Ok then, This is my first attempt at writing and recording, I have had help. The song is in its very rough stage. This was done just to see if it would work, which it does and dose not. I am aware it needs a coming out of the chorus bit, however what I had written was not in time with the drums, and I am only using loops from EZ Drummer.

It is gonna be called Walk With Me.

There are the out takes at the end.

Just because I am doing Law All right to this song are property of James Duckworth and Graham Jones.

Thanks Olly for the Help.

Guitars used.

Gibson SG

Gibson 335

Fender Jazzmaster

Fender Bass 6

It sounds really good James.

What are you intentions with it now then? Do you have lyrics for it?

Can you go through your recording process? What software and plugins (if any) are you using? It has a really nice full sound to it!

Yes there are lyrics on the way. Its a story about meeting My missus Kay. When we first met I was working as a postman and would ring her up about 10 past nine and ask her if she wanted to come and walk with me on the post round, hence the title Walk with me.

It has been recorded on Mixcraft 5, using the peavey vypyr 75 and a whole host of settings, it was connected via usb. The only Plug in is easy drummer the rest is all hand crafted.

I have no other intention at this time although my mate is thinking of making an album as I have come up with about Seven songs.

We are talking of ITunes however that is a long way off.
