PopTodd Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Serious writer's block.I do have to tweak the lyrics a little. And the arrangement will probably need some fine tuning. But this was a video that I made of me playing this very simple little Buck Owens-type tune on the night that I wrote it -- less than an hour after I jotted down the last note on a scrap of paper that I found laying around on my night stand.Maybe I'll record it?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ON9uKHgOIMHope that you like it.Let me know.

Scott Gyrrr Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Love it. Like you say a little work on the arrangement/lyrics but keep it nice and raw and then drop and give me five more Bet it feels good to pop out a new one after that long. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Moss Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Nice work Todd, I almost grabbed a guitar and filled up the solo section for you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PopTodd Posted June 22, 2011 Author Share Posted June 22, 2011 So I debuted this song last night at an open mic, despite the fact that I have not yet had the time to really finish the thing. I just wanted to see how people responded to it.It got a pretty good response. Very encouraging. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PopTodd Posted July 5, 2011 Author Share Posted July 5, 2011 I just demoed this thing on Friday. Sadly, I don't have the file to post yet, but I am kinda excited about the guitar solo that I came up with for the thing. After several passes at it in one style, I had the idea to drop my pick, and go after it more in the style of Mark Knopfler (crossed with James Burton).I realize that raises expectations to a level that there is no way in hell that I can ever even come close to approaching, but I am still pretty stoked that it is nothing like I have ever played before. At least not on tape. And I think that, after I practice the part some more, it is going to sound pretty hot.Now I just gotta get that demo from my friend Rich, who recorded it, so that I can listen to it some more.
