Calling all local musicians!470 dagen geleden
 
This afternoon, I heard "Angel Fingers" by Wizzard on the radio, and it brought me to something of a revelation, as I will now describe:
For a while now, I have often dreamed of writing a Spector-esque 'Wall-of-Sound' song, but have shyed away from the idea due to the belief that I didn't have the resources ie. I can't play all those orchestral instruments. So, as I listened to said Wizzard song this eafternoon, I explained my dilemma to my mum, who was present at the time. She reminded me of the obvious factor that I have, for some reason, neglected: I have so many friends/associates who can play various instruments! Encouraged by this, I have begun writing/scoring a piece of music that will become my Spector/Wizzard song.

So, basically, I'm putting a call out to ANYBODY who can play ANYTHING, and I shall try and incorporate all the various instruments into this piece and, if you're willing, I'll give you the sheet music, and you can come and take part in the recording.

Who's in?

Even though I live miles away...and you hardly know me (bar Michael), I'll still let you know that I can sing, play guitar, play bass guitar and Euphonium (brass instrument).

So, I'm up for it if you need any of those instruments? lol

Ok, so we've got a euphonium and a triangle. I have to say the response to this blog has been somewhat underwhelming...:(

Progress Report (For anyone who cares):

I now have 2 songs for this project; both of which are as yet untitled and at a very primitave stage of completion.

If you were ever lucky enough to hear "Put Your Shoulder on My Head", my 'Brian Wilson' ballad from Advanced Higher Music, then the first of these 2 songs should come as no surprise to you. If anything, in many ways, it even demonstrates progression from "...Shoulder", and it sounds much more like (the inspiration for the former's title) "Put Your Head on My Shoulder".

The second song, in short, is basically an amalgamation of all your favourite Christmas songs; a bit of Shakin' Stevens here, some Slade there, and so on.

Both songs will require plenty of musicians, so however slight your enthusiasm and interest may be, if you are interested in taking part, please don't hesitate to leave a comment!
