Members DeepEnd Posted March 22, 2020 Members Share Posted March 22, 2020 Nothing new but here's one from December, 2017. I was a huge fan of Roy Clark on "Hee Haw" and one running bit was a series of skits featuring Roy as the proprietor of the "Empty Arms Hotel." Here's an example: Here then is my original, "The Empty Arms Hotel," dedicated to Roy: https://m.soundcloud.com/david-phelps-681437607/the-empty-arms-hotel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Misha Posted March 29, 2020 Members Share Posted March 29, 2020 Hi! I hope you are all well in this terrible time. I ordered a little ukulele to bring at work with me and received it very quickly. The first thing I did was learn a few chords and try to record. It’s not good enough to share, though, yet...

These days the VOM needs all the help it can get and we can all use more music in our lives. I tried to change my mind last evening but could not play any instrument. I lost my 15 yo cat to cancer yesterday afternoon. At least, listening to music, reading or writing about music and instruments helped me change my mind a bit. We get so atrached to these little pawls, it's tough when they leave! Thank's for your songs, people of the VOM1T. It's good for my mood! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Misha Posted March 30, 2020 Members Share Posted March 30, 2020 Added voice to ukulele first day, first chords learned... (beware!!) Recording quality is not good... (Integrated mic of Ipod or Ipad). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members garthman Posted March 30, 2020 Author Members Share Posted March 30, 2020 Hello everyone. When I started the VOM I had good intentions to record something new but was seduced by the lovely (very unseasonable!) sunny weather here in the UK all last week so did lots of work in the garden. So here is an old one: As Tears Go By by Jagger and Richards https://app.box.com/s/19hya0cf80ig90cg5ew24ue56h071ym7 Great to see you Deep, Cats and Misha - some great contributions. Misha - you have a most beautiful voice. You must participate in every VOM - that is an order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DeepEnd Posted March 31, 2020 Members Share Posted March 31, 2020 Misha - That was lovely. Well played and you have a very nice voice.

I could not listen to your clip at the office but I found your song and your voice very soothing! It’s worth gold during these crazy and beyond belief days!

Like some of my other originals it literally took years to come together. I had the basic verse for years and then came up with the chorus but I couldn't figure how both fit in the same song. It had to sit and ferment for more years until it all made some semblance of sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Idunno Posted April 4, 2020 Members Share Posted April 4, 2020 Late to the party. This is a short ditty played on a Yamaha classical guitar that was modified to accept 0.010 gauge set steel strings. Howard (garthman) suggested I experiment with the concept to shortcut what might be a long search for a 12 fret guitar that meets my preferences. So, without much hesitation, I proceeded to sharpen the tools and effect what is now a very decent 12-fret guitar. Thanks again for the push, Howard. I'm late this VOM1T because I had to heal the tip of my left index finger after a bout with a sharp wood chisel, which also abbreviated the playing of this piece. Thanks. Edit: The ringtone you hear in the beginning is an incoming text on my new cell phone. I'm on the grid! https://app.box.com/s/u88is3yxitsyhmquixebp4dnp992qh3f Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DeepEnd Posted April 4, 2020 Members Share Posted April 4, 2020 Idunno - Well done as usual. It was worth the wait, for sure. Sorry to hear about your latest injury. BTW, I thought of you the other day. I was browsing on CraigsList and saw a Larrivée SD40 12 fret dread for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot better late than never, Joe. Excellent playing and the guitars sounds very good. Glad to have been of help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
