Hi guys. This week I made something for my mom. It's her favorite hymn, by a guy named Charlie Tillman, and it's done acapella. You may not like my voice, but ma sure does.

Hello everyone. I made up a new song this week. I had all the lyrics in a word document in the laptop and when I went to go sing them they were all gone, nothing but a blank page. And of course I didn't remember them, It was about Ozzy, but I guess that was not meant to be. Then I found these here words on another document that I didn't remember writing. So I just used those. Here's Precipice (soundcloud.com)

Back in my early band days I did many things I don't clearly remember. Ozzy-esk it is and well done Sir

Well, those lyrics work.

In your blank document, press CTRL + Z to undo the last operation, which was likely an accidental select-all and delete. (That assumes you haven't since closed it. If you've closed it, the buffer has almost certainly been deleted.)

Lately, I've been waking up in the middle of the night, smoking and not quite burning the place down, but using my laptop. I ain't gotta clue what the fuck it is I thought I was doing, but I wake up and all my shit's closed, moved, or some bizarre setting has been enabled and takes like an hour to fix the fucking thing.

I need to break my fucking fingers before I go to bed.

I tried that. I think i accidentally saved it after cutting all of it for some reason.

If you use something like OpenOffice, it may save multiple versions so that you can go back through them.

I really kinda want to go driving. I have had a couple of beers, but that has been two beers over three hours. So, I'm not even a little intoxicated.

Just in case Poal goes down, you should probably have a text file where you keep a running backup of this thread for the archives. When someone posts a link to a track (if they do), hit the source button and copy/paste it as a new text in your text file as a temp backup.

The server could go down at any time.

One of these days, I'll have to record you my own version of that. It'd remind folks of Sungha Jung, but with more maturity. I pretty much cover both guitar parts at the same time, with a bit of golpe thrown in and some rather percussive playing near the end.

Not to toot my own horn, but it's divine. It'll make a grown (drunk) man cry in his beer. Y'all would seriously enjoy it. I'll put it on my mental list.

Get on it!

I wanna hear!!

I really should record it for y'all. I am even well-practiced with it, as I play it fairly often for the missus. It's one of her favorites.

As much as I'd like to go drive in the snow, I'm going to wait until early morning - when there's more snow and less traffic!

(I'm still not here.)

This is the other version, staring Biff and J -- no me in it, I don't think... I'd have to listen to it to double check, but I'm pretty sure I'm not in it and I'm on vacation!

Mighty fine pickin as always so very well done.

[–] • 0 pt

Thanks. It's an older track, so it was just me. Hell, my wife didn't even live with me when that was recorded.

As memory serves, it was a pain in the ass to put together. I couldn't really use the editor all that well, so I just recorded everything until it was 'perfect'. So, we're talking a dozen takes or more - but only after I figured out how to fix the latency issue. The latency added by the computer was minimal - but you could hear it. I'd listen to the drum track with headphones while trying to play and there was just enough of a delay to make it so that I noticed.

Man... It seems like a lifetime ago.

I am on vacation still. It's still January, plus it's going to snow and I want to go scare the locals.

So, how about a good song. This is from early, early on. It's so old that I played all the instruments.

https://share.fngt.gq/music/rock/classic/Black%20Sabbath%20-%20Iron%20Man.mp3

To add to the confusion - there's another version of this song that was done by the usual suspects. It's much newer. This one's from like early 2018.

Oh, wait, I had it backwards...

This is the one with just me.

I enjoy listening to your work, all of the elements are always there.

[–] • 1 pt

Man. That's so accurate---even in tone---it sounds like you just stripped Ozzy out of the original.

[–] • 1 pt

Thanks! It differs in a couple of areas, a bit more bass than I'd like. It throws the tone off a bit, but yeah it's pretty close.

That was back when it was just me. Man, it took me like a month.
