Give Me A Break I'm An Artist (at Least I Think I Am)
Just thought I'd post this, bit of a tongue in cheek song I wrote a while back, straight take, me and my guitar having fun

You can write, paint.....play, record and sing! Fanatastic Chris. You have come such a long way since you were trying to track down your hiss in the sewer! Is this recorded in your 'studio'? It sounds terrific, and the vocals are really outstanding. Well done.

nice one Chris 
I probably never listen to how other songwriters write their songs, I just write on using my own imagination. windsong

Thanks SlickCat, like the video idea, I'd insist on going on location and I'd have to have my own dressing room and 300 hangers on otherwise it's a non-starter

I smell better as well Carol, Yes this is the second track recorded in my new studio it's pretty basic but much better than before I'll post some pictures later it's quite small but the Acoustics are pretty good, I've still got a bit of hiss but I've just set the place up so I'm hoping I can get it better, thanks for the comment on the vocals, I actually edited this with my Wife, I had a few effects on but she said it sounded better without them so the only one left is a slight pan on the end and the fade out, really pleased you like it this is one of my favourite songs and another one from the Uni. thread

I agree with that sentiment Kidhaiti, thanks for listening glad you liked the song,
Anyone who has a go at guitar is a hero in my book takes a lot of dedication
