Chris finally made it to Holland to do some recording. He came prepared with two guitars and an amplifier.
He is so in to his music, and talks about special tuning, I nod as if I know what he’s talking about.
He is a fine musician, but, as I’ve said before, not alway prepared.
The song he wanted to record wasn’t even finished, it didn’t have a title, or any lyrics, so how that a song?
Anyway I could see that he wanted to try his latest guitar, which was a nylon stringed electric, quite unusual, with an interesting sound.
We did several takes before me. “Billy I Know” stuck my nose in and made some suggestions.
This, it turns out, were good ideas, and added more to the basic rhythm.
We worked on it for about four hours, stopping for a cup of tea.
The dogs were really good, Kelli had to go out to do some errands, or maybe she appreciated good music, so the dogs were left to their own devices.
There was another tea before Chris loaded up his kit and headed home, while we got ready to take our girls out for a walk.
Another Lifetime to go
