Chris is the originator of Strikes a Chord an open forum blog where you can post music, comments and share - it doesn't have to be folk - in fact we could do with some metal, occasionally.

Drop by, leave some sounds.

Apple Scrumpy

Here's some recoverable audio from last nights practice as we worked on 'Apple Scrumpy'.
Not quite there yet, as Mark has to cope with singing my lyrics.
To paraphrase Harrison Ford while speaking to George Lucas, " writing this sh**'s easy, but you try saying it!".

I'm Only Happy When it Rains-boo!

We seem to have struck a chord here http://strikesachord.posterous.com/
Chris and PB are picking up that Great Depression vibe.

PB Guttenburg's greatest tune....

Go Lewdite

I haven't dropped in on Lewdite for a while but the guy speaks sense and plays from the heart.

Apple Scrumpy

First run through of the innuendo laden ripe fruit tune!

Off the Leash

We let Carl of the leash for three minutes at the last practice and this is the result.

Apple Scrumpy

However you cut it songs about cider always sound like the Wurzels.

Apple Scrumpy(pumpy)

 

The 15 gallons of Old Grumble Belly are bubbling away happily in the cider shed after this years mammoth cider making day - we could have made 150 gallons but there's just not enough hours in the day.

We've also been getting a bit fruity with the tunes lately (see previous posts) and Carl feels we should have a cider song for the set (but not that one!), so here goes... Apple Scrumpy

Verse
G Sit beneath this apple tree C with me sweet Ida Red,
G Sit beneath this apple tree with D7 me sweet Lilibet,
G Sit beneath this apple tree and C drink some apple crush,
G Irish Peach, D7 my sweet Maiden's G Blush.
Chorus
D Lets make apple scrumpy, G lets make love tonight,
D lets make apple scrumpy, G till the morning light
D Lets make apple scrumpy, G right here on the ground,
D Take a swig, feels alright, take you time, it'll last all night.
