Your own Cranes track

Hi all. Record your own cover of a Cranes track. No matter if you're only good with pots and pans or a flute. Record an mp3, or if you can't, PM me and send it off by post. Promise that Avonlady and I will pick the coolest track and will hand it over to Ali to get her opinion about it for you. Send in your tracks before the 1st of May. The ' winner' will hear from us before the end of May! We hope that some of you will participate! Get cracking...

Me to.

Although my musical talents probably fall to singing in the car, (and if I'm really daring) with the window rolled down. Wink

Ok ok. the arm's been twisted Smile

Send me your own track on cd or put it up in a link online, I'll download it all and will make a compilation cd of all the tracks, after which I promise I'll send it off to Alison. Ermmm....it would be kinda cool if at least 5 people participate I think and let's make the 1st of JULY the ultimate date before which you have to send in your stuff.
COME ON AND BOOGIE.

Nearly finished Very Happy

- Just gotta do the vox tomorrow

Where do I send the CD or is it easier to put a link to an MP3?

Just noticed I've left the rough vocal in the mix at the end - which goes out of tune - sorry kids

that'll teach me to leave it to last minute.

I'll do a minor tweak & repost it.

Also noticed I'm totally hogging this thread - I'll shut up now Very Happy

haven't finished mine yet -always bloody working!!!!

listened to "dead girl on the pavements" version of Septmeber though

Cool name. . Is my one of my most precious Cranes records -

love the Cure sounding guitar at the end but still trying to place who the

vocals remind me of. Need a few more listens but really impressed you

made the effort. Am gonna try and finish mine tonight if not it will be

fashionably late!!

I finally listened to the September cover. The vocals are a bit too "goth" for my taste, but otherwise I really enjoyed it. The music was great!
