Name: Ooh La La by MarcB-99
Duration: 4 min 1 s
Description: Bashed out on my Tascam 4-track recorder. A few acoustic guitars, bass, and me singing. An absolute classic Ronnie Lane / Faces song - sorry about my awful version.

Cheers Mark, a lovely version of a great song by one of my musical heroes, the very under rated Ronnie Lane (RIP). Perhaps some mandolin could be added once we are out of lockdown. Well done and keep on turning these out to inspire the rest of us. Regards, Grandad!

Pleasant and flowing and the vocal carries the story and that tone of regret.

The Dirt Road Band - Live In Gighouse Studios, Royal Leamington Spa. Excerpts from three tracks.

DRB Live In The Gighouse

Bar room rock with a touch of blues and rock. Goes down well with a beer.

Moondance

Recorded in the Surrey Hills, at AJA Studios, by 60s & 70s band the Surrey Pumas.  Recorded 'live' in the studio (OK there were a few overdubs. But not many).

Dead Flowers

I love the chords of this song, but I sure can't sing it like Billie Paul did.  Or like any decent singer. Thanks to Gamble and Huff, who wrote it. 
I'm playing piano and keyboard, bass guitar, and using a Beatbuddy drum pedal. No guitar this time, I couldn't figure out a part.

Me And Mrs Jones (MB solo)

Back to the 60s! Sorry Suzanne, by  the Hollies.  Me on bass, guitars and vocals. Drums by Beatbuddy.

Sorry Suzanne (MB solo)

Multi-track recording of myself, using a Tascam 4-track recorder. Acoustic guitar, bass, keyboard and vocals.

Heroes (MB solo)

Me on acoustic guitar (x2), bass and vocals, with the help of two pedals: a Beatbuddy and a Voicetone.  No attempt at lead guitar - not enough tracks (that's my excuse anyway)!
A bit karaoke perhaps, but a good song all the same.

Living On A Prayer - MB (solo)

Bashed out on my Tascam 4-track recorder. A few acoustic guitars, bass, and me singing. An absolute classic Ronnie Lane / Faces song - sorry about my awful version.
