Thanks James! As I have now explained in an update to my post, this tune is meant to honor the musical geniuses Donald Fagen and the late Walter Becker! I could only hope to create something that was similar to what those great artists did! Thanks so much for the listen and kind words! T

Man, the harmony is definitely Steely Dan. Outstanding in so many ways, Torrey. That bass is especially cool. I got to spend a week with Chuck Rainey back in 2002. Amazing. He woulda loved this, too.


Enjoy whatever happens!

I was chatting to someone about this band today: they were big amongst my teachers college peers in the late 70s.
You ran their vibes with a little more oomph and that worked a treat.
As expected the musicianship is top notch.


Thanks Ray! I also noticed the prominent hihat in the chorus parts but since it was wrapped up in a loop with the other drums I was limited in what I could do. I have since went back and rolled off some of the highs during those parts to help a bit. T

I'm late to this party but extremely glad that I came. Everything already has been said but I will add that this is a perfect in your pocket groove. Your mix is outstanding and so is your guitar. Sweet sound on the axe man.


My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not.

Torrey,

Always love hearing your stuff . . . and this one is no exception. Musically, a compelling, smoking tribute to Steely Dan—you’re at the top of your game on this production. For a 15 minute throw together, the lyrics work just fine to me—if you didn’t mention it, no one would have noticed!
Really slick!

With humble regards,

Deej

Hey Torrey, another great song! I think it's all been said many times by others. So, my short version is, love the guitar, love the song! smile

What are you using for the Drums? Is that BIAB or some other tool?


Thanks Elliott for listening and commenting! The drums I used for this project were Drums On Demand. As I said to Floyd, I prefer the sound of BIAB'S RealDrums, but needed the "4 on the floor" sound this set offered for this song. T

Wow! We are too late to add an accolade that hasn't already been offered multiple times. Janice listened to a lot of Steely Dan and has gotten Bud to appreciate them (he was lost in bluegrass land when they were big).

You assuredly nailed their feel - both permutations of them. Their music for us has always been classy and sophisticated so even bigger kudos to you for capturing them with your great arrangement and playing...playing dang near all of it smile

And those harmonies!

This is a showcase on the showcase forum!

Thanks man for all the kind words! That must have been awesome meeting Chuck Rainey! Anyone who's worked not only with Steely Dan but Aretha and Quincy must have had some stories to tell! T
