God, I love this!

I have a streaming cold and bad throat, so will be having a play with this when I get a half-decent vocal range back...

I added lyrics to blues in G. What do you think?

[madrab]

cool daniel,
very laid back. I will see if I can "copy and paste" and create a little bit of more room for the song. intro, verse, verse, solo, solo, verse...

I know "blues" can mean blues, but I have realized that the blues I like is not so much about that as about sex. (I once played with a really good guitarist who gave me a good advice: "Playing blues is like fucking, don't go to fast and do everything at once...")
Anyone with some steaming lyrics?

I have some pretty good lyrics (well, I think they're ok!) written and ready to go. I'm hoping my voice might be up to adding them this weekend. Watch this space.

Anyone with some steaming lyrics?

which is scottish (steaming that is) for extremely drunk. so true to scottish stereotype ive done a lyric in that key, but i am sure our colleagues throughout the www will have lots of empathy with it especially those of you who are married. gimme five minutes whilst i master it. (the song that is not the missus)

okay here it iis now called " nuthin but a smile" made a hash of posting it earlier, hope this one works.

These are great. Love the ending of course. How did you fiddle the BR to get that long distance voice sound? Only reverb? 
I cant wait to hear LesPaulGoldTop's lyrics... But don't turn this into a contest !

I was just thinking again about the fucking metaphor. I know you can put plenty of testosterone in a song, but still, in my opinion, music is for the ears, and sex is not. this is how those new lirics came to me.



No offense mad rab, I am very respectful for your music. I'm only having fun.

I had a play with this one over the weekend, and had to start singing from the start to fit three verses in. It's just a rough demo, although panning the vocals left a little seemed to work ok as a balance for the main guitar part.

Funny how Jim and I have come up with totally different interpretations, though maybe predictable that both have references to drinking! I like the story-telling feel of ORH's though.

Mine is called 'Got no Key' - it's a song about being thrown out, but the key in the lock is also an old blues metaphor for you know what 

I've gone fairly straight with my version. I almost turned it into a cover of the Doors 'The Cars Hiss by my Window' at one point because it fits so exactly.

Anyway.. here it is, vocal limitations and all!
