lurksalot Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 It's the end of another month of music making inspired by last months winner @Doctor J We have another fine selection for your listening enjoyment , so spare a little time and post 3 votes to show your preferences. The compositions were done using the following picture as the starting point. The entries are as follows .... 1 @Dad3353 It all started innocently enough. A fun day out in the fresh alpine air... 2 @NickD The picture suggested getting the hell out of somewhere, sharpish like, so I went for a simple rock & roll (ish) ditty about just that. I did initially have environmentally specific references in the lyrics (snow & such), but replaced them to generalise it a bit. 3 @Leonard Smalls Having been reminded of the film about the Jamaican bobsleigh team, and inspired by the recent thread on drum and bass, here's a bit of Caribbean-tinged DnB. With lots of bass! 4 @Nicko I imagine the lady in the picture is experiencing the same fear which our new PM will experience as she tries to solve the countries problems. With the current economic situation in the country reminding me of the late 70s and early 80s I though I'd do some English Ska. 5 @Nail Soup Picture is someone sliding, so I (eventually) thought of slide guitar. I only really use a slide on my cigar box guitar, made with my on fair hands a few years ago. So Cigar box slide it is. 6 @Doctor J I could empathise with the lady in the picture. As a youth, I had many an adventure which seemed like a great idea to start off with, but quickly sped beyond my control and ended with blood loss. Something fast and violent seemed appropriate. 7 @upside downer It's 2023, sixty years on from the last big freeze and Britain is once again covered in snow and ice. One intrepid granny is determined not to let the inclement weather get in the way of her weekly shopping routine. 8 Lurksalot by the look on her face she was never going to do it again .. OK then that is your lot , but boy , what a bunch we have again . Cast 3 votes , the poll will close at midnight on the 30th September Enjoy 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lurksalot Posted September 28, 2022 Author Share Posted September 28, 2022 I could have used a lot more votes this month (and not just to vote for mine) and realised everybody probably thought the same , and not to vote for mine 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
