Man, am i happy to have stumbled upon this track! i don't know if it's kinda late to review haha, but amazing job! Beautiful vocals and brilliant guitar playing. Some of the best music i've heard on here
Hey meestege. I know I already reviewed this track, but I was just doing some iTunes inventory and came upon it again and wanted to say thanks again for sharing this awesome track.
I cant beleive that there are no reviews on this bluesy downhome and to earth blues number!! The only thing to say is the lyrics were GREAT and Instrumental Playing is TOP NOTCH and the overproduction is simply outstanding! FAVED! Downloaded!!
Thank you very much Filaofsoul. I consider this song the best one I ever done. Everything seems to be in the right place. And Joseph is very good. Maybe I have to be patient for more reviews. Gerard
Simple yet very effective idea. The slide on the resonator puts the mood of the music straight into blues land, and the solitary footsteps takes your idea further. Why not add a guy talking instead of a vocal. like thoughts in his head while he's walking based on your idea of being alone in this crowded city
Daniel, Thank you for all nice reviews you have send. It's really an honor for a guitarplayer to get these reviews from a guitarteacher. I can't read music, most of the time I improvise the lead parts. I started as a basplayer. I think that's good because I had to learn about scales. And now I see them as patterns on the neck of my Strat. And I was lucky I met some good (jazz) musicians who taught me a lot. No we don't have a CD yet. That depends on how fast we write and produce more songs. I hope at the end of this year we will have a CD. Then I send one copy to you I promise. But I can sent you a wav of this song in high quality. Gerard
I simply love this track. Barry was right about your blues guitar playing. Your interpretation to the music for me, just hits it on the nail. the timing. the sudden bendy blues riff that comes in. Its downloaded. Its fav'd.
I really like this one. Its very crisp and infectious (sounds bad, but I mean its good)..the guitars come across nicely..as does thoe whole song. great.!
Rei, Thanks Rei, related to music that is the only positive thing about losing the onces you love. It can give you so much emotion and inspiration in music. But I would gladly give that back in return for all my friends and family I lost. Gerard
Thanks FaithinSound It's really the first time we did this. It was hard to play because that rhythm is not in my system. If you hear the other songs, you know what I mean. I'm glad you like it. Gerard
I'd add a suggestion/criticism if I could but I have nothing so I'll leave it at that, I just saw no one reviewed this yet and wanted to show support for the track, good stuff.
Hi Gerard, Hadn't listened to this tune before. The voice experiment came out very well I thought...giving that deep voice. The rest of the song was pretty good as well overall I thought.
Would like to get a copy of your CD someday as well. Thanks for steering me here. Randy
Hi Meestege, Nice sounding Blues tune here. A lot different than mine which are mostly slide guitar and slower. Sounds like you should drink a few beers before making ANY new song....as it loosens you up and your inhibitions fly away.
I am afaid I am not doing too well at colabs because of working so much. I should have had the Dobro part done months ago for the 'I'm too fat' song. Anyways, this was a very good blues song and I liked it a lot. Thanks for sharing, Randy
Randy, The problem is I want to make music everyday. I will end like a alcoholic if I did that. But it is true just a bit alcohol gives more inspiration. But when I was playing in bands I saw some musicians went too far. Take your time Im also very busy with the job. a
Hi there Meestege, Just getting around to catch up on some reviews. Looks like this one and the other one done is June are your latest two. I like this song here. Drums are good and steady, guitar sounds good thru the Line 6. You know I have a rack mount Line 6 and have hardly ever used it. Such a shame as they sound so good, but I get any sound/ tone via software these days.
Hi Randy, Thanks. I think the overall idea is good but I'm not satisfied with the sounds and the mix. I tried to improve this but no results yet. Well the Line 6 can produce very good sounds and you alter all sounds the way you like. I'm very satisfied with hard- and software. Gerard
I love this song.... It's witty and honest, this is also reflected in the stripped back instruments (what more was needed? nothing! It's perfect). Great lyrics and playing all round...
Thank you Slap What started as a joke seems to be our biggest hit on Looperman. This was just done in one evening. With other songs we spent a lot of time on the sound and the mix. Sometimes the best way is to keep it easy.
