The amp isnt to great either...so i can't record any nice distortion sounds Ok, i know its far from perfect and it's alot faster than the original. But still i had a go and thats what counts :P Fast Guitars (right click save-target-as) 993kb Comments/Critisicm? -------------- - Johnny - Back to top

The composition is Mike's, and you already mentioned the guitar a some points not being perfect, so there's nothing else to comment for me. Maybe a little off-topic remark. Reading the chat history of that chat session with Mike a few days ago, I saw Mike advising you to make your own tubular bells. Don't take that to literally! Don't spend the rest of your life making MO covers. Yeah, I know, It's maybe a bit early to say such thing at your first Oldfield cover, but if you are planning to cover the whole tb, well, don't do it just because Mike said it. You're to good to be doing that, IMO. Just to be sure... -------------- Read everything I write at own risk.

That has gave me more confidence in my abilities..:D Album should be finished within a few months -------------- - Johnny - Back to top

You can tell they are a bit on the down side, but it's ok seeing as the rest of it is very well produced. Look forward to that album! -------------- BrandonBlume.com "The beauty in life is in the embracing of the variety of things. If all the world was blue there would be no colour blue." Back to top
