Razors edge

Some more blues for you.
I was working with this bass track and in the end had two different tunes I like so I´m posting both.

Have a listen.

Simply wonderful Mark. Great guitar work on both of them - but I prefer personally Razors Edge.

I notice some "clicky" sounds at the start, which I assume shouldn't be there! I wonder if this is a problem within Logic? It's happened to me when I've used Logic to remix a tune made in GB - the aiff sounds fine, but when you convert it to mp3, clicky noises appear. Doesn't happen if you convert the aiff to AAC though. Any thoughts?

Minor problem however and top tunes anyway, both. Two for a download and the pod - thanks! 8)

Thanks for the good words guys, glad you liked.

I don't know about those clicks your hear DJ. I downloaded both songs
and don't hear any extra clicks. Maybe its just the cockroaches that live
in my guitar. They always seem to be getting in the way. :roll:

Try downloading again. Do you hear it on both tunes. If you still hear
them tell me how far into the song you hear them. Then I can check it out.

Is anyone else hearing strange clicks on these tunes?

I've noticed those clicking sounds in every song I've played today! I think it must have something to do with the streaming server or something, because it only shows up on the QT pages and the hi-fi streams. Downloads have been fine.

Hi there Mark - just tried again. I don't hear them on the download - but I do hear them on the stream - so maybe it's got something to do with that. My son is "warmongering" online on the other computer upstairs, so it all slows down a bit when he's with his gang of elves slaying cave trolls. May be that! I will try a download of my own tune that clicks, and see if the download does as well. If it doesn't - then the problem is probably with my connection.

Egads! I've listened to some terrific music tonight - not least your own efforts. I'm supposed to be working! :(

Hi Maggie - I think you're right. My "clicky" tune doesn't click at all on the download - just the stream. Problem solved here anyway. Is there any way to stop that?

See DJ, I knew it was something small that was causing those clicks :wink:

:shock: NO....NO.... please not another genre. I haven't figured out the ones we have already. I just found a new one "Shoegazer". God I must be getting old, what would Jimi say. I do like the World genre, that makes sense.

It's true I do need a new guitar. Next time the Gods smile on me I'm getting a strat or a tele.
But this old Teisco does have its moments, I've had it for over 20 years.

Tasty and relaxing, you guys are too much. I was trying to make it relaxing.


Thanks again.
