Just a short test of me playing bass and making a multi-track recording wtih the Tascam DP-004

Last Train Take 1

Put a High D string on my Lanikai baritone today to see how it sounds. I think I like it. 

Amazing Grace High D

My cover of the classic Kingston Trio song about Bostons MTA subway transit system.  Good bass and harmony practice. I lived off the Red Line for a year and have fond memories of "The T"

Played on my Lanikai LU21 beater baritone, and Ashbory Bass. Recorded on a Tascam DP008 multi-track using the built-in mics.

MTA (Kingston Trio Cover)

Grandfathers Clock

My third and final take on this cover. I've been stuck on the Kingston Trio this week, but I'm tired of messing with this one, so it will have to do for now. Recorded with a Lanikai STEQ tenor ukulele, Ashbory bass, and a Tascam DP008. 

Tiajuana Jail Cover V3f Baritone Ukulele Bass, and voice

My first cut at a cover of this old Kris Kristofferson song. Played on my Lanikai STEQ tenor and 21B baritone. Drums played poorly on the finger pads of my Boss DR3 drum machine. I cleaned up the language a bit to make it family friendly, or at least as family friendly as this song can be lol

If You Don't Like Hank (Cover of Kris Kristofferson song)

A collaboration between SweetWaterBlue in the US and Andrew Skelton in the UK. Baritone and tenor ukuleles and voice. We blame any mistakes on the distance across the Atlantic Ocean

Colours (Donovan Cover) Collaboration

A very short collab I did with one of my ukulele buddies, Richard. He was singing the lead and playing a concert uke. and sent me this recording about 3 years ago.  I laid down a bass track on it later on my Ashbory bass and provided some backup singing. This is a first cut.
