OP BabuMusic Veteran Joined: May 2019 Posts: 5,070 Dallas, PA, USA	Bumpkin Patch on YouTube Bumpkin Patch on Soundcloud A nod to 2 gifted members: Andrew Dee and K-Dub Ya. Andrew mentioned they were doing a song challenge with a story. Here's one from a year ago that wasn't (and maybe never would've been otherwise) posted. Suggested by the BiaB Style. A song about a girl who dumps the bully rich kid, and lives a great life with the poor kid. Style is _BUMPKIN.STY (Bumpkin Rock n' Roll Country) RealTracks in style: 4322:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm RockNRollCountryShuffle Sw 120 RealTracks in song: 3371:Banjo Guitar, Rhythm MommasPrayerAndy Sw 085 RealTracks in song: 4207:Autoharp, Rhythm OldTimeSwing Sw 130 RealTracks in song: 2721:Guitar, Nylon, Fingerpicking SwingBrent Sw 110 RealTracks in song: ~~372:Guitar, Acoustic, Strumming Hank Sw 120 RealTracks in song: 763:Clarinet, Soloist Older Swing Sw 140 RealTracks in song: ~1965:Clarinet, Soloist DixielandMedium Sw 110 EZDrummer. I played bass and sang. Bumpkin Patch Listen to the story of the bumpkin from the patch, and the boy who lost his girl to him that day. They were all in town for the county fair when the flirtin' he did catch. He swore that bumpkin clown was gonna pay. Well, the poor boy had a patch on his blue jean pocket the back. So the boyfriend said he'll call him bumpkin patch. The ferris wheel spun 'round and 'round, but Patch played midway games, He could ring that High Striker bell for fun. When the boyfriend brought his girl nearby, ol' Patch denied his claims, and he gave that girl the teddybear he won. Well, the boyfriend was enraged when he felt he was upstaged. But he swung and missed, and Patch was never phased. You know that girl was speechless. She didn't know what to say. Her ex-boyfriend held his bloody nose and he quickly ran away. That gal and Patch got married June. The whole town gathered round, and they partied till the cows came home for good. So they had 10 kids who all looked alike in their home outside of town. The ex is now in jail for stealing wood. They became the perfect match and knew their love would last. Oh, they named their place forever Bumpkin Patch. County fairs come into town and sometimes knock the fences down. And that's the story of the bumpkin patch.

I love the idea of the "10 kids who all looked alike", but I couldn't coped with the reality! Some favourite Waoist Adages: #1: Play on the Way. #13: Ask not for whom the flower blooms, it blooms for you. #58: Bring consciousness to it. #63: On the road to effortlessness, effort must be made. #92: Be Love Now, the rest will come on its own.

I can just picture Grandpa Babu sitting around the campfire, telling his children, grandchildren, dogs, and cats stories from "the old days" With a big smile on his face. That makes me smile, too. And the icing is a solo by an instrument I never would have expected, but it really, really works. Great idea! Enjoyed my listens.

They caught my attention straight away. 2 bars in and my foot was tapping - one of those songs where you know where it’s going, both lyrically and harmonically, and you enjoy the ride all the way home. There are some wonderful scenes in this video as well - you know how I like to study what AI produces: - The ever-changing patch and location - The clarinet player - who’d have thunk? - 10 kids all aged within an hour of each other as well as looking alike - man, that couple are ‘fertile’. - I think ‘stealing wood’ - given how he was dressed - is code for ‘embezzling funds from the government lumber contract’ We should get you to participate in our song challenges more often! I think K-Dub Ya and I would both say this is mission accomplished. Well done!

Super vocal and backing band; how did you get that clarinet to fit into this song - brilliant. As usual everything was perfect. This country bumpkin loved it. OK, a random thought; Why does toilet paper need a commercial? Who's not buying it? 64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware

You sound great in the low end. -- David Cuny My virtual singer development blog Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?
