Day 16

 

It’s that time of the week again! We’re recording another Duo Session! This time it’s a completely new song we have never done before. One we’ve loved forever! We always felt like it was missing some harmonies, so we took the freedom to rearrange it slightly.

This time we’re going more electric, using the stomp box, and switching our acoustic guitars for our Rickenbackers (guitar and bass!).

It’s a song written by two brothers (hint, hint) and we’ve seen it suggested in the Forum, too! It’s been on our to-do list for a while now, and you’ll be able to hear it on Friday. Anyone want to guess?

M&L xx

  1. Get ladies I got my Orange CD yesterday. Wow it is great and I am talking every song!!!! I am very satisfied.
    I would like to be one of the first to say Happy National Twins Day to you both. It is the first time I have heard of this special day, but it was on facebook. If there was an award for the most Beautiful twins you would get my vote!!!!
    Have a wonderful night.
    Peace,Love, & Just Stay Groovy,
    David Jones

  2. Hello Ladies,
    I am thinking it will be something from the Everly brothers. I am from Madisonville, Kentucky and they were from Central City, Kentucky which is 30 minutes from me.
    By the way I just found out it is National Twins Day today. I just want to say Happy Twins Day to 2 very beautiful ladies that play great music and I love your harmonies. Keep up the great sound.
    I got my Orange CD yesterday and WOW is it awesome!!!!!
    Love, Peace, and stay Groovy,
    David Jones

    1. Hey, David!
      I’m also David, and I’m also from Kentucky, and I have a “National Day” calendar on my wall, but somehow Twins Day sneaked up on me. Good catch!
      Happy National Twins Day to MLT, even though they’re in a different nation.

      1. Well, I misled you a little: I’m “from” Kentucky, but not “in” it. I was born and raised in Lexington, but I’m living in North Carolina now. But my parents and siblings are all still in central KY, so I visit there a lot.
        I don’t think I’ve ever been to Madisonville, although I have passed near it once or twice driving along what used to be called the Western KY Parkway.

  3. Looking forward to Friday! I see the Kinks up there, with some Shaved Fish. Do the “Nerk Twins” count as brothers?
    Either way it will be fab to see you with a couple of BeatleBackers!

  4. Must be the Kinks or LB wouldn’t be watching over them on the shelf. Can’t wait to hear your take cause I know it will be better than the original. Love your versatility!!!

  5. I’m hoping it’s Waterloo Sunset by the Kinks but Cathy’s Clown is a good possibility also. All I want to do is Dream wasn’t written by the Everly brothers so scratch that favorite. Friday we’ll all know which new song you took the plunge on.

  6. Did Krampus come to see you this year? (I certainly hope not. But with your dad, anything is possible?)
    I see Lampi got thirsty ?
    As for the song, I’ll go with the Kinks and Waterloo Sunset. It screams for harmonies???❤ As does Cathy’s Clown?.
    Have a great day Ladies

    1. We got away lightly this year! I looked in the mirror this morning before having my coffee but other than that – no Krampuses were seen in the Merseyside area this winter.

  7. Following are previous posts with my requests:
    “The Kinks, Tired of Waiting for You would be nice but my preferred MLT cover would be for “Waterloo Sunset”, “Dedicated Follower of Fashion” or “Sunny Afternoon” (in their “Daydream” style perhaps).
    AND
    Favourites at the time were “Dedicated Follower of Fashion”, “A Well Respected Man” and “Sunny Afternoon”, but my all time favourite Kinks song is “Waterloo Sunset” and I live in hope that Mona and Lisa will one day cover it!

    While Beatles poetry indicates friendship is everything, ‘Waterloo Sunset’ indicates loneliness is nothing to worry about.

    Beatles: I get by with a little help from my friends.

    Kinks: But I don’t, need no friends.”

  8. That is a tough one. Was thinking Everly Brothers, but the Kinks also consist of 2 brothers. Given you say they could do with some harmonies, and you are going to use electric guitars, my guess is the Kinks . Tired of Waiting for You , Waterloo Sunset, Sunny Afternoon were all requested. Tired of Waiting for You could do with more harmonies, so that is my guess, but any of these 3 would be awesome. 🙂

    1. If that Kinks Face to Face album sitting on the shelf has anything to do with a hint, then I change my choice to “Sunny Afternoon” as neither Tired of Waiting nor Waterloo Sunset are on that album, but Sunny Afternoon is and it was also requested in the forum. I will go with Sunny Afternoon. 🙂

  9. Well the Everly Brothers didn’t write “Bye, Bye Love”, so I’m going with “Cathy’s Clown” if it’s the Everleys. Ray and Dave Davies didn’t write together but if it’s a Kinks number, I’m going with Ray Davies’ “Waterloo Sunset”.

  10. Hello Mona & Lisa!
    Ray and Dave Davies My second favorite Band. Tired Of Waiting For You
    Have a Nice Day Everyone!

  11. I thought Everly Brothers too, maybe “All I Have To Do Is Dream” or “Bye Bye Love” or “Wake Up, Little Susie”… but wait, “missing some harmonies”? That doesn’t sound like Everly Brothers… Besides, those were all written by Felice and Boudleaux Bryant, weren’t they?

    So, I dunno.

    1. Well I’m sure you’ll find a cover of “All I Have To Do Is Dream” there somewhere Rich, I think they were only around 16 years old from memory and they’ve definitely done a live cover of “Wake Up, Little Susie”.

      1. Yep, I knew about “All I Have To Do Is Dream”… YouTube tells me I watched it as recently as August 28. Forgot about it for a few moments yesterday though!

        Which is not to say you couldn’t do a remake. After almost nine years, you might come to it with new ideas.

  12. OK… You’re giving my brain thinking a workout… Everlys…. Uh… Going to have to go checkout forum for hints… Lol… Looking fwd to whatever it will be and how you’ve MLTBuzzTwineaked it…. ??
