Vern Gosdin and Waylon.

GerDay All,

I will post a couple of Vern Gosdin songs (Chiselled In Stone and Do My Wrong) and a couple of Waylon Jennings songs and, believe it or not, a Garth Brooks song (which needs a lot of work on my part!!!).









And for Waylon .......







And, lastly (because it does need work), Garth Brook's If Tomorrow Never Comes




Kindest Regards

Indy

Another Alan Jackson song - or 2!








GerDay All,

I need to touch base with everyone and will do so in a few days ... or, at least, in upcoming weeks. I have blogs to read and emails to answer, but I will simply say that I have had some really dramatic things happen in recent times that I will bring people up to speed on in due course - but suffice to say it was and is still very unpleasant and has long lasting ramifications.

In the meantime, I will wish all of you a Happy and prosperous New Year and I will get around to everyone if and when I can!

In the meantime, I will post a couple of songs I have done.









This is first one. Terry may appreciate this one as a fulla who comes from near where she works sang it (and probably wrote it).

I will post a few more before I hit the sack!

Kindest Regards

Indy

Heal The World Project

GerDay All,

This is a collaboration by a group of Aussies on Singsnap that we call the "Heal The World Project".

Because there was so many records and re-records some of the audio quality in the chorus' was not the best, but I have to say I am extremely proud of the efforts of all my Aussie mates on there and I commend you to either view it here or double click on the graphic and go direct to June's (the person behind the project) Youtube page and show your appreciation - assuming you do!



Flooding Jackson

GerDay All,

Anyone who knows me knows that I absolutely love the Johnny Cash/June Carter Cash song, Jackson.

I have been fortunate that a few ladies on Singsnap have kindly consented to dueting this song with me.

I have to say that I do not have a favourite version! Both these ladies did a wonderful job and put their own "spin" or interpretation on how they think it should be done! I might add that I have never met these girls and probably won't ever meet them, but it is sure fun singing with them - in a manner of speaking!

There are varying levels of audio (volume) as each has to download the song, sing it, then upload it again, with variations introduced by the levels their systems are set at.

The first one is Sandii who is an Australian lass.







And the next one is GirlyB (Pam) who is in Texas, somewhere.

My Relaxation

GerDay All,

Part of my relaxation of recent times, has been participating in a couple of "on line" singing competitions. This seems to calm my mind, so if it works, do it! Hahahahaha

There are no prizes, no nothing. I do, however, get a deal of pleasure from participating in this stuff.

Here is my "round 8" submission in one such competition. The deal was we were supposed to "steal" or "rustle" a country duet from another singer on the site. In other words, duet with them without asking permission. This goes against the grain with me, but I have to say that my lady partner in this was wonderful about it when she discovered I had "stolen a kiss" from her - so to speak! Hahahahahaha





Not Much To Write About.

GerDay All,

Whilst there has been issues in my life, I am not a great one for broadcasting them. One of you already knows about them and I am slowly resolving the issues, however I am not about to tell the world my personal business!

As a consequence, all I can really share with you is some "singing" I have been doing on another site. If you hate country music, or you hate my voice, I suggest you don't click on the "play" buttons in the files in this and a couple of subsequent postings!!!!


The first one is a great old Conway Twitty song. I was inspired by an American OTR truckie who sang this whilst driving, video and all and it was dead set brilliant.

Hopefully my version isn't too aweful.
