Thanks for listening Scott709. Yes, it seems the lyrics seem to be the high point of this composition.

Guenter, thanks for commenting. The forum consensus is lyrically, this song is worth rebuilding and I had actually started some work on a sgu file after Pat Marr's suggestion and Herb's evaluation in early replies.

I'm going back to another listen. This is definitely a composition to be proud of.

All the best,
Noel


Thanks Noel. Yes, Herb seems to be right on the mark on this one for sure. He knows classic country as good as anyone I think.

Booze seems to be a step up from my last offering with the sniffles. ;=)

Nice that you are working to enhance the original. A couple of the licks stop a little abruptly, but there are several that work well...

Listened a few times and it really gets into your head in a hurry...

Thanks Floyd. Reviving some of these old songs really showcases why I am so fortunate to have found BiaB to help me out. My friend Austin is responsible for most of the lyrics on this and he can write from the heart because his heart has been there and done that. At the time, we both thought the Yamaha workstation and a harmonizer was the solution for a demo backing band......

Good ideas above to mix from scratch, it would allow the timing to be a bit tighter.

Great lyric and concept. Really enjoyed the listen. Thanks for sharing

I agree Trevor and it's back to scratch for this one for sure. Thanks for taking time to listen and comment. Much appreciated.

I would love to hear an updated version. I have been listening to and playing this style most of my life and this is a good song. Tom


Thanks for listening and commenting Tommy. It seems to be the consensus of the forum a rebuild on this would be an appreciated update. Looking into it now.

Rob and Anne-Marie, thanks for listening and taking time to comment. I knew the track had flaws but my thought the discussion would be more about adding Real tracks. The song garnered more notice than I thought it would. I have received some great suggestions and helpful offers to get this song on the right track. Hopefully, a better quality update can be posted soon.

Good country song.

I agree with tommyad on the guitar licks, though - they don't seem aligned with the original song at all.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

We're late to the party but are in agreement
that it is a good song and worthy of creating
from scratch via RT's.
