Garbage Files Episode 1

I am still sifting through stuff and have a lot to sift through. I mean, there's 20+ years of stuff to pick from. Plus, it's not as easy to transfer files, especially from one really old computer I have where the bulk majority sits. This one was a full song, but I never had an actual title for it. I just called it Experiment 1 for no particular reason, and because I never decided to "release" it, never felt a reason to give it a name. I remember that I did write and put together and record this whole thing in about 7 hours. As the title suggests, it was just an "experiment," and I was just having fun with a new guitar my family got me for Christmas that year. I still consider it one of my favorite guitars. Nothing fancy, but perfect for me. According to my records this was recorded in 2017.

@just4him No time for crappy songs, I take it? Fine. Be that way. Oh wait. Maybe you are just too busy shoveling snow? That's gotta be it.

Thank you. You are way too kind, but I do appreciate it. Trying to figure out now what next for the next installment. Trying to keep these staggered about a week apart. I don't want to crowd the site, but with 20+ years worth of files... Where to start? lol

@porwest As with everything - just post the first one then later another and before you know it, twelve months will have passed and you'll only have another x years to go.

Thank you. I am glad you enjoyed it. Not "radio" worthy of course, but I just have fun exploring and experimenting around, and of course sharing it is fun too.

Thank you ma'am. Should have another one coming quite soon. I am trying to keep them at least a week apart. I hate crowding the site with anything, especially this sort of thing.

It's funny how sometimes the things we do for fun end up being some of our favorite creations. And how special that it was all put together in just 7 hours! I hope you continue to enjoy playing that guitar and creating music that brings you joy.

Always, and thank you for listening. It continues to be one of my favorite things to do in my spare time and a good excuse to find reasons to have spare time. lol
