That's a lovely song. I also like the other "Tuppence" song, the one sung by the bankers. "Stay Up Late" has been well-covered by greater talents than mine, so I think I'm leaning toward the song/letter by Jane and Micahel advertising for a new nanny: "If you want this choice position/have a cheery disposition..." So many great songs in Mary Poppins. Check out the Sweet Clementines CD at bandcamp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it the moog Cookbook that www.moogworld.com gets some of it's rock covers from (i.e., Hotel California, 25 or 6-4, Ain't Talkin' Bout Love, etc.)? BTW - If you haven't checked out MoogWorld.com, it's alternatively hilarious or invokes a weird acid flashback... Worth a listen if you haven't done so already (Keyboard had it as Web site of the month or some such thing a few months back, and there was probalby already a thread on it.

marino Posted September 26, 2001 Share Posted September 26, 2001 *Mmmmmmaybe* I have an already recorded tune that would fit. This would overcome all deadline problems too. It's based on the Tammurriata, a very ancient dance from the south of Italy; maybe you think you don't know it, but when you hear the melody, it's one of those archetype things. It's been used in film music, etc. I gave it a bit of the Bartok/Strawinsky treatment... http://www.musicplayer.com/ubb/smile.gif Only problem: It's played by a string quartet (of the human kind). Yeah, I used Cubase to write it, and Kurzweil to demo it, but no keyboards in the recording, I'm afraid. Making a version for synths... I don't know. Dave, is there a chance this piece would qualify?

Llarion Posted September 26, 2001 Share Posted September 26, 2001 Originally posted by steadyb: Is his live album from the 70's still available??? It has that great medley of commercial jingles he wrote (State Farm, McDonalds, Dr Pepper, etc.) Yes, it's still in print on CD; it is slightly abridged from the double vinyl (the song Beautiful Music and it's reprises are gone. the VSM (Very Strange Medley) to which you refer is there, without the spoken intro. I thought about it... But it's longer than 5:00. ------------------ Cheers! Phil "Llarion: The Jazzinator" Traynor www.mp3.com/llarion Smooth Jazz Cheers!

If you feel that this is representative of your work, I suppose it'd be okay; however, if you'd rather do another cover tune using keyboards and you're just using this one because it's already done, I think I'd rather extend the deadline to the end of December so that you could have the time to do one.

In this case chances are I will be able to contribute to the project as well. I would love to do this. Can I (a musician from Estonia) contribute?

Robert Smedberg Posted September 26, 2001 Share Posted September 26, 2001 I just noticed the Shure advert above. Funny coincidence. http://www.shureaudio.com/roots/contest.html I also want the deadline to be the end of December. ------------------ --Smedis,-- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Klopmeyer Posted September 26, 2001 Share Posted September 26, 2001 Okay, I'm in. End of Novemeber...sheesh, tight but I could do it. If you do decide to go ahead and extend it to end of December, I'll glad take the extra month. See, I need only three minutes to create the tune...but three months to decide which one I want to do. http://www.musicplayer.com/ubb/smile.gif - Jeff Marketing Communications for MI/Pro Audio My solo music and stuff They Stole My Crayon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We gotta do something about it! http://www.musicplayer.com/ubb/biggrin.gif Dave, actually I had the idea to submit the string quartet not only because it's already recorded, but also I think it's one of the nicest works I've done recently. Never mind: I realize I'm stretching the rules too much. So, if you feel there are enough people wanting to extend the deadline, I'll be happy to record something else that includes keyboards; if not, I'll be watching from the wings this time, no problem. http://www.musicplayer.com/ubb/smile.gif As for the string quartet, would someone be curious to listen to it, I'll post it on my site. In fact, I'm going to upload a whole bunch of mp3s.. Thanks again! marino Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pim Posted September 27, 2001 Share Posted September 27, 2001 I am already working on it. This is great fun. The very first time I am doing a cover version. I limited myself to use 3 synthesizers only: Minimoog, Andromeda and the Prophet VS; plus the MPC 60 for the drums. Can I reveal the song already? ------------------ -- Pim -- www.dancewave.nl My Music I always wondered what happened after the fade out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved what you did for the compilation cd, Marino. I expect to have a ear to ear grin listening to this one too.
