TMV World Legacy Member Slow Start Posted June 6, 2013 TMV World Legacy Member Posted June 6, 2013 I heard this song recently, and was inspired to arrange my own acapella version on the fly. Came up with a 4 part harmony and sang along for a little today. I think this would be an awesome thing to actually finish as well... It made me pay a lot of attention to onsets with the mmmm's.

TMV World Legacy Member ronws Posted June 7, 2013 TMV World Legacy Member Posted June 7, 2013 That was cool, Slow. I didn't expect that you could do celtic melody and harmony. I am impressed. And if I could make a request, I think it would be way cool if you could do the original arrangement of "Whiskey in the Jar," as recorded by Luke Kelly and the Dubliners. Check it out on you tube. You have the right range to sing it like Luke did. Or even just arrange it for one guitar.
TMV World Legacy Member Slow Start Posted June 7, 2013 Author TMV World Legacy Member Posted June 7, 2013 Thanks for the advice, Owen. I'll definitely keep the harmony reverb in mind when I record a full over of this one. I had fun recording... needed a click track and still had to snap my fingers to tighten up the timing. It is definitely challenging. I just REALLY wanted a proper acapella track to sing the melody to, hah. Thanks for the compliments, Ron! I didn't know I could do celtic melody and harmony either! 'Twas very enjoyable to figure out. The Dubliners song is very interesting... different than my usual, but still really enjoyable. Love the narrative quality to the lyrics. The song definitely sounds in range for me... So glad folk music doesn't have a bunch of C5's and stuff! UPDATE!

But all that mixing in the 4th octave, that what gives most people, including tenors, fits.
