Subject: mudcat radio song competition entrant From: alison Date: 08 Sep 99 - 04:21 AM Hi, We were going to a gig on Saturday when Alan of Oz announced that he was going to write a song to the tune of the Gypsy Laddie........... well it started my brain turning over and I pinched his idea, (at least I own up when I pinch things *grin*). So here is the first ever song that I have ever written in my life, (please be gentle with me....)
Feel free to add more verses........... (thanks again alan for the idea and scanning)
Mudcat Radio (Tune Raggle Taggle Gypsy)
All around the world via internet slainte alison

Not often I'm speechless, especially speechless in awe
but when it happens, recently,it's usually due to the 'Cat. once again... |

Subject: RE: mudcat radio song competition entrant From: Cara Date: 08 Sep 99 - 04:37 PM Wow. Bravo 'Catters! |

Subject: RE: mudcat radio song competition entrant From: Alan of Australia Date: 08 Sep 99 - 07:29 PM G'day, Gee, I stay up late recording, mixing, converting to mp3, email to Max & crawl off to bed. Get up, late for work, tune in for a Mudcat fix & there it is already. I'm sure Alison is still asleep & won't even know yet that I've recorded the song. Apart from the vocals this was a recording we made a while ago with different words. That's Alison on whistle & piano filling in behind the guitar.
Cheers, |

Subject: RE: mudcat radio song competition entrant From: tooligan Date: 08 Sep 99 - 07:51 PM Its a number one in the Mudcat Radio Charts!! Well done to all! |

Subject: RE: mudcat radio song competition entrant From: Alan of Australia Date: 08 Sep 99 - 08:05 PM G'day again, Driving to work I realized I had to point out that it's only about 18 hours since Alison started writing this song, less than 12 hours since I started recording. What sort of record's that?? Dennis, good to cross paths with you again, Howya goin'?
Cheers, |

Subject: RE: mudcat radio song competition entrant From: alison Date: 08 Sep 99 - 08:13 PM Hi alan, Thanks I'm sure... but I can't hear it yet.... net congestion and buffering... I actually sang it via Mediaring to Max but your's should be much better quality...... slaine alison |
|
Subject: RE: mudcat radio song competition entrant From: Alan of Australia Date: 08 Sep 99 - 08:20 PM Morning Alison, Real Audio quality's not bad if you don't have congestion - isn't there something you can take for that? My comment about your sleeping habits seems to have been a bit hasty this morning!
Cheers, |

Subject: RE: mudcat radio song competition entrant From: Barbara Date: 09 Sep 99 - 01:32 AM uhm, Leej, I think that's Alan of Oz, which may be why Bert sounds that good. Read the above posts to check. Blessings, Barbara |

Subject: RE: mudcat radio song competition entrant From: Lonesome EJ Date: 09 Sep 99 - 02:01 AM Hey, Alan, you should take that as high compliment since I think Bert has a great voice. Good job, both you and Alison! |
