Rob
Rob, man, we love you! Speedy recovery with no bumps on the road!
A new one up from myself and KED. Hope you enjoy and Happy Easter to all my friends at IMS !!!!
I may be Self Dorking, but unless I've got the date wrong, I think a little birdie told me that today is Alexis' birthday.
I know he's not around here a lot these days, but for those who have had the benefit of his musical knowledge, collabed with him or just listened to his wonderful "fresh jazz" music it's a day to celebrate.
Many happy returns, my dear friend. I've chosen my image where I'm raising a drink.....it seems to suit both my reputation and the occasion.
Cheers
Brian
Catch the Show tonight from 8PM GMT (thats usually 4PM EST but i think its 5PM EST as our clocks havent gone forward yet)
So its sunday... and its easter... does that mean i am going to be giving out chocolate eggs? No... I'll probably be making a mockery of the day that seems to have no relevence to any of its religious significance.. and once i have done that I will probably make a mokery of the religions too.. you know how it goes. :lol:
I'm actually looking for any clips of comedians talking about Easter, so if you have any feel free to send them in to me.
Seeing as the Live AutoRequest Feature is so popular I think we might rename the Sunday mix n Mash the Sunday Request show and were going to stick with that for a while.. hey if people like the fact that 90% of the music all night is chosen by them then who am I to stop them?

Okay, I'm removing the songs that were on It's All About The Music because they've had their day in the sun, and I'm feeling like I need to see something different on here.
I will be posting new songs as I complete them, but as I work those out I will be posting some of my older tunes that are not "typical" for me as I judge myself. These are the songs that I think are out of my comfort zone.
For now, you can listen to my newest song "Heal My Friend." It is the tune I did for Rob Grant. It may be worked on at a later time, but for right now I think I'm happy with it. 
Now, go forth and RECORD! If not, you can spend your time listening.
Any guitar players trying to learn piano?
Once you get into, The DAW, you just can not help but want to learn the piano, right?
So, I wrote a piece for piano, and like a loyal guitar player I am now trying to learn this on guitar (classical guitar).
G'day, I know this has nothing to do with music (so sue me :D)
Any ways 38 today, makes me kinda feel old.. hmm only 2 more years and I hit the big 40 ..
yikes 8) Scary stuff..
George Shepherd sent me the musical card he wrote for Rob ...and told me I should 'sign' it too... so I crooned around in it - just to make it a more 'hallmark' moment - and
the latest song post is the result.
Thanks George ! ( for "Picking" out the card _G_ )
Just finished a song. This one is called "Chill", and is some relaxing (hopefully) music for his recovery. The last collab I did was with Rob, on a song called "Break through". I was so honoured that he asked me, and the piece he wrote really brought out of a lot of emotion in me. Thanks Rob for involving me with your music - this one is for you.
Wishing you a smooth a peaceful recovery.
Take care
Rob
