Freedom and Mercytag:www.freedomandmercy.com,2008-10-11://12009-06-28T15:29:22ZMovable Type 4.21-en2 New Recordings Just Addedtag:www.freedomandmercy.com,2009://1.432009-06-28T15:13:52Z2009-06-28T15:29:22Zgates2 Ricky and Helen are atop Mount Cathedral, and Michael laid down a terrific track on Out On A Limb 2. Find it here. My vocals still play Helen's vocal on this song, but Ricky's best friend Bo shows up again.
Bo's stupidity plays a vital part in the story!
The other new track is Hey Ho! Find it here. Deby Elis plays the busty Margo, and here Michael gives another knockout performance on the track as Ricky. Hey ho!!

The first one of this session was the first Freedom And Mercy song. Pretty airy and ethereal. Listen to it on the song's page.
Three short song string together with one of Helen's in a trio of the passion Ricky and Helen are building. Michael's tracks rock. Listen to I Have A Picture/Give/Freedom And Mercy 2 at it's song page.

Not only did Michael rock royally with his pipes and inflections, this is the first track of the demo recordings (currently in progress!) where three of the story's main characters are in the same song - Ricky, Margo and Dr Gaylord. Sweet.

New talent for Ricky in Suntowntag:www.freedomandmercy.com,2009://1.342009-01-29T18:33:12Z2009-02-03T18:11:22Zgates2All right, new talent is on the way in Ricky's character, starting off with Suntown and Out On A Limb. Michael is planning on bringing Ricky's voice to life, as he redoes the tracks I've got of Ricky so far. Yay!
The new tracks will hopefully come soon, and you can hear the break out songs for the new recording at Ricky's main character page (go to the bottom of that page) . This is how these recordings are done - break down the character's parts in the song, put it on the site for download or listening, and put a copy of the same tracks without the vocal so it can be practiced. The lyric sheet is available too. Fun!

Go> The story ends on this page where Ricky and Helen are alone on the mountaintop (oooh!) and their love is cresting just as Helen is starting to realize some deeply important things about herself.
It's been a while since I done a lot of recording for F&M because of the move to Vancouver. Geez, I need to keep that going, and I've been writing the keyboard part for How Many Times Have I Hear This? Go> and have laid down a guitar track on that one. More later!
And more images will be added to these content pages as I get them. Whew (wait, I already said that).
Let me know what you think and how things are going in your neck of the woods.
