Members Freeman Keller Posted April 10, 2011 Members Share Posted April 10, 2011 This is a test of a bunch of things. I got a new recorder this week (thanks LiveMusic) and a new slide (thanks NealP). So I turned the recorder on and started noodling around with the slide. Then I had to figure out how to host it, fooled around first with the VOM hosting site, then Soundclick. Those of you who have been doing this for years will laugh at me, but lets give this a try.

Members FussenKuh Posted April 10, 2011 Members Share Posted April 10, 2011 Wow... looks like there's already a bunch of posts just waiting for my ears! Can't wait to start listening Title: Watch Over You Originally By: Alter Bridge Featuring: Guest Vocals By Paul Maua A few months ago, I posted an instrumental rendition of this tune stating that I was one day hoping to have a 'final' version complete with some vocals. Well, flash forward to yesterday and, with the help from a friend from halfway across the world, I now happily present the final rendition of the tune.

Members garthman Posted April 10, 2011 Members Share Posted April 10, 2011 Hello, people. "Who Am I" by Country Joe and the Fish 1967 was a good year for several reasons, one of which was that I was 18. There was also some great music about and it was the year that the album "I Feel Like I'm Fixing To Die" was released (Give me an F . . .etc). This song appeared on that album. Old Joe McDonald was obviously going through some tough times when he penned it but I suppose it touched something in me because it was the only song of theirs I ever learned. Played on my 12 string, chorus fingerpicked, verses strummed with the side of my thumb. Recorded with Audacity via my computer mic in one take. Mic approx 2ft in front of me - 12 string also played through a 15 watt acosutic amp approx 6 ft behind me. http://www.box.net/shared/07xyqqsvnv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Oldskool Texas Posted April 10, 2011 Members Share Posted April 10, 2011 So I turned the recorder on and started noodling around with the slide. T What you call noodling I would call bad-ass slide work, especially on Poor Boy. Nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Starrshine Posted April 10, 2011 Members Share Posted April 10, 2011 Title: MagnoliaCredit: JJ Cale http://www.reverbnation.com/play_now/song_8145126 I was going to record this on Friday night, but some idiots almost put themselves over the cliff below my house and I had to deal with their stupidity till 2AM! So, I got this recorded this morning, definitely a VOMITBob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sixgunner455 Posted April 10, 2011 Members Share Posted April 10, 2011 This is one of those songs everybody says to never play at an open mic. Since this is virtual, and I don't have to watch anybody cringe, here it is in all its VOM1T glory. A number of mistakes, and missing some pieces, but I can actually play it all the way through, not just the intro ... Drum roll ... Stairway to Heaven. One take. Got a few warts. Recording equipment didn't cooperate exactly as I hoped, yada yada. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members kujozilla Posted April 11, 2011 Members Share Posted April 11, 2011 "Christmas in Prison" John Prine Sorry guys I'm a day late and a dollar short. I did "Christmas in Prison" by John Prine. It was Christmas in prisonAnd the food was real goodWe had turkey and pistolsCarved out of woodAnd I dream of her alwaysEven when I don't dreamHer name's on my tongueAnd her blood's in my stream. [Chorus:]Wait awhile eternityOld mother nature's got nothing on meCome to meRun to meCome to me, nowWe're rollingMy sweetheartWe're flowingBy God! She reminds me of a chess gameWith someone I admireOr a picnic in the rainAfter a prairie fireHer heart is as bigAs this whole goddamn jailAnd she's sweeter than saccharineAt a drug store sale. [Chorus] The search light in the big yardSwings round with the gunAnd spotlights the snowflakesLike the dust in the sunIt's Christmas in prisonThere'll be music tonightI'll probably get homesickI love you. Goodnight. [Chorus] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Queequeg Posted April 11, 2011 Members Share Posted April 11, 2011 I'm not online on the weekends so this was really nice to wake up to this morning in my otherwise early morning quiet office with my first cup of coffee. Congratulations to all on your submissions this month and thanks for the music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tbry Posted April 11, 2011 Members Share Posted April 11, 2011 Here's one I've been working on........ The Grinding Wheel Did this version with wo mics, one take........figured it to be a demo for something I could work up in the studio but I think I might just leave it as it is. Played it on the old Kalamazoo again. I'm looking forward to a good hour or so of listening later in the day when everybody gets posted up. lenny, that was really cool...very nice!!

Members DeepEnd Posted April 11, 2011 Members Share Posted April 11, 2011 Last week was a bear. Very busy. Nice to come back to the VOM1T. extollo: Cool. Haunting but good listening. tbryson: Well done. Shows that something good can sometimes come out of tragedy. kwakatak: Very well done. I could listen to you all day. Fendouglas: Nice job. Depresing but so is life sometimes . . . masterbuilt: Nice job but it sounded a bit like it was in too high a key. Stackabones: Great job as usual. Makes me kinda sad to think I'll never be able to play lead. Terry Allan Hall: Nice job. Great that you're keeping those old songs going. Etienne Rambert: Really cool. Love that vintage vibe. skatalite: Not bad but IMHO the distorted gutiar part didn't add anything and actually detracted from my enjoyment of the song. Michael Martin: Well done. Moody and contemplative. LeonardScraper: Great job and nice original. That old Kalamazoo sounds great too. g6120: Great job. BlackHatHunter: Nice job. Digging the ukulele. I gotta get mom's uke fixed up and start playing it. Oldskool Texas: Great job. Well written and performed. Loved the vocals. totamus: Nice job. Great picking. TSMusic: Nice job. Freeman Keller: Nice job. Great playing. Well above my usual level of "noodling." FussenKuh: Very nice. Paul's vocals were very good. Ain't the Internet wonderful? garthman: Nice job. Thanks for the "blast from the past." I haven't heard Country Joe and the Fish in years. sixgunner455: Not gonna complain. I can't even play it. kujozilla: Nice job.

Members masterbuilt Posted April 11, 2011 Members Share Posted April 11, 2011 Last week was a bear. Very busy. Nice to come back to the VOM1T. masterbuilt: Nice job but it sounded a bit like it was in too high a key. I had a cold all week and my vocals weren't up to my usual. Nonetheless, I gave it a shot after some encouragement from other forumites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members FussenKuh Posted April 14, 2011 Members Share Posted April 14, 2011 Just starting to scratch the surface of the VOM... Thanks to everyone who checked out my submission this month! And, yes DeepEnd, the Internet is, indeed, a wonderful thing. Thanks for the feedback extollo - YouTube is very wise... lullaby was one of the first thoughts that entered my head when I watched the video tbryson - Very nice work, sir! The xylophone was a nice touch kwakatak - I could never quite get into DMB, but, it's hard not to be familiar with this tune. I'd say you did it justice and I'd gladly exchange your 'questionable' vocal pitch for mine any day That's all for now... Thanks for the great music folks!
