A most enjoyable listen...very impressive this month people. Top draw.

[quote name='lurksalot' timestamp='1491509486' post='3273673'] I deliberately don't listen to any entries until mine is done , or at least fleshed out and ready for tweaking. I am sure that if anyone had gone the same route as I was thinking, I would get a mental block and my inspiration would freeze [/quote] I recall heeding that advice from your good self a while back, and I am now indeed stumped !! In my defence, how often does anyone think along the same lines as Dad !! Nige

[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1491414217' post='3272891'] OK, here it is ("At last..!" I hear you muttering. My apologies for the delay; I've had some distractions this week...)... [url="https://soundcloud.com/dad3353/i-heard-it-on-the-radio-so-it-must-be-true"]I Heard It On The Radio (So It Must Be True...) ...[/url] Enjoy. [/quote] Excellent sir, It has blown my idea out of the water..( I had Bert with his 'swinging safari' !!) So...

Well done SH73...saw off some good competition there !! Nige

Is that little riff Mr McGeoch's tribute to Mike Leander and Mr Gadd ?!!!

Wow..I wasn't expecting that ! Last night I was preparing my " well done Mr Leonard, I'm chuffed to be 2nd (again),blah blah.." speech !! Thanks to all who voted Nige

That's a shame !!

Voted. A wide range of stuff there people !!

I'm in..... https://soundcloud.com/nigel-jewell/tout-de-meme

Top stuff already in ! Nearly there meself,just some vocals,mixing etc etc..could be messy !!!

Voted... Never had the time this month to enter, but listening to those entries t'is probably just as well !! Fine entries all...

[quote name='lurksalot' timestamp='1484862610' post='3219299'] Excellent news Dad, improvement is the main thing, It might be worth giving mine a miss then this month , it is a touch rushed It does what I wanted it to though so good luck ....

[quote name='Grangur' timestamp='1484566943' post='3216318'] Sometime receiving negative feedback is received differently, depending on who it's coming from. If I were Herbie Flowers, or Ed Friedland I'm sure anyone would accept anything I say, but as Grangur... hmmm I dunno. [/quote] Exactly this... I used my first DAW in april 2016 purely to enter this forum competition. I knew very little then (mmm!) but I remember Douglas(Dad) used to review all the entries. His views and criticism were a great help to me...I'm not sure that had I just been "slated" ,I would have bothered again. Just my musings......hope he's well. Nige

[quote name='Rikki1984' timestamp='1483899711' post='3210976'] I couldn't agree more. Mine vary from 'poor' to 'very poor' but it's been a great learning experience and I've really enjoyed it and I would never have got into it without this thread. [/quote] Et moi aussi !

Well done Lurks, excellent month. Very best wishes to Douglas, get well soon . Nige

Voted ! A rather eclectic mix for the 2016 Christmas album....crackin' stuff ! Nige

I'm in...nearly missed it !! Started off as a cover of Rikki Boyes' "Rainy Day" but time and imagination went against me....probably just as well https://soundcloud.com/nigel-jewell/a-poor-caroline have a good one all, Nige

[quote name='Leonard Smalls' timestamp='1481186128' post='3190275'] It's not often that I do a cover, but I've made a start on one. Just have to work out how to make my bass sound like a 42 year old synth! [/quote] Ah, a funk cover of Ray Stevens at last ?!!!!! .....(or maybe Germanic?)

[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1480581807' post='3185513'] [Robert Robinson] Ah, but did you specify [i]which [/i]Christmas, eh..? Now [i]there's[/i] a thought..! ([i]Taps side of nose, knowingly[/i]...) [/Robert Robinson] [/quote] I had his voice in my head as I read this, clear as a bell........mmm ! Well done to both winners...onwards ! Nige

Voted..another superb collection,well done all !!

[quote name='christofloffer' timestamp='1479730499' post='3178754'] hopefully next month i will be in a better place and more inclined to put the effort in. [/quote] Not always easy, but tis good to look ahead...hopefully next month !! It was the 'Two Ronnies' with the brass band I kept thinking of when making up this months ditty....unfortunately,I'm not clever enough to create that sound.....!! Also had the help of Mrs J to break up my vocal tone !! Anyway, I'm in... https://soundcloud.com/nigel-jewell/ill-be-right-behind-you-a-mile-or-two

[quote name='lurksalot' timestamp='1479160444' post='3174470'] I got a new six string so I had to have a go on it . [/quote] Cant' just leave it there . What is it ?!!
