Happy listening.

Boys of Summer

Summer – it’s all over the shop.  And thanks to Ricky Ponting and the boys, there’s not much by way of traditional joy (i.e. flogging the poms at Cricket – or more sportingly, seeing a close hard-fought contest played out next to Voice’s water cooler).

So by way of attempting a bit of spirits lifting, I dug these out …..

Doing a Beatles or Harrison tune. Okay just joking, all right.

Should add this mp3, it’s a heartbreaker.

Doing what he does best

Hey. Hung here. A few weeks ago prior to my “sickness”, which lead to”hospital”,  full of “nurses” and you know Hells Hospital is a true fictional account of hospitals and nurses I forgot,  due to the stress of rubbing shoulders with Loreen,  to post about the request for Seasick Steve.

Seasick Steve was born a poor black American and saved up and had the operation, just like Mikey. No I jest. Steve is an American guy you plays the blues on guitar however his niche is that he tunes he guitar differently to standard tunings. Steves story can be found here,

music, Steely Dan

So I will continue to indulge myself with another Steely Dan track. From my younger years I got into this stuff just on the music. I never realised what this song was about but if you are interested go here.

Otherwise Just enjoy the rock/jazz fusion of the best band that ever came out of the US.

Hello patrons de la pork.   During a deep and thorough research session for a piece on the evolution of Inner West pub rock, I chanced on this gem.

Cripes …..    Not the Ol’  55 you were thinking of ~  Check the moves on the left handed rhythm guitarist…….

Thunderbirds are GO !!!

Two more pink drinks, thanks, Merv

home recording, music, utopia

Tutu wondering how did she ever meet Hung

Seeing that we have gone musical lately I thought I would share this tune with you done by my alter ego, Mark. This recording went through a very complex path. First I use a computer program called Band-in-a-Box. You write you backing tracks in this program by adding the chord structure. You pick a style and the software creates the backing, drums, bass and keyboard. This is then recorded onto my Boss 4 track tape deck onto the first track. On the second track some guitar is added by taking a line out of the amp into the 4 track. Vocals are added direct via a microphone, in this case a Shure SM58, straight into the deck. I left the fourth track for a guitar solo but never got around to finishing the project. This was written 15 to 20 years ago and it’s about my life time dream, to win lotto. Enjoy the laugh.

Hung One On – Utopia

For those that play, this song has the same chords as Gloria by Van Morrison but backwards and slower, plus I did make a few little alterations.
