Inappropriate

Ian McAllister · #1 July 27th, 2008

Well, this was a Sunday afternoon!! I was feeling a bit lackadaisical so I thought I'd experiment. Here we have the fruits of my labours. I whipped out the slide, and the minimoog VSTi and bigged it up! Everything including the kitchen sink!
Take it with a pinch of salt please.

sounds like the kitchen sink was turned completely on and your musical genius was in full gear I like the variation of the country picking, like the backyard well was being primed and suddenly a countryboy's guitar's picking was splashing out of the well with such flavorable country pick'n , time for a replay

Nice work Ian, cool production, there's a lot going on in this and it flows along nicely, great stuff

Thanks a lot guys. As always I appreciate your comments. I'm actually gaining more confidence every day, I'm really a shy guy! Loved your song sailor! Gene, 'genius' is a mighty big word!!!

Hello Ian...
Another great tune,congratulations

!That was a pleasure to listen to...I haven't heard all of your songs since I am only about three months on the forum,but allow me to say that this is the best recording of yours so far.The recording and all the effects mixed together harmonically,gave the song a professional touch...You are right to feel more and more confident.Keep up the good work and the songs coming...
All the best,
Theo

Thanks Theo, it did work out well for a throwaway Sunday afternoon song didn't it? Thanks for listening.
Ian
By the way, apart from the drum machine, everything was recorded 'live' and the best part was the 5 minutes I spent on the vocals, a change from the 8 hours I did yesterday!!

Wow....that did have the whole kitchen sink.

I loved the melody and of course the sliding!

Which one?

Wow, that had it all and then some Ian , called me old fashioned but I really loved the solo starting around 1:40 top stuff.

Ian McAllister · #11 July 28th, 2008

Thanks Matt, I liked the clean guitar amongst all the confusion too, it seemed to fit. Glad you enjoyed it.

Good job Ian, that was something...

Ian McAllister · #13 July 28th, 2008

Thanks, yes it was indeed something! I'm not sure what though,

but I like it.
When I joined GFB&B last year, I posted this;
the first thing I recorded on a computer
and 'Inappropriate' seems to be part 2 of that.
I really thought that my recordings would be all noodling and weedly weedly, but as I've progressed with recording, I've found that I'm concentrating on songs which has been really rewarding.
Thanks again, (to everyone) for all the support.
Ian

Sounds like you had a good time on this one- yee-haw! Hard not to smile while listening

Ian McAllister · #15 August 5th, 2008

A smile was definitely what I was aiming for Chris. Glad it worked... la la la la la la da la la la la la la.
