In my case...it might have to be a DVR live-in-the-studio concerto for guitar/drum machine, as both my recording partners are tied up on other things...but, yeah, I definitely want to contribute again.
Nice one CR. :cool:

Thanks, Marky. Something is percolating in my brain as I speak -- I'll give it a shot tomorrow.

...and, coming in hot 'n' heavy on the above-mentioned news, here's entry #2:

http://chairmanralph.com/sitebuilder/fl ... laylist.xm

So, basically, you've got both sides of the Australian-only single ("Three Card Trick"/"Cool Under Heat") going on...and why does this version of the latter song repeat that fist-waving chorus so often? Because we owe it to the fans. And the kids...that's why. :mrgreen:

Sorry! Forgot to upload the file...d'oh..."senior moment" was the term invented for times like these, I believe. Anyway -- try it now. Or is that -- do it now?

Thanks for your thumbs-up, Marky: half the fun of doing these things is figuring out what elements will work with what.

On Cool Under Heat, for instance, the guitar tabs that I've seen give the changes as B-E-F# -- but I went with the A-D-E trifecta, which (IMO) is brighter and suits the overall vibe of the song better. This sets up the contrast between the B-Em and B-A sections.

For Three Card Trick, I thought it important to keep the choppy reggae vibe -- I remember hearing some ska band doing it (their name escapes me at the moment) -- and they totally eliminated it, which didn't sound quite right to these ears.

I particularly enjoyed your remixes of Life Is Wild and We Are The Clash -- they turn both of those songs inside out! And I'd say that your version of Play To Win gives that track a coherence that's not quite apparent from its original recorded incarnation...if ever an album lent itself to such treatment, CTC is it. :mrgreen:
