We're all little fish in a big pond... Doesn't mean we can't harness our skills in the meantime.

I'm glad you were able to take my observations in the best possible light. Keep at it... It only gets easier with time.

Hi Scott, thank you so much for your enthusiastic review of Playground, I'm glad it has had such a positive effect on you! I agree with your comments about the mainstream media too, they have always had dubious taste even at the best of times lol.

Yes I wish that were not so. Everything does come around though. You can't keep a good musician down; nor a Beatles fan! Scott.

Yes Scott, very true lol, there is an old saying 'talent will out' and I agree with that, it is something the mainstream media will never be able to stop thankfully.

I am currently enjoying listening to some of your tunes on here Scott, I am very impressed with what you have up here! You have definitely put a lot of work into your music and it shows in all aspects. You have a great team of people behind you!

Looking forward to hearing your other tunes now. Keep up the good work!

Hi Richard, thanks for the review of "The Game"/piano version. If you have a chance check out the vocal with Isaak James. It really made a difference. All the best, Felice Kaye-Cooper

Hi Jim,

Many thanks for your review of Playground, very good advice given. Glad you also like Old Gang.

You have 2 great tracks up here. I love the harmonies at the end of Be Yourself, and Over To You Bob is instantly catchy, I can't help tapping my foot along to the rhythm, nicely done!

Thank you Chaz, that's very kind of you to say about my songs - and I am indeed a BIG Beach Boys fan amongst others lol.

I have recently started using drum loops/sequencers etc on new songs I am currently working on, and have actually began doing a piano demo of Old Gang. I can't play piano, but I know enough about music theory to build up the chords/melody lines and make it sound authentic, so far the results sound promising. The demos on here are a couple of years old now. Thanks again for your advice, it is greatly appreciated!

Peace

Richard

hi again..your two songs have a LOT of potential! obviously you are a beach boys fan! i am too. the tunes would benefit majorly if you could add drums/bass and some effects..even if you just used sampled sounds..just my suggestion...nice songs! keep it up..

thanks my friend for your kind and helpful comments of "strikin' it poor" ..this song gets the best reviews from UK members! the comparison to Supertramp flatters me hugely! most people in the age 30-40 range aren't familiar with them...i actually got to meet Roger Hodgson in 1991..he came into a small club i was playing at in No. California...it was cool! he's nice too.
anyways, thanks again and best wishes ....

Richard: Thanks for your thoughtful and useful comments in reviewing my song "Windows and Mirrors." Gave me a few things to think about. Not a synthesizer at the beginning though; it's guitar. By the way... nice Rickenbacker bass.

...in which case great guitar playing Robert lol. I really did think it was a synthesizer (to my embarrassment). Glad you like the bass too.

Nothing to be embarrassed about Richard, most everyone thinks it's synth. It's pretty heavily processed.

Hi Shomari,

Many thanks for your review of Old Gang, you made some good points, especially about the vocals, which do indeed need to be a little more in the background. I am currently working on a remake of this tune and I will pay more attention to the final mix.

Also well done on your tunes, a great way to start the day - nice vibe to them all!

Richard :-)
