Hero to Zero (Stoney/Snowdog)

[McLovin]

Thanks Jay!! Another one of Stoney's magic pieces...   

Let's see what else we can pull out of the top hat......bet it's a rabbit 

All good,. just as long as it's a rabbit out of the hat and not a gerbil out of the A%#.

Another xtc type offering guys!

Hey Ian, are you familiar with their song "The Man Who Sailed Around His Soul"?

"The man who sailed around his soul
From East to West, from pole to pole
With ego as his drunken captain
Greed, the mutineer, had trapped all reason in the hold"
                                                                           _ Alan Partridge, XTC.

A great song (and one of Englands finest bands).

This is in that same vein. You always come up with interesting and often quirky stories. The music is superb and you guys are beginning to develop your own inimitable sound.

Looking forward to hearing more from you and Mike.


Billy.

[Stoney]

Cheers Billy

I dont think I've heard that particular XTC track in fact I dont know much about them other than "Making Plans for Nigel" and "Sgt Rock"...a serious omission I think...I'm off to youtube shortly

Glad you like it and I hope Mike and I can keep developing these strange ditties ... it must be some kind of therapy. 

Ian

****Just watched the video...very jazzy and I love the Prisoner inspired set in Portmeirion ********

[AndyG6508]

hey the incomparable duo (Randall and Hopkirk),

cant wait to download this and listen on a decent system. im not even trying to listen through the very tinny speakers on the computer they have bestowed on me at site...

Andy

[Stoney]

Haha ..it's probably safer on the little speakers 

It must be a bugga living away from home for extended periods ...not sure I could stand it but hey if I got offered such a job....of course I would take it 

Home soon Ian

thanks Ian, yes, sometimes I feel like trashing my room. the prob is if i bung the TV set out through the window it would only land on a nice cushion of snow!

sadly, the times being such - one cant turn away work...but then you know it only too well dont you!!

Cheers
Andy

Nice tune! Great guitar playing as usual Mike

Roger

[Stoney]

Cheers Roger  Mike really pulled out the stops on this


Andy ...at the moment I would take any work with a pay cheque 

[Studioplayer]

Another off the wall tune by Ian.  Great stuff and fantastic guitars by Mike. I wanna get on one of your tunes one of these days!!

Dave

[Stoney]

You would be most welcome Dave and I'm glad you liked it.

Cheers Ian

[PVD]

Guys:

Enjoyed it, good listen.

Paul

[AndyG6508]

Oh wow - what a track!! Simply love it!!! Warning: when Stoney gets serious....

"Out of the world" guitar playing Mike, great vocal and drumming Stoney (Ian Brown has nothing on you).

Everything about this song is great - wonderful dynamics - love the intro/outro too.

Another side of you Stoney...too bad you had a competent bassplayer lined up for this one.

Well done you two!!

Cheers
Andy

[Stoney]

Cheers Paul and thanks for the listen

And thanks Andy ..you are very kind...this one is a bit odd really and I didn't have a competent bass player at all but I thought you were rather busy and away from home so I used my bass track..simple but it works...I'm sure I will have more tracks if you are interested.

Cheers  Ian

Good one , like the guitar textures    Lots of different sounds in there but it all hangs together nicely.
