Bob Hello 1970!!!!! Ha ha ha !!! Man, you made my year! That is exactly what I was going for!! 1970! Yeah man!!! Take me back there Jesus please!! It's all I ask for! And, well maybe front row seats at Woodstock, but that's it, and well, maybe some time with Paul and John in Abbey Road, but that's it! And well, maybe I could write song with James and Carly but that's all! Is that too much to ask????

Wow, I love this!! Lyrics are somewhat cryptic but very thought-provoking. You did a mean JT on that axe! And I love the pad being a little loud-just works for this song. Great job with the vocal-heartfelt and natural. You're on a roll David!! Take care. Greg

Hi David,
It sounds to be more guitars in there than the ‘Gypsy Kings I really liked that.
I loved the chord structure, I would have liked your voice to have been slightly more prominent, there is a good message there in the lyrics, very Dylan like, as well as your singing style. This is what you do well, keep at it.

Another very nice one David!
I'm interested in the usertrack you created. Would you mind sharing it?

Thanks Paddy! Sure, before I release this on an album I need to get vocals out front more for sure on the bridge. All this mixing and mastering stuff is tricky man. It's a fine balance! Thanks for the comment!!

Hey guys, Thanks! Here is a link to my BIAB user folder. I did a special version of this user track just for you a few minutes ago so it would work right in all contexts. The "riff" you hear is D// G/D// A/D /// etc. if you use the straight chords you get straight, if you use "over D" you the riff. Also, there is a slight glitch at the end when the last notes are fading but it is not coming from my track, it is coming from somewhere else. I am sure you can find it and kill it if you use other instruments from this style as a whole. Let me know how it works for you. Have fun. See post below for drop box link. The one you want is DSNYDER_JT4. You should not need any Eq-ing on this track, it is compressed and normalized and clean as a whistle. Just a good old Taylor. ******* Ok, you guys check these out and tell me if this link works. You should be able to download to your computer without a drop box account. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/y4ujowwpqh5y42t/AABnCcRP8YYL6ydXzoebe2Nza?dl=0I am playing several styles of guitar, fingerpicking, including a Ramirez classical, in a soft accompaniment style meant to add flavor to tracks and not be the standout item, especially suited for adding some spice to ballads. They are the same styles I use on some of my own softer tunes. The JT style refers to James Taylor and I am playing some of the mutated type chords he is famous for which you can see in the chart. The charts basically move through all of the common chords you would use in a pop song, plus those James Taylor-ish chords. I hope this is useful. Let me know how it works for you guys. They seem to hold up well to transposition, though you would have to add some gain change and an EQing device like the IK Multimedia Classic EQ (acoustic guitar setting) but I use these VSTS on all acoustic RTs anyway. Well, just an experiment. Let me know. Here is the link again: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/y4ujowwpqh5y42t/AABnCcRP8YYL6ydXzoebe2Nza?dl=0

Alyn, Thank you! That was my intention!! As to the "how I do it" part:. My answer is that insanity is completely underrated as a gift. I am offering a special this month on insanity coaching if anyone is interested.

"I heard a song about fire and rain
Don’t think I’ve ever been the same"
As Kris Kristofferson once said.. "You've been reading my mail..."
Those two lines could be an epigraph to my life - and so many others, I imagine.
Good job of capturing the sound.
As always, your vocals have "a lot of life".
(Though, here, they need to be brought up some to "ride the mix").
Another good'un, David...

Very cool song, David. Like Floyd said, bring up your voice. The backing track has tons of energy. Very catchy--I bet I will be hearing it in my head for the next day or so.

Hello, David
The electric guitar sounds remind me The Byrds "Mr. Tambourine Man" and "Turn! Turn! Turn!".
This song makes me feel 60s and 70s Folk Rock flavor a little bit.
Very enjoyable listen.
Best Regards.
Shigeki Adachi
