Swinging drumsless gospel: 'Sunny Bird Up'
Song: Sunny Bird Up
Session Date: Friday November the third
Recording Gear: PC using Audacity; Tascam 488 MKII used as a mixer; Behringer C-1 condensator mic; SM 58 clone mic
Music Gear: Takamine Spanish guitar with steel strings
Log: An improvisation based on a smooth bluesy riff. I added some string-bending, then wrote some lyrics. First I tried to sing loud and high-pitched. That didn't work out well, so I tried a more casual style, crooning a bit. I added a guitar solo and threw a Wah over it. There you are.
Lyrics: I wanna push away seas of pain / Walls are stained / With the blood of a long lost friend / I heard the sound of war / The silent scars of things that used to be / Can you understand me / When I mutter in the rain / Oh, the waves of the ways in which I try to escape / From life and the fire of God / Stand up, sonny bird up! / You must fly into the sun and die and be dyed from red to white / With the paint of his righteousness (2x)
