Sort of a Zydeco version of "Walk of Life". smile

R & AM,

The accordion UserTracks has not been posted that I know of. Another forum member made it and Beating The Bushes was created to test the UserTracks.

PgFantastic,

Thanks for listening! I had a lot of fun creating this tune.

Charlie,

You might want to define soon. It was ONLY four months between my last song post and this ditty! eek

David,

Zydeco is fun music and this little ditty was fun.

Jim,

A good listen. Solid mix.

Nice use of a UserTrack. Sounds very well done - fits everywhere in the track as if it were played "live".

Oh... I really like your title, too!

You beat me to that! That was my first reaction.

Fun production you put together here Jim. We
enjoyed it and, man, I've got to check out those
user tracks.

Jim, Nice job for your second post. An enjoyable listen. I look forward to more. Tom

Greg Johnson, Glad you enjoyed listening as much as I enjoyed creating it.

Floyd, appreciate your listening and comments. The UserTracks will be a good one once finalized. I agree with you that it is an excellent accordion sound.

I was very surprised at how well the guitar tracks evolved. EVERYTHING, including the guitars, is driven by the midi only Tex2Step.STY. For the guitar I used two High-Q instrument guitar sounds (one nylon string and one electric) then ran the electric sound through an amp simulation insert. Changed the song feel and helped to make it come alive. Now that's fun!

Janice & Bud, Thank you. Sometimes everything just seems to all fall in place. This was one of those times. There are a lot of UserTracks to try. I think they are as inspiring as the RealTracks.

Tom, Thanks for listening. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
