I guess that's all well and good so long as you're not feline.... ;-)

The tunes are rather incomplete in the sense that there were plans to add solos here, other backings there, etc. But I had two kids dominating my personal scene most of the 1990s, along with the need to recover from that on a regular basis in, well, "traditional, liquid ways"... plenty to keep up with at work... the relationship with the wife at the time deteriorating at greater than half-life speeds....

And then something funny happened: I wound up rather enjoying their incompleteness, as though far more a feature than missing function.

Of course, that didn't stop me from feeling I had to perpetually apologize for how I couldn't other than imagine others considering them incomplete.

(NOTE: The word 'perpetually' is vast overkill given I threw them together at a website that I never promoted - let alone monetized... (gawd, how I despise that word....))

Nage, dydw i ddim cath :)

However, the lawyerish part of my mind now wonders, if pure self-promotion isn't allowed, how about impure self-promotion? 😆

In re musicae: perceived incompleteness can be a feature... it reminds me of the collection A Few Old Tunes by Boards of Canada that got leaked years ago; they're already perfect in my ears...
