Anybody else having problems accessing the site today? I haven't tried from my computer but my phone keeps giving me security errors.

I was just thinking of posting my version of this song, but what's the first thing I see when entering the forum but this. Dang, foiled again. 😄 Guess I'll wait a couple of months now. . . .
Good job on the more traditional version. I'm sure Hank would approve. Not so sure what he'd think of mine. 😅

You wouldn't need anything but wave files if everybody was just playing solos. Even that can be long work though if you have a lot of people participating. I was in a forum that did that about 20 years ago. The guys had a lot of fun it seemed.
Not something I'd be much good at but I'm sure I'll enjoy listening to the others.

Think you've heard "Over the Rainbow" so many times you're sick of it? Eva's arrangement makes it like a new song and yet it's still the old one too. She could have given clinics in arranging. And what a singer.

A "jam" is just a bunch of people taking turns soloing, generally over a standard instrumental tune. It's easy live but to do it in an interweb recording means knowing exactly how many people will be soloing so you know exactly how many measures to use for the song's length. Somebody has to put a head and a tail on things and then just have bass and drums to solo over.

The problem is that the vast majority of people don't have minds of their own. People listen to whatever is popular, and what's popular is whatever the money people decide to make popular. In the 60's you had payola. After laws were made to prohibit that somewhat, the hoods who use to just own record companies started buying radio stations too by the dozens and they were darn well gonna play their own artists. That's why when you drive across the country you'll find the exact same artists and songs on the radio.
Now with digital downloads, don't think that the same record companies aren't paying places like YT and Spoitify to "suggest" certain songs to people in their news feeds.
Only small genres like folk and bluegrass are truly independent today and that's only because they're small niche markets that don't sell enough units to interest the hoods.
The real heart of the matter in my opinion is that bad people outnumber good people in this world by a large margin.

Remembering Miles Davis today. So What.
I read an interview with him once where someone asked him who his favorite musician was and he said, "I am. If I didn't like the way I played I wouldn't play that way." That tickled me to no end.

"However, I look around today and see that the world got exactly what it wanted...."
CS Lewis said that for some people Hell might be getting exactly what they want . . . until they're sick of it. And as usual, he was probably right.

I just stand in front of a cam and play and sing. Keeping it simple so the attention is on the song / arrangement.

That makes you special. The Chinese have got more important things to do than listen to my boring life. I'm like George Gobel in a coma.
