REMEMBER TONIGHT

Rick Alexander · Post by **Rick Alexander** » 23 Nov 2006 3:04 pm

by Herb Remington & Rick Alexander.

The CD will be ready to go very soon.
We weren't going to release another single until the CD is out, but I thought you guys might like to hear a little sneak prevue.
This is a song Herb and I wrote especially for this CD, it's called REMEMBER TONIGHT.
Herbie on Steel Guitar and Yours Truly on Guitars and Bass.
It's a laid back little ditty for the end of an evening . .
The page with graphics and the file embedded is here
and the MP3 itself is here.

Wow, that's the type of music that sucks my heart right up to my ears.

Laying back in my lazyboy chair, eyes closed and slowly slipping away from the real world.

Beautiful Rick.

Rick,

Sounds really nice to me also. That one is another future "Swingin' West" air play item. Nice going! That CD by you and Herbie should be quite a dandy and hopefully sell well.

Very relaxing, so well performed. Nice composition with a very interesting chord progression.

A very nice song, and beautiful, expressive playing by Herbie.

Aloha,

That was great Rick. Herb's playing is just so smooth. You did a great job on the mix too.

I can't wait to hear the CD.

Herb's playing is beautiful and I love his tone.

Rick, could you post some details about Herb's gear and how you recorded him?

Sounds very nice and oh so smoooooooth.

Hey, it's also a nice little ditty for the morning hours when you're taking it easy. Great job! Nice tune, by the way.

Thanks for all the nice comments guys, I'm glad you like it.

When Herb flew here for the sessions all he brought was his bar and picks. He played my Remington Steelmaster T-8 and my Rickenbacker BD6 through a Music Man HD130 212 Amp. I close mic'd the amp with an SM57 and mic'd the room with an AKG 414.

The CD will be ready within the week.
Herb said we should call it "SWEET TALKING STEEL GUITARS of Herb Remington and Rick Alexander", so that's what it's going to be called.

The SWEET TALKING STEEL GUITARS CD is finally ready to ship.
Here is the info and ordering page.

This is a wonderful CD that will be a definite part of my "Swingin' West" play lists.

Rick, when I click on "Buy Now" it gives me a paypal form to pay "Richard Wadds" with the "payment for" and amount both blank.

I can fill in the blanks but wanted to make sure it at least has the right account.

That is his adult movie name...

Didn't you know?

It's true - the residuals from those steamy flicks paid for my guitars.

Hey Rick,
I am keen to buy your CD, Wasn't sure what to pay as theres no shipping costs to Australia on your info page. Would you please advise so I can make the purchase.
Thank You.
Pete

Rick Alexander · Post by **Rick Alexander** » 26 Nov 2006 5:51 am

Thanks Pete. I've made the correction on the page so all our Australian friends can get STSG.

It was such a good idea to get Herb out to your studio. Did you have any fun while he was there?

I bet he had a great time playing all of your toys.

I can't wait to hear this CD.

Rick Alexander · Post by **Rick Alexander** » 26 Nov 2006 6:52 pm

G-man, thanks for your payment. Your CD will be shipped tomorrow with a number of others, so you won't have to wait much longer.

I'm sure Herb's tone live is awesome... but I just wanted to say Rick, I LOVE the way you've captured it in this recording. [This message was edited by Jeff Au Hoy on 29 November 2006 at 05:28 PM.]
