@executioner-brand saidRight. I made it to the moon. Gee, I didn't know that. Have to take my memory pills then.
and you made it to the moon how?
Turlough O'Carolan was a blind Irish harper who was a genius improviser of tunes and lived for a while with many families composting tunes for members of these families.
One day an Italian musician came by and played a concerto. O'Carolan heard it and said, I can make up a better concerto than that right now.
And did, and the house was floored.
So this is it, my rather flawed version of O'Carolan's Concerto:
@sonhouse saidFlawed or not, that is beautiful. 😊

I only played it over a few times before I hit record. My little recorder is a real
jewel. A Tascam WR44, the size of a couple of cell phones stacked on top of one another but a 4 track recorder with 2 built in really nice condenser mics and two more XLR jacks for pro mics and 48 volt phantom power needed for condenser mics and it records at CD level and more advance DVD level, 96,000 samples per second and 24 bit. CD is 16 bits and 44,100 Sps. I wish I had that machine when I had my band Southwind in Venice Beach back in the day.
Thanks for the nice reply! I have 85 tracks on Soundcloud now and more to come. I might put one of my favorites, a song called West Virginia is my home, written and sung by an old timey American singer songwriter Hazel Dickens RIP.
My wife Susan, Esther Haynes, Shelly Yamini and me on mandolin, Esther on lead guitar and lead voice, we recorded that song in our flat when we lived in Jerusalem. I think it is the best version I have heard, but I might be a bit prejudiced😉
Since Russ added the soundcloud link, I started a thread 'upload your own compositions' here in general. I put up one of my own, Caleb's walk, for my grandson, who is into baseball, Caleb's walk, get it😉
@executioner-brand saidNice.
I liked this song because of my part Niuean blood.

@torunn saidThanks, when I play poker I generally play heavier music as the aggressive nature tends to be more rewarding in poker. It takes away the boredom of sometimes hours on end in a game.
Nice.
