This is one to share from a recent band rehearsal of Fat Wallet- Switzerland, that was recorded the "old-school" way- with 8 microphones, 1 on vocals, 2 on guitar, 1 on bass.  2 overhead mics on drums, 1 snare mic, and 1 bass drum mic.  played on my Fender u.s.a. strat, 1 marshall head, 1 marshall cab. fx- Uni-vibe- which gives that classic Hendrix sound. I'm proud of this recording, as it was impromtu of our only 2nd. rehearsal ! - Eliot Chambers - gtr. vocs, Walter Schüpbach- bass, and Markus Kalti- fantastic drums. I think we nailed it- what do you think??? let us know with a comment and thanks.

World War 3, (World War 3)…World War 3! x2

I’m sorry, sorry people- I gotta let ya know,
there’s gonna be a showdown- the East and West for sure,
NATO keeps a coming, with weapons more and more-
The Russians are a thinking nuclear war…
no-one’s talking peace only attack,
it’s gotten to the point, there is no turning back..
can’t ya hear the hellhounds barking at our door?
it’s WW-3, nuclear war!

ohhhh, I’m trying to warn you..
open you eyes.

World War 3, (World War 3)…World War 3! x2

Hyper sonic missles, pointed at your cities…
if you think it’s not real, then that’s a real pity.
We’re being lied to, by our politicians, 
the elites want this World in total submission..
and when the bombs fall, they be safe underground-
drinking Champagne and eating caviar,
laughing at the fools, yes-you and me..
who did’nt give a dam’n about WW-3

Ohhh, I’m tring to tell you,
to make you, make you realize-
we must start, start right now to protest…it’s our lives!

Stop WW-3  Stop WW-3   Stop WW-3   Stop WW-3

Ohhh, I’m trying to tell you, I’m trying to warn you-
just open your eyes, I’m trying to warn you, 
it’s not too late, there still might be a channce-
to stop this WW-3

World War 3, (World War 3)…World War 3! x 4
no,no,no,no,no,no,no,
Stop WW-3 !

"LOVE BLIND"  By Fat Wallet Band

"A Space Oddity" recorded and released in 1969- the year man walked on the moon, was a hit for David Bowie, and an artistic masterpiece...produce by Gus Dudgeon. I have always loved this song, long before I could play guitar or sing- so it was the greatest pleasure to re-make this song with my Fat Wallet Band-mates, Markus Kalt- Drums and Walter Schüpbach at the I.E.M. Recording studio, my studio in Switzerland.. as Engineer and producer I took great care in the recording process, to try and capture as close as possible the vintage tones and vibes of the original version. Our version was recorded with acoustic drums, no plug ins, no quantizing, or editing of the drum tracks, my Marshall model 1987x amp, an Ampeg SVT Bass amp, my Takamine Acoustic guitar, and microphones. old school, not pro tools. Enjoy the results- this was a labor of love- Eliot Chambers, Guitarist /Vocalist and Bowie fan.

This recording served 2 purposes, one, I am a huge fan of the early works of the band Queen, so this was a labor of love, 2ndly..It is a training song as I am learning my new recording system- the Presonus 32 track live/studio desk and the studio One version 7 DAW- this is a big learning curve for me, and this is the first completed song recorded and produced on this sytem at my studio I.E.M.- Switzerland.. My band mates and myself are very pleased with the results- Markus Kalt on Drums, Walter Schüpbach on Bass, myself -Eliot Chambers on Guitars and vocals- special thanks to Peggy Punk for singing additional backing vocals- we all hope you enjoy this classic Queen song, and remember -what a great singer/composer Freddy Mercury was.
