 | Recordings that never happened! As
mentioned elsewhere, any recordings that were done at the time are long
gone, or just rubbish - so we waited until the 21st Century to record some
of them again (Well, the equipment is better now for a kick off - we didn't
have Super Glue in those days) |
| In most cases - it goes like
this....... |
Jan = main
6 (sometimes 7!) String Guitars, Keyboards (yeah!), melodic bits
Me
= Bass Guitar, other 6 String Guitars, sings a bit and other associated racket
Roland
Boss = Drums (he's a robot, and does what he's told and keeps good time)
| Song for a Thought -
a
favourite, probably the tune we played the most that survived all 3
formats of the band.. (7Mb MP3 file) |
Don't Believe A Word
- we never actually played this until recently, but it's
been a bit of an anthem for me with some of the other bands I've played
with - so I forced Jan to do it! He did his bits right first go, this was
Take 1 in his case - I was impressed! (3Mb MP3 file) |
| Cold Turkey -
one of Jan's favourites - so much so that he got the 7-Stringer out for this!. Specially recorded for Flett Band loud music enthusiasts
(.... just me and Jan then?). Roland works hard on this one! A depressing
manic song about the after effects of drugs in the late 1960's - also
describes how I feel after 5 minutes in the same room as.... oops - better
not! That's the 21st Century for you! (5.75Mb MP3 file) |
I Don't Need You - one
that just appeared one day, inspired by all those who have been dumped and
think they've survived - we've all been there and done that! (5Mb MP3
file) |
| Mixed Bag - our anthem - working on it
- it's getting better, honest! |
Unco Up Showband Blues - working
on it - got a structure together, just need to add guitars |
Either click on the Underlined Song Title
Link to launch, or you can Right Click on the same place and SAVE your own copy
and torture your ears to your own heart's content - AND there's no charge! -
which is something you don't see much of nowadays. I think I made a quid at this
music business once - but it was so long ago that I have forgotten if it really
happened! There might be more where this came from! (Probably best played with Windows
Media Player of some sort - where you can fiddle with it to make it sound better
- or worse!) All done using one of these,
one of these,
and a couple of these
- and sometimes we even played the same things at the same time! |
