Hey!
Do you like Americana? Do you like being a music critic? I'm thinking of making a CD to demo a handful of the songs I've written, but only if I can produce a CD that actually sounds good. And we're all our own most unreliable critics, right?
I'm posting here because (a) the opinions of friends and family are less useful than the opinions of strangers and (b) my '76 D-35 is on some of the tracks.
Since I'm better at writing than at singing or playing, coming up with something presentable is a challenge. The list of tunes I'm considering is whittled down to sixteen from over a hundred, but that's still too many.
So here's a link to a page with the songs: Sixteen songs. (I use the pen name Leon Fullerton.)
Scroll down past the extensive blather. The tunes are at the bottom of the page.
No need to listen to an entire song if you're not enjoying it. Just move on to the next.
Tell me:
- Which, if any, are demo-worthy?
- Which are dead weight?
You can tell me to use all of 'em. Or dump all of 'em and start fresh. All comments are welcome. We'll never meet, right?
Thanks!
