Western Showdown - Randall822

Hi ya Kissbunny...already wrote you..via email...yes you can use my song. Good luck with it. Randall.

Hi ya Berrygurrl,

Am glad you liked the song. Yes you can use it in your B/F's project. Just give me credit and also a copy of the final video. I would like to see it very much.

Hi there,
Glad you also enjoyed this western type tune. I am learning some 'Chicken Pickin' style, so maybe you'll enjoy that one too.
Thanks again,
Randy

Hello there Wayne,

Thanks for listening to my western tune I did awhile back. I appreciate your kind comments and I am glad you enjoyed it.
I just listened to the song you mentioned called 'Just Tonight' and thought you did a very nice job on it. It is quite a bit different than mine, as mine builds up 3 times, and of course it is a little different style.

However, this does have that spanish flavor to it. One of my other tunes is kind of a real spanish style that was put together.

I have many nylon guitar loops on a CD that I bought. Even though I play fairly well myself, sometimes the loops sound cleaner and so I often use them, and put them together.
Okay, thanks again for the listen and review.
Randy

Hi there Pat,
Thanks for the comment and welcome to Looperman. I'd review a song of yours, but you haven't posted any, so let me know when you do and I'll be glad to review it.

I do a variety of music including Country, Rock, Metal. and Blues. Pretty much whatever I feel like doing.

Later...and thanks again,
Randy

Hi Jfw,

Thanks for the nice review. I love this guitar sound myself as I am a country player by heart, but you wouldn't know it from the rock tunes I've put up mostly.
I did this tune partly for another fellow as he was making a tune as a joke song for his friend, and thus he used the beginning of the song as a lead in.
I am glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for the listen and review.
Randy

Hi there Mik,
I appreciate you coming by and checking out the western tune. I probably could do something with horns and such. Just didn't think about it at the time.

Thanks for the nice comments, much appreciated.
Randy

Hi Daniel,

Your right on the ball...Just received a message from you while I am writing this one. ha!

I usually state in a songs description if I use loops or whatever to help me out. Example: I don't play fiddle so I use loops for that in my country songs, or wherever.

I have lost track of the many thousands of loops I have boughten. Last year I bought 10 CD's full of loops from an English company. I haven't gone thru even half of them yet. Lot of orchestra stuff I don't need.
I also bought a guys entire library of CD's he made himself, another 10 CD set.
These have some Jazz loops and many other styles.

But, I still enjoy doing most of my own playing. I am not getting any younger. :-)))

I am glad you liked this country tune. I used my 'Framus' Les-Paul-lookalike guitar for this one as it does indeed have Humbuckers. It is a 1971 model made originally in Germany and worth a bit now.

That Apache song you mentioned, that was one of the first tunes I learned to play while I was stationed in France, after learning chords. The other was 'Needles and Pins' by The Searchers.

Didn't have an amp over there, so I rigged up a transistor radio to play the guitar thru the radio's speaker. It worked enough so I could hear it well. I copied the original artist Jorgman Ingman? style, then The Ventures version too. Don't belive I heard The Shadows version.

Anyways, I love old westerns as much as anyone else, and so I decided to try something and this is what came out. I added in the gunshots at the end as I thought it would be a good way to end it.

Thanks for your comment and have a nice day. Sorry for the long reply, I get carried away!!!
Randy

Hi ya Dave,

Happy to see you check out my western tune. I don't do many of these types, but I enjoyed making this one. Not really complicated, but effective I think. I had to close it out with 'gunshots' as I felt there had to be an ending. Who dies? I don't know, but could be both guys. Whichever way you want it to come out in your own mind. haha

Thanks for the nice review, I'll check out some more of your tunes as well.
Randy

Hi Dvibe,
Thanks alot for reviewing my western tune.
It was a fun one to put together. I figured the gunshots at the end would put a nice finishing touch to it.
I used my Keyboard to make them.
I will check out another one of your tunes here.
Thanks again.
Randy

Hi ya Slap,

Hey....thanks for stopping by and taking a listen to the western shootout. :-)

It was a fairly easy song to make overall.
I am glad you enjoyed it. I'll 'shoot' over to your profile now and see what's new there as it's been a while that I've heard one of your great tunes!

Thanks again,
Randy

Hello there MM,

Thanks for the nice comment on my western tune. It wasn't a hard one to make as it had rather slow leads, etc.
I am glad you enjoyed it. I will take a listen to your songs and give you a review back.
Randy

Hello there Fila,

Nice to hear from you. Thanks a lot for reviewing my 3 tunes. I will reply in each of them.

I am glad you enjoyed this western type tune I did. It was a fun one to do. Not too complicated as far as the guitar parts.

Yeah, them darn church bells really set the mood don't they. You hear one western movie with them in it....and they are in everyone after that. What an 'icon' eh.

Thanks again for your nice words. I will get to review 3 of your tunes over the the next couple days.

Randy

Hi there Wookie,

Thanks for reviewing this tune and the Rock-Jap one. I appreciate your comments. I understand that the fuzz sound in the song I reviewed of yours was your just getting use to things.

Certainly no harm in experimenting at all and then uploading a song to get another perspective from members here.
That's how we all get others opinions and learn from them to improve our music.

Glad you liked this tune as well. It was fun to make. Not a complicated song at all if you listen to it. Rhythmn guitar, some simple lead, drums, a synth bell sound, and synth generated gunshots. :-)

Randy

Hi there Butcher,

I agree as to where this belongs...in a movie, but it is pretty simular to ones already out there years ago.
The ##### shots...I felt I had to add them in to end the song.

Glad you liked it and I appreciate your comments.
Randy

Hi there Helix,

Man you guys are fast! I no more than get it uploaded and already 5-6 reviews! I am glad you liked the tune. I wasn't sure how it would go over as it's so different from the regular music on here.

Anyways, thanks for you nice comments. Much appreciated.
Randy
