    Default Les is More

    Well.. I know it is more of a cartoon than a painting.. still.. it made for a good enough scratchpad subject for me and my hackery..

    All of us who like to record owe an incredible debt to Les.. I think about him everytime I turn on my computer and press 'record'.

    W O W! Super beautiful! And indeed you are so right, we owe a lot to Les. This guy has brought the whole recording process to another level!

    Nice one, Chas! The playing did remind me of Les. The vocals were nice too, although I wasn't reminded of Mary Ford much...........
