Me playing my favorite cover song intro's...

[Jubilee]

Jim they were all absolutely awesome!! Keep it coming!!

Thanks! I haven't played or recorded any cover tunes in a LONG time until today. I just did it to try to get me motivated to write some new originals... it didn't work. What are some of your favorite songs?

Sure, you ask that, but when we tell you, you tell us we're old, and you've never heard of those songs before.

Hey everyone,

I was just thinking about it this morning, and I don't think any of you have really heard me playing any cover songs. I thought it might be fun just to play a few of my favorite song intros. There aren't any vocals, and they are all short. I just wanted to do them for fun to see what you think. And YES... they're just teases of the songs.

I'm working on original music this morning, so I didn't want to spend much time on them. They would DEFINITELY sound better if I spent more time on them, so you'll have to cut me some slack here.

I hope you like them.

Here's "Mother Father"

https://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php? ... 3d8ff3e76f

"Man Against The World"

https://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php? ... 2fae08da2e

And finally... "Hard To Say I'm Sorry"

https://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php? ... 42e97cc072

Jimbo...I can't wait to hear these. Every time I click on the link I get kicked off MR...
I'm going to try again tomorrow!!! The reviews are GREAT!!!! :wink:

False modesty?

I just started working on it for ya, but I'm too damn tired...must go to sleep! I'll finish it in the morning.

[G.I.Jim]

False modesty?

I'd kill to sound that good...even my speaking voice is crap.

If it was false modesty, I don't think I'd use other vocalists for all of my songs. I don't HATE my voice, if it's singing the right song. I have an awkward vocal range... I can't hit the high notes without going into a terrible sounding falsetto. It has to be just the right mid-range song for me to be able to cover it.

Thanks for the compliment though. I'll post a couple of requests tomorrow. I'm on leave, so I have the time to mess around with some songs. Going to bed now.

Those are really good, I was listening to Mother, Father and was expecting Steve Perry to start singing...."She sits alone, an empty stare".

Who DOESN'T like "Funky Town"? Loved it. Thanks, Jimbo!!

[G.I.Jim]

I wish he WAS sitting here to sing that! I couldn't imagine how cool it would be to work with him. Even working with Neal would be an incredible experience. I don't think they're hiring though!

Yeah, it would be a big deal to work with either one of them, yes, even Neal. I know how people feel about Neal, with that being said, he is an amazing musician, when it comes right down to it. Do you have any finished music you can share Jim? I would love to hear more of your stuff.

Thanks! i have several of my songs on my myspace page at www.myspace.com/jimrykbost


I work with Alex Mark Scott from Italy on them. He does the lead vocals and pretty much all of the guitars. I do everything else, and write most of the music and lyrics. I hope you like it!

Per your request Sir. Hope you like it! This one was actually a little tougher than I thought, because of the lack of having the vocal track as a guide. There are a couple little errors in it, but I got through it okay. Thanks for the challenge!
