Just like the title says, the page is completed and live!

OK, so it took about 10 months longer than I had thought, but not all of it was my fault.
There were cyber attacks, platform changes, shoulder surgeries, email mailbox down-sizing, and a bunch of other stuff I can't remember, so I'm just gonna chalk it up to "brain fog."

Now... Keep in mind that, given how long this took to complete, some of the info posted might be misspelled, missing or flat out wrong. EX: there are a few tracks that I have no idea who sent them to me. The mailbox SNAFU took care of that.
Please PM me if there's anything that you've found to be incorrect or missing and I will correct it ASAP.

And now to get to work on TBOTHFC6/VI/SIX!!

HERE IT IS!
 
For the record, the info for Rabbit Hole (which didn't show up on the page) is as follows:

Jim Voorhees (diablo175) -all guitars
Forrest Wilkes- bass
Gary DeLucca- drums

Mixed/Mastered by Pete Cippa @ Crash Labs Studio

Hamer Cali Elite Custom (C3)
Hamer Cali Elite LE
 
How cool is that?

I could have/ should have added the following information for our song:
Band: Die Hektischen Flecken
Song: Gitarre spielen wie Johnny Marr (now the full title)
Drums: Louis
Bass: Jan
Vocals / Gitarre: Karsten
Guitar: me

Recorded at Wildwood Studios, Düsseldorf, 2026. It's an original song about the very talented Mr. Johnny Marr and what it would be like to have his muscial skills for once. It will be on our new album "Wahnsinn", which comes out next year (on vinyl too; I'm currently printing linocut covers).
I might post here when it's out.
 
Great Job to all!!
MY stuff was recorded in a bedroom on 1st generation Presonus gear. Mixed on headphones.
Jodi's song was written too/for a dear freind dying from breast cancer. I played it to her acoustically in her hospital room. She loved it. She died the following week. Her name was Jodi.
Do it up Right was written about driving away from my day job to a gig later that night. Which I definatley prefered over the regular money day job.
 
A lot of really good stuff on there. Holy shit!

Ours started as the Quinn Sullivan version of 'Let it Rain' (singer's request). Basic tracks were recorded live in the drummer's basement on a Tascam DP24SD (bass and keys direct, 3 mics on drums, along with some vocals and what would be scratch guitars).

Guitars and added vocals (singer refused to fix his f'ups, resulting in some..... creativity) were done in my guitar room (basement/dungeon), also on the Tascam, with guitars going direct from my old Boss GT-3.

No computers were harmed - or used - in the recording of this....thing, other than to store back-up files.
Engineered and mixed by the hearing impaired (me).
