Freddie at Salzburg Airport...nah, not really but the Convair Metropolitan and stairs are real (at Finnish Aviation Museum).

valse yeux noirs
Testing a "new" microphone, Tandberg TM 6. A bit old-fashioned sound but yet in a pleasant way, clearly better than I expected from a 60's-70's Norwegian design. Not bad at all!
Les Yeux Noirs is an old traditional gypsy tune, and it can be played as a valse too. This is how my daughters like it when we play together.

River Moon
Here's a quick sketch for a new tune, the chord progression is final-ish but the melody is just a "ipsum lorem" thing for now. Might recycle some good parts, though. Played with a Fender Strat direct into audio interface, PSP PianoVerb and some Kjaerhus Classic VST effects.

Freddie's Cat
Django had his famous "Tiger", so Freddie's got a "Cat". Django's favourite chord progression was "Tiger Rag", but there isn't much left of it in here and besides it's in minor key now. It's all clichés - true, but they are all my personal clichés!
Nylon string acoustic, bronze string archtop into Sennheiser condenser microphone and fretless electric bass direct into ART Tube MP, mastered on Technics RS-AZ6 cassette deck with Fostex 3180 spring reverb. No other fx except Reaper EQ plug-in.

Le Caravan
Ellington classic: le caravan [mp.3]
Played with overcoat buttons as guitar picks. The guitar is also tuned down a semitone to E flat, maybe brings the overall loudness down a bit but sounds better to me. And the maximum acoustic volume doesn't really matter when recording.
