Glad to see you tried this one - I'm looking forward to hearing it!

Let me know what you think

I really loved this poetry, particularly the visual imagery. You could almost hear the paddle in the water.

We should find more of this type to record.

Here is my version:

Distorted in one spot, but what the hey, it was good, so I didn't redo it.

Brad, your poem sounds great... would you please add a few seconds at the end of the file?... it sounds like it chops off the word Texas.

I also received two files in my email without identification... anyone want to claim these? The files I have are:

- song_my_paddle_sings_johnson_pj.mp3 (this one sounds great, but also needs a couple of seconds added to the end)
- song_my_paddle_sings_johnson_mb.mp3 (this one is really quiet, we may need to do some volume boost on it)

I need the following information posted here:
- your name as you would like it credited on the catalog page
- any URL by which you would like it accompanied
- which file is yours

Thanks =)

My recording is the 'mb' one, Thistlechick. Let me do some technical stuff regarding the sound level and get back to you.

I've recorded my "version" of "The Song My Paddle Sings" and have sent it to you, Betsie via YouSendIt. My name in the catalog should read "Paul Jacobus".

I hope I did everything correctly.

P.S. I liked the poem!

Thanks,

Paul

Great! Thank you Paul... You sound really good with a nice clear voice. =)
I'm glad you like this poem... I especially like it too (i'm not much of a poetry fan, so that really says something about it =)
