Messin round with the S-950 - 06/29/19 10:15 AM

Very hot and humid here today, heat index at 118 and code red air quality index - stayin in the house. I sat down at the S-950 and put this one together using the Slow Bossa style, "B" variation, tempo of 105, singing into my old Sennheiser E-855 that DNJ suggested I purchase many years ago. I'm sure some of you older guys and gals will remember Ferry Cross The Mersey by Gerry And The Pacemakers, which came out in 1965. Ironically, that was about the same time the first pacemakers were being implanted in patients in the hospital I was employed.

The next time I record a song, I will try to video the recording/playing process. Gotta go to the boat to get the camera home, though.

Enjoy,

Thanks guys, for listening and commenting. Just went outside to water the flowers and plants because they take a real bad beating on days like this. The impatiens were drooping badly, but within five minutes of giving them a quick drink, the filled right out and looked fantastic. I guess a cold drink is in store for me now, lemonade this time of day, though. smile Gotta get back on the oxygen - my lungs need a drink as well.

Thank again, for listening and those encouraging words,

Thanks JM for those kind words. I have always enjoyed the music of the 60s, and this is a typical example of what we had back then.

All the best,

Gary, I am a HUGE fan of 60s music, played a lot of it in my day! Great job!
Thanks for sharing with us! We had a HUGE downpour here today which caused quite a bit of flooding on our street . . . Guess that’s typical for Florida in June!
