Description:
A song about a busker and his quest for original music without the demands of fame. He just plays cause he loves it so much.

This is a good song. really liked your guitar dynamics. But...it just sounds
incomplete without drums even though your timing was on. Plus, (I'm told
this all the time) the vocal could come up a bit, not much. All this aside
good job!

Thanks vic. I was meant to put it in the description but I posted this last night
and was half asleep and forgot to say but this is a work in progress. The
drum thing is perceptive of you cause I'm posting it to see if someone wants
to do drums. I'm nearly worn of this song and would love someone to breath
new life into it through drums. Plus - I'm pretty poor at the drumming side of
things. Thanks for you comment -much appreciated!

really nice track &mdash 07/24/06 - 06:06:57 AM
nice track Gav. Great vocals. I agree drums on this track would make it complete. Really well done and I look forward to hearing this track with drums on it.

Carl my same-birthday-buddy! Cheers for d post. I posted in the forum this
morning looking for someone to do drums and 'The Composer' will be giving it a
shot! I'll post it when done. My first collab so I'm quite excited. Cheers Carl!!

this is great! I think it's cool with no drums. There seems to be lots ambient sound, a buzzing (right channel guitar?) You could try adding some gate o that track.
great guitar hooks. great singing. what the hells's a busker?
great job! bravo!

Cheers Alley-oop! Thanks for the gate suggestion. I was wondering how to get
rid of that buzzing - will give it a go. I think drums will lift this alot though. I do
very little rock stuff so I want to get this one rocking. A busker is someone who
busks on the street for money. Someone who plays music with something like a
hat on the ground for money collection. There is probably another name for a
busker you are more familiar with. Cheers for the post!!!

Nice track! &mdash 07/24/06 - 12:03:59 PM
Good melody, singing and guitar work! There is a bit of ambient noise I
guess but not too distracting in the grand scheme of things...this really
reminds me of some rockier stuff off the last Calexico album 'Garden
Ruin'...
Cool
