That sounds alot of guitar. Not much wrong with vocal, what till you hear one mine.
Nice playing alun.
I cant play and sing I start strumming the medoldy, not what I am ment to be strumming.
And so what if you can't help singing thats what playing music is all about.

Guitar sounds lovely! And the singing is fine - nothing wrong with that at all!
Nice one Alun - look forward to hearing some more of this guitar along with vocals!

Hi James, I've re-recorded it as a wav file, (no vocals)
But I don't have a clue how to send it, or do I just put it up here again,
I can send it as an attachment if you pm me your e.mail if that helps.

It will be rejected by the server if it is a wav file - also I would assume it will be too big to send via email as generally wav files are pretty large in size - you could look to uploading it to somewhere like here:
http://www.sendspace.com
And that will then provide a link for James to download it!
Hope that helps!

I'm not sure but is this not the link to delete the file you uploaded rather than the one to download it - I haven't clicked it in case!

Well spotted Olly, I hadn't noticed that,
Thanks for your help I now know what to do in future should the need arise,

Hi James, all done (with help from Olly) click on the link below and hopefully that should do it, good luck, looking forward to hearing it, does this mean we are about to become a Cyber Band?

Liking the band name,
I reckon the tempo should be about the same, I don't use any timing aids sad to say I've never got on with metronomes and such,
