What recordings do you have of yourself solo or with a band that you are really proud of how it came out?


I have three:

Unfortunately, this band no longer exists...but it was fun while it lasted.


BTW, I'm the guitar player.
Horry Kow!

    My old band recorded an 16 song demo of Rolling Stones tunes. The studio did a pretty good job on the mixing. The best ones that came out IMO were:

    Respectable
    Paint It Black
    Under My Thumb
    There's Pearl Jam, The Rolling Stones, Chuck Berry, Robert Johnson......and then everybody else.

    "Depth" which you can hear on my myspace page http://www.myspace.com/russmc

    I was joining this band called F#@K Sprinkles - and they said for me to download a couple of songs they had and to write lyrics for them. So I did, and then they started having band issues, even before I auditioned for them. Long story short, they broke up, but I had a buddy who's a producer and he said could record my vocals for the music to use as a promo. I asked the band if they were cool with it, and they were.

    I wish I had access to everything I've recorded (there were so many great moments for me, not that I thought I
    played all that well, but hey whatever). I've recorded with a ton of people - Joe Walsh (he was FUN), John Mayer,
    Scott Henderson (Scott kicked my ass), Pearl Jam, Ike Turner, Train, POD, Finch, & bunch more (to many to list).
    Cheers . . .

    This is probably a broken record to most people around here. But so far in my life this EP is my proudest moment.

    http://www.myspace.com/hannahspocket

    Two songs are up and a 20 to 30 second clips of each song in a album preview.

    Recorded and mixed on analog tape. Took a few years just because it's just a hobby to us, and we all have full time jobs. Was a good time. But also extremely frustrating.

    But we are all grabbing our hammers again and going to start beating out about 15 more tracks for a full length.

    actually mustering up the courage to play solo shows on my own a few years ago which, given my general level of self-confidence throughout my life, was pretty remarkable for me.

    recorded moment, probably this song. this is the most ambitious i ever got.

    this is probably the best song i ever made though.

    Here are a few solo recordings of me in my basement fooling around with my guitar, bass, synth, drum machine and multi-track recorder:

    http://www.spinners-web-design.com/The%20Inner%20Limits.mp3
    http://www.spinners-web-design.com/Leave%20With%20No%20Delay.mp3

    http://www.dreamt.org/spinfrog/For%20Optimum%20Peakness%20Make%20Sure%20To%20Use%20Well.mp3

    They're not really songs insomuch as they are me cramming ideas out of my head into neat little packages.

    and of course, the one you'll probably enjoy the most (and I've posted it here a ton of times):

    http://www.spinners-web-design.com/In-My-Own-Tree.mp3

    (I'd like to re-record it and smooth it out a bit, but I still love it)




    Some other stuff w/ my buddy at open mics:

    up on http://www.myspace.com/amadeuskdiamond theres this thing called K Through To O which is probably one of my favourite things instrumental i've recorded. I don't have any of my things with vocals up there that i'm all that proud of
    Won't you come see me, Queen Jane....

    Leaving the pillow alone tonight
    And I can see for miles
    Speak father with all your might
    Drive in one last nail
    I’d walk right into your hands
    From the end of the earth
    I’d make one final stand
    If you could see what I’m worth

    i wouldn't say it's my 'best', but nothing else i ever do will ever come close to how good this weekend was. didn't know it at the time, but it was the last weekend i got to spend with my brother and we recorded 'comfortably numb', 'under the bridge' and 'immortality'. i could record something now and it could be 'perfect', but it'll never be as good to me as that.

    I'm never really happy with my recordings. Well, I am for about five minutes, then I listen back and think, "Awwww, I could do it a lot better." I've an album in the can like that.
