When She Slipped Her Dancing Shoes On

I constructed the song in BIAB and finished the tracks in Cakewalk Sonar before they became BandLab. I wrote this song in 2012 as part of a CD I was recording for the 2016 National Square Dance convention in Des Moines, IA. I performed it at the style show that was part of the convention.

The style I used for this song was _SWCWALZ.STY. I used the following RealTracks:
Bass=1121 Piano=2117 Drums=CountryWaltz Guitar 1=824 Guitar 2=980 Pedal Steel=1127 Fiddle=1125

This one almost got past me but I am sure glad I found it. This is outstanding. Super waltz groove with a fantastic vocal! Excellent choice in instrumentation and one outstanding mix. The lyrics are also fantastic.

Two thumbs up!

Waltzes are always welcome!

Fun song - a "classic" write, and nice payoff for "heavenly world" on the final verse.

I enjoyed listening!

Very nice Barry!! I always like these traditional type Irish folk song, and you put a good one together! Enjoyed!! Take care. Greg

Barry,

I’m glad I stumbled on this one. What a terrific write and a great, classic country hook to go with. Really like the fiddle and pedal steel in this production; gives it a real authentic old time feel. The vocal is really good, but one nit production-wise is that I'm not sure it sits ideally in the mix--see what others think. To me, it seems like you are in a different room or maybe too far from the mic when you recorded it—just seems to lack a little body to me. Just something to think about. But it didn’t take away at all from the enjoyable listen. Really sweet tune!

All my best,

Deej
