That 1920's-esq cover of "Hey Jude" made my day. (True, it's been a long day and just about anything is amusing at this point...but still.)
ReplyDeleteGlad you liked it Justice!
DeleteThanks for the shout out, Matt; keep it up and I'll have to do the internal chromatic ascent to "FamouserPatrick!" (God help us all if we get to "Famousest...) I actually used this technique in Morph1 at FAWM - "Bring Me Somewhere Else." I saw the layout of the lyric, and it just seemed perfect for the chromatic 5th ascent. Gotta love playng with a new toy.
ReplyDeleteI remember the first time I heard "Raining in My Heart," by Mr. Holly - just blasted me right out of my socks! I went out and bought every Buddy Holly record I could lay my hands on - what a great talent!
Love the podcasts - thanks for putting in the hours to crank them out.
Thank Patrick - glad you found it helpful!
ReplyDeleteMatt - thank you for this website and podcast! I came across the site after your video review of the book Revolver on Amazon. I'm so glad I did. I've been surfing the site all evening and love everything your doing. This podcast was fantastic and I appreciate all the work that went into it. I learned so much. Thank you! Looking forward to further exploring your website and episode four of the podcast. All the best!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Matt! You encouragement is really appreciated!
Deleteoh boy, thanks for the shout out, Matt. to think i only hear it now.
ReplyDeletelove how much fun you're having with the podcast, and of course all that research and research - yes, those two things you do so well :)
kashmir for james bond, but also stairway to heaven for the chromatic descent, although they fiddled with the supporting chords...
as I say, keep them coming, keep making us happy!
Thanks Lee!
