Blues All Over You

All night drinkin’ actin’ the fool,
Gamblin’ my money till there’s nothin’ left to lose.
Wake up in the front yard, stankin’ like sin,
sleep all day, get up and do it again.

Oh the things you’ll do, when you get the blues all over you.

Go out chasin’ womans, and makin’ my play,
Don’t wanta catch em, it’s just the thrill of the chase.
Don’t want no woman that wants to get caught,
Done got one at home that I can’t run off.

Oh the things you’ll do, when you get the blues all over you.

Come home late, wife ask, where I been,
what kinda’ mischief you been getting’ yo-self in?
No time to think ‘bout what to say,
said I was abducted by the CIA, and she agreed,

That I had the blues all over me
Oh the things you’ll do, when you get the blues all over you.
( Solos )

Gonna wake up in the mornin’ $hit, shower, and shave,
Haul A$$ off to work, and I won’t be late.
Gonna clean up my livin’, gonna’ try to be good,
Go to church on Sunday, just like I should.

Oh the things you’ll do, when you get the blues all over you.
It’s plain to see, That I’ve got the blues all over me.

Super listening. I was really drawn in by all the rhythmic interactions going on. (Safari, play that again!)

Really great blues!

Thanks y'all


Me too Floyd... Thanks.

Thank you Peter


Thanks for that David.


How 'bout that band? My first takes are always sloppy, but on a tune like this, I didn't want to second guess myself... Thanks for the feedback.

I love the blues and this song ought to be with Alligator Records.

Super groove

Outstanding chops

Excellent vocal

This one has everything

Your best to date IMHO

Loved it

Thanks for listening Mario, and thank you for those friendly words...

Great blues song, bloc-head, lyrics and vocals, and especially the the whole band and how you mixed them in so perfectly. I got the blues all over me, under me and through.

We got some blues going round the forum..... Good one.

I enjoyed the story line.... sounds familiar.

A really good job all the way around from the writing of the lyrics to the instruments to the mix.

I believe most everyone has, at least some Blues on 'em.
Thanks for the great feedback Marty.

Thank you for listening, and for the comments.

REALLY cool.
The 1st Oh "the things you’ll do" seemed a bit rushed & collided internally but the subsequent ones were smooth.
I'm not a fan of the kick drum - but I seem to have a problem with BIAB kick tracking generally.

Had a listen to this the other day but didn't have time to comment.

Just a top notch blues track, love the guitar groove especially.

Enjoyed!

A really neat song, great lyrics, the percussion drives this really well.

The harmonica spells 'blues' throughout, and the breaks fit so well.

Great job, no question.

Yeah, my timing was a bit sloppy here & there. Thanks for the ears & words Ray...


Your comments are much appreciated Dave.


Thank you Trevor, and thanks again for the help on the pre-release Testing Forum...

bloc-head

You have got to be one of the most creative people on this forum! I am always blown away by the incredible work you post every time! Anyone who says a musician can't produce a professional sounding work with BIAB, needs to listen to your work!

A fan!

Thanks, Torrey

Your words are very gratifying… thank you so much. I’m in awe of your talent. Huge fan here.

Another smash hit, I love this song, amazing what you can do with BIAB!!

What a cool intro. Really setup diving into the tune. Really cool backtrack. Kick drum really set the groove. Super vocal and lyric. Well done. Harp was cool as well.

Thanks Ronnie, and yes, BiaB is an amazing tool.


Thanks for the great feedback Scott.
