HMHS 175 - Strings and Things
Welcome to another fun packed home recording, songwriting, and I guess general music podcast hosted by Genial Dave Criddle and Mean Tony Butterworth.
This week we discuss
- Dave's XTC Gig
- Guitar Maintenance
- Strings
- Lily Allen's annoying blog
- Getting poetic in your lyrics
We play a great pro song from Frank Turner (http://www.frank-turner.com/) called Substitute and we recommend that The Cracks check him out.
and of course Dave Chick delivers his 2-3 hour song. I recommend we start a rap style war where we all abuse each other in song.
Songs
Ralph Tonge – English Summer
Jay McAllistee – Killa
Dave Chick - Tony is a SUPERSTAR !!!!!
