hope a bit, having said that, they are a lot of fun to play with. I bought a Roland JD-Xi which I suspect will give me more than enough sounds to play with when I've learnt to program it even badly.
Anyway second one using the new toy, Hope you enjoy. Willie

You stand in corners where you hope you won't be seen
Playing with your rosary or are they worry beads
You're not speaking, you don't look at anyone
You're not smiling, you're not having any fun.

I can't see your eyes although  they may be brown
You're always looking up you're never looking down
I'm near enough to smell your perfume, Midnight Rose
I long to touch you but I'm sure that you'd say no.

Inst,

Somewhere a bell is ringing, watch her cross the floor
She gathers up her handbag walks up to the door
I'd like to walk her home and maybe hold her close
But all I have for memories is the smell of Midnight Rose.

Nice song willie,the thing is,when people try to find their way around an instrument they are not comfortable with ,that's when the experimentation creates cool stuff like this.
Hope to hear more.

[Geir]

This is very cool Willie!!

Great use of your new synth!

Brilliant, Willie.  You certainly appear to have got the hang of the new Roland.  This still sounds like you, of course, but with a whole new pallete of sounds.

Brilliant.

Sounds like you're having fun with the new toy. Nothing like a new bit of gear to spark the creativity.

[Greeny]

Really interesting things going on throughout this. If this is what happens when you're still 'trying it out', there's going to be some amazing possibilities.

I especially liked those bits at 1:40 and 3:30. And your lead guitar work, of course.

Great stuff.
