    Yes, I was at a concert in '92 or '93. A strange event, where the Kinks also performed, along with the Stereo MCs and others - kind of a crude mix, but cool. I have to admit, though, that I didn't get too much of the concert because I was there with my (then) brand new flame, who I've been with for over thirty years now. I had my priorities then, if you understand...
    Cheers,

    Well there ya go, a great memory for sure!! Great decision Micky!

    Must confess. I think I like Father Christmas as one of my favs by them, I like the song first off but I like the production on that more. Every little nuance in that song is great, the singing, the story, the guitars, the breaks....

    Cheers!

    I'm now thinking I might make a latin/funk version (maybe lounge jazz :D ) which I think would also be fun... but I've already got 3 songs in scaffolding that I should finish first, so let's not ;)
    Again, good job man!

    It's a simple blues progression that could be taken in a few directions. Latin/funk might be fun!

    Better to be backed up than to have a writer's cramp, he.

    Good luck and thanks!

    Hey Wayne, one of my favorite Kinks numbers, although I can't really think of a bad one. Well implemented. I think it's great that your vocals get that super reverb at certain points. Great guitar work, I had a chance to see Kinks live once....Dave Davies is great, but you do it just as well!

    Keep rockin',

    Big Kinks fan here, they were more of a raw 60's rock band and such great songwriting. Their music was for the common working man, it was distorted guitars and wonderful stories to be enjoyed. I liked both Ray and Dave's input and songwriting in their music.

    No kidding, you saw them? That's awesome.

    Take care Micky!

    Nice man, you gave it your own twist! Good stuff and good song to choose and love the theremin!

    Yeah, it's close but not quite the same as the original. Easy song to play, more about tones on the guitar and bass and the sound of the drums, try to make them punchy and more period sounding.

    Thanks!

    As soon as I heard the intro I thought you know this song! And so it was. Nice cover version that left room for your own style of music. I'm too young to have actively witnessed this time. But you brought her close to me. Good old British Rock! Good work. Greetings Manuela

    I was a child when these songs were already hits but I am a big fan of music history and all the bands that got us to where we are today. The Kinks are a pivotal part of the British invasion, great songwriting and producing. Always been a fan.

    Thanks Manuela!

    Hey Wayne, I love this song and you definitely did it justice! The arrangement is tight and snappy, like the Kinks original. Well played with your trademark, stripped-down, in-your-face production style. Also, I'm so happy you're continuing to experiment with theremin. It suited this song really well. Great stuff my man!

    Thanks Cam! I love the Kinks! Just get the Kinks Complete Collection disc and you are totally covered, 25 classic hits.

    The theremin is used like a keyboard here, plenty of uses for it, ha!

    Thanks, worked hard on the drum sound, didn't have a kit that sounds like british invasion so I eq'ed things to get it more thin and snappy.

    Thanks Michael!

    This is such a classic! & one I have never really been a huge fan of but always liked the guitar in it. I think your version here sounded real good! tho & you have absolutely done it justice indeed. Your vocals suit the song, so well done! on this. WTG!

    I'm sorry you aren't a fan of this song. I love the Kinks, always have. Surprised it took me this long to do one of their songs.

    Thanks for stopping by and commenting!

Description : This is my newest creation, at a stage very near to completion. No third-party mastering or mixing, as with all my tracks. Just have to fix a few tiny things. I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO MIX EVERYTHING IN THE SAME SESSION. This song has all human-played instruments - no quantization or MIDI! My brother does all the vocals except for the interlude part, which I do. My other brother plays the rhythm guitar (a Gibson Les Paul Custom - only one of 12 in the world!!) and I play the accompanying guitar (a Johnny Mar Jag and PRS). He has a lot of guitars :P A good friend of ours, Ronnie, plays the bass and another friend, Freddie, plays the drums. The drum track was done in one take (had to use an electric drum set due to time constraints - but acoustic kits are so much better). Overall, pretty satisfied with the result. Let me know your thoughts.

Description : I've Just looked at my old music archives and thought to bring some of them out for you guys to listen to.
Guys, a couple of friends and I, we've got Lowdown with this track.
One of us started with a chord and we followed each other.
I must say there are no sounds like the sounds of real drums.
I hope you enjoy it if you do then please leave me a comment.
