SOTM February 2015 - House of the Rising Sun

Ha ha. A simple song I must have played umpteen times in my formative years. Easy peasy? Right?


Er.... No!

Alto won't play it. Intonation issues. I blame the cold weather or maybe the reed. Couldn't possibly be me. Aminor shouldn't be a problem. Doh! It is. Record -erase-record-erase-redorc-esare. Can't even spell now. Lets try another horn. Not my day. Split the reed clipping the mic on. Same problems. Keep going this reed is coming to a bit. This is as good as it's going to get today.

Following @Rob Pealing `s suggestion I have made my own version of the house of the rising sun because it is a song I knew before and like whereas I am not very familiar with the others ( I know shame on me ) but soon will be 😛.

I started fiddling about the backing track and suddenly felt I should put my own style with it and made a reggae version of it with a lot of improvs.
This is also the first proper recording I got of my supposedly better, brighter tone.
Hope you enjoy it.
