It's time. All the preparation's have finally yielded fruit. But before I put out, I've got to give a little thanks where it is due.
This time it's in reverse order of appearance.
First off, the biggest accolade's go to _Jon of We Swear, who has graciously provided server space for my little ditty. Go and tell him what a kick ass guy he is for helping me out.
Second, I thank Eric the Linear Caucasion Gentleman for posting up his bit of guitar playing(check it out if you haven't already. It's really good.), thereby egging me on to get some playin' and singin' out there as well.
Lastly there's Harvey of Bad Example. He's the guy who is able to pester someone so much that they eventually just give in to his requests. He bugged me into blogging, and then he cajoled Eric and I into posting a bit of pickin' just for his own amusement. (At least he has sound resons for doing things.)
Without further ado, here's the link to my little MP3.
The server will prompt you to download the file, which is 1.4MB in size, so I recommend that you have either a broadband hookup, or a lot of time on your hands.
Enjoy.
P.S. Sorry Harvey. You won't be able to make up any lyrics to this one, as I actually sing.
Posted by Johnny - Oh at August 14, 2004 10:44 PMYay! Hooray for _Jon's server! The music wasn't bad either ;-) Now I know what's meant when people talk about a "velvet voice". Thanks!
Posted by: Sally at August 15, 2004 01:40 PM...bravo... bravo...
Posted by: Eric at August 15, 2004 03:41 PMWell Sally it was my pleasure. :^) I'm not sure I have a "velvet voice" as you say, but I can tell you that listening to my own voice in a recording like this is certainly wierd.
(Taking a bow for Eric) No applause please. Just throw money. ;^)
Posted by: Johnny - Oh at August 15, 2004 09:19 PMNot bad, not bad all! :) So when are you and Eric going to record something together?
(crap, now I sound like Harvey!!!)

Milky Waters & Johnny Clapton...
Looking forward to it :-)
Posted by: Harvey at August 16, 2004 01:32 PMI'm having dinner with him tonight, so I'll float it by him and let you all know.
Posted by: Johnny - Oh at August 16, 2004 03:05 PMI'm so damned proud of my family. Sally and Johnny-Oh so very musical. Everyone else just writes so well....and you're stories, ah you're stories.
Ya'll make this girl very happy to be a part of the Bad Example!!!!
Thanks for sharing.
Posted by: Tammi at August 16, 2004 03:23 PMHow fun was that?!!! That one is worth another listen. It's just so odd now to hear your voice. Now when I read, it will have a different sound in my head.
