Hi All,

Here's a silly little song that you might hear coming out of a garage in 1966… LOL!

This is called HiFi-LoFi.

Forty-five RPM is the only speed
Never too much of what I need
I can get used to anything
You fade away as you sing

HiFi LowFi baby you are spinning me out
HiFi LowFi baby you are spinning me out
HiFi LowFi baby you are spinning me out

Sleeves rolled up and ready for a fight
Listen to the words so outta outta sight
Stuck in a spiral so turn up the sound
Play it one more time round and round

HiFi LowFi baby you are spinning me out
HiFi LowFi baby you are spinning me out
HiFi LowFi baby you are spinning me out

Great sound - infectious in fact. Enjoyed the 60's feel and a bit of Dylan in the delivery.
Good stuff.

Peter

Very cool tune. Loved you brought up the sound of the garage bands. I remember when we started up when we were kids there would be kids from all over the neighborhood coming to listen. Parents scowling of course. Loved this tune. Infectious is right on the money.

Hi Bob,

Love that 60s garage band sound! And yeah, we had Hi-Fi back then - before stereo. perfect backing tracks. Nice!

Alan

Peter,

Thanks very much.

Bob

Man this is really cool.

How did you get that REM style guitar lick at the intro and throughout? Is that you playing, or is that a Real Track?

It sounds great!

David,

Thanks. I generated several tracks from 629: Guitar, Electric, Rhythm PopAmerican Ev 120. I then pulled out this particular lick and overlaid it on the rhythm track throughout the song.

Bob

Hmmmm. Cool technique!

Bob,
Really nice retro sound. Your vocal carries the energy and that`s some wizardry applied to the baritone guitar!
Very cool song.

Robert

Well done, Bob. A cool sound.

But... I think it's more Seattle Grunge (mid-80's?) that '66 garage band...

Nice mix. Good job "finding the lick"...

fj

Scott,

Very appreciated - thanks.

Bob

Alan,

Thanks so much!

Bob

I really enjoyed your use of the Guitar RealTracks here. The song sounds pretty wicked. Thanks for sharing.

It actually sounds more like a 70’s Ian Hunter and Mott The Hoople style song than a 60’s rocker, to my ears, and I loved it. Great groove.

Dave

Robert,

Thanks as always!

Bob

Floyd,

I see that as well...

Thanks so much.

Bob

Right on - this tune is a thumper! I can't help but imagine how great this would sound live. The use of those guitars was perfect. Not to mention, that chorus is the perfect level of catchy for my taste.

Really well done - thanks for sharing

Great work comping up that rhythm lick.

I think the comparisons to other styles are somewhat all over the map which indicates to us that you've come up with something unique. It's a compliment in our book to cause reactions like that.

And it's a lot more than a silly little song. The lyric and vocal performance are both most cool. For example "45rpm is the only speed"...neat way to identify an era and present a great line.

We'll call it a "nifty little song" deserving of multiple listens!

Nice.

Ember,

Much appreciated - thank you.

Bob

Dave,

Thanks so much - appreciate the listen and feedback.

Bob

Deryk,

Thanks - glad you liked this.

Bob

Janice & Bud,

That is very appreciated - thanks.

Bob

well done good rocky style

Hifi lofi baby you are spinning me out! You are too cool for school Bob. Somehow I can picture that garage. I love it when you get your rock groove on. This is so fun and it sounds great!

Bob Dylan jams at Joe's Garage! Man what great lyrics and vibe you have going on here.

I think this is your best to date.

beatmaster,

Much appreciated - thanks.

Bob

Hey Josie,

LOL! Thanks so much!

Bob

Mario,

You are too kind - thanks!

Bob

Hello, Bob

Yes, you brought up so well the sound of the garage bands in 60's.
Catch melody and nice vocal!
As David says, REM style guitar lick at the intro and throughout is very cool.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Shigeki,
