Dealing with some health problems, so I can't comment much, but there has been some great stuff here lately. Here's an oldie. https://soundcloud.com/90-db/rocky-mountain-lullabyeRocky Mountain Lullabye ©2001 Robert Randall Burke She left her home up in Baltimore And hit out on the road A minibus and a Coleman stove And an old radio. There was a light in the Western sky Drawin' her like a firefly And a Rocky Mountain Lullabye That she wanted to hear. She stopped in a Mesa town At the edge of the sea Where she could watch the sun go down Where she could be free. There was a light in the Western sky Drawin' her like a firefly And a Rocky Mountain Lullabye That she wanted to hear. File:Rocky Mountain Lullabye.SGU Key=C , Tempo 110, Length (m:s)=2:50 No intro. 74 bar chorus, from bar 1 to bar 74. Repeat x1 chorus No Melody No Soloist track.

What a cool song. Had a hint of Jimmy Buffet in the intro. Super vocal and backtrack

What a lovely, relaxing tune, 90 dB! Loving the summer vibes in this one I like how the lyrics tell a story too - thanks so much for sharing!
Cheers, Deryk

Really excellent Bob, right up to scratch, as usual.
I really have to say I loved the choice of using Pedal Steel
The Style is perfect for the song, and the lead break fills every thing out perfectly.
Stay healthy!
Nice.

I saw the Rocky Mountains for the first time when I flew home a few months back to visit my folks. It was a beautiful sight! This song reminded me of my travels. I rather enjoyed this mellow, sweet tune. Thank you for sharing!
Cheers, Ember

From the start, I was thinking Marty Robbins.
Good old school country. Nothing like a "crying" steel to take you back.
The steel solo was OK. nice level bump to put it up front, but... it didn't resolve effectively. Could have been a bit better. Still nice, but .... you know.
Nice job.

You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

"There was a light in the Western sky Drawin' her like a firefly And a Rocky Mountain Lullabye That she wanted to hear."
As always, your writing is as "tight as it comes". I could have quoted the whole thing as an example. Never a word out of place. A lesser writer would take 10 times the space to say the same thing. Truly incredible writing. With such a "comfortable" singable melody - yet another skill on display.
I assume that is you playing the opening acoustic... super! Great sound, excellent recording - great acoustic sound, perfectly played.
The backing carries this perfectly. Enjoyed hearing a steel solo. Kenney Chesney could include this on any of his current records...
Keep it up, Mr. Burke.

Nice. Trevor, The pedal steel solo actually has two steel tracks playing off each other. That might not be as obvious on some systems. Thanks for the listen and kind comments. Regards, Bob

Bob.....
I just gave a listen. Good folk ballad and I liked your vocal and your delivery works very well.
Lyrically....these lines stand out to me: "There was a light in the Western sky Drawin' her like a firefly"
Well done....

Very nice work, Bob. Lyrics, vocals, and some wonderfully fat steel. Keep 'em coming.
