Our band (Hoi Polloi)'s first recordings

HERE you go. If it doesn't take you straight to the songs, click BandPage down the left. We'd appreciate it if you could give us a like too, if you're on Facebook. We're almost at 100

They're just live recordings done inside rehearsal studios, but we're happy enough with the results. Neither brilliant sound nor performance quality, but we've only been playing for a few months, had no experience at all of recording, and had 7 of our own songs down.

Part of the first tune is unashamedly a rip off of this:

Just litened to the first one only. Quite like the vocal melody (before the ooo wooo aahh aahh bit) there. Sounds a bit 70s to me. Good job.

The warbly bit was just the vocalist messing about for the sake of it. I never gave it much thought.

Boad, any chance of having this not on facebook?

I've got them up on Soundcloud so I'll sort out the link when I've got time.

Does the Facebook link not work unless you have an account?
