Blimey been neglecting replies but loads going on at the moment, with family arriving soon for their 4 week “vacance”.
@mathsjunky Thanks for that Paul. We are our own worse critics but having run through the set twice and error free, waiting my turn, it was annoying to fluff up. If I don’t analyse and see what went wrong, I won’t improve, so no doubt I’ll keep on beating myself up, rightly or wrongly.
@roger_holland Hey one these days you’ll get the time right but there was some last minute confusion on this one. Now if we are talking Radar Love I’ll have to spin that up for a comparison to old Bob, been a while since I gave it a good listen. Thanks for the comments.
@Boris1565 Thanks Boris, understand where you’re coming from and appreciate that.
@JokuMuu Sorry to disturb your slumber And its a long song to stay awake to and I always think of Dylan’s version as one of his typical dirges so it needed some ooomph. But imho technically perfect with attitude would have been better. Check Dean Jackson out, he’s a good listen.
@Lisa_S Thanks for taking the time to listen Lisa and yeah they are two good songs to get into groove wise and need a bit of wellie as we Brits say !
@Silvia80 Thanks Silvia, have to agree finding a couple of hours to back track on the OMs is never easy in our busy lives but at least you missed my little imperfections. At the end of the days between these and the OMs its still me a computer screen and a camera. You’d think it would all come out the same. One day maybe.
I get you on that Alexei but it takes a while for me to learn new stuff to a level I’m happy to perform with. With Unit 1 its been three things to learn, if you include the melody and two songs. All will need attention and polish for some time and next months, there will be another 3 to learn and add to the mix. So bringing in songs for an OM is going to increase the work load and I have the family over for a month as well. As in life somethings have to give. So sticking to plan A for now but never say never.
@Cagn Bonjour Mon Amis ! Ca va ? Yeah what the heck has happened here, sans ete for sure. And yeah I am doing fine and living the life of bliss in good old Manche !
Was pretty happy with these two, it was the Open Mic performance that went off script Two good song for checking your rhythm out for sure and thanks for the comments on the vocals, they’ve come a long way in the last couple of years. Thanks also for the suggestions and something to bare in mind. Certainly doable one the first song but the rhythm does change about a bit as I tend to go with the flow and doubt I have ever done it the same twice. Masters is more of a challenge as I wanted to stick to the original Dylan brief but add some attitude with the vocals. Bob’s original is one long drawn out dirge and its the same all the way through, so I thought if it worked for him … anyway thoughts have been filed for future reference. Always appreciate you feedback. Take care, biz !
@rorystrat Appreciate that Peter but the BLIM stuff will be a while before any of it is oven ready for “live” performance or any kind for that matter. If I can apply it to a bit of Mr G who knows something could be in the pipeline but as we are just coming out of the 30s it could be some time. On the going last thing, its normally my preferred slot and easy to engineer when I have been organising in the past. So I am no stranger to being tail end Charlie but for me the wheels fell off a little this time but glad everyone else seemed to enjoy it and at the end of the day that is all that matters. Cheers !
