Please forgive me for posting this so soon after my previous post. But I saw over in the Shout Box that this is National Funk Day. So, I wanted to get this one in. I'm leaving town for the rest of the day and didn't want to miss this opportunity. Again apologies.

Will post the BIAB tracks when I get back this evening. Thanks!

Very Funky Alan and Di.

This has certainly captured an excellent feel, smooth, real smooth.

Going back for another listen.

Well Alan you know that we're in the same page here. Very nice piece here. As a matter of fact I should have included the muted wa wa guitar in my last one, very much used in the 70's.
In fact I might still do that. Liked it a lot.

Great work here! You captured a perfectly relaxing vibe here - it was easy to just listen and dry away. I wouldn't change a thing! Nothing like some good old fashion calming funk music smile

Thanks so much for sharing!


Cheers,

Sounds great Alan! You are in a musical frame of mind 24/7! I was imagining all sorts of musical fills and melody all the way through! Thanks, Torrey

Hi Torrey.

Yeah, I, too, had a few ideas for some fill but they wanted a musical bed with little to no melody, so that's what I gave them. I'll probably leave it as is for a while. Maybe another submission opportunity will cime my way. Glad you liked it! And, indeed, I have music on my mind 24/7! I've written or co-written over 800 songs and still have dozens of ideas. Thanks for the listen - much appreciated!

Alan
