songs from a room
New, less brash background green; same great taste.
Yesterday's mystery ballad was, of course, "The Cremation of Sam McGee" by Robert Service. Thanks to those who wrote in.
My four-track is starting to give out, I think. Track bouncing is dicey, so I had to do all kinds of auditory surgery I don't even want to talk about. The acoustic guitar gets kind of lost in the mix and the string part (sampled from the violin solo beginning the third movement of Smetana's "My Life" quartet) somehow accidentally created this accompanying xylophone-type sound, but I kind of like it so it stayed. My neighbors doubtless hate me for the noises at the end.
