Hope I didn't get carried away on this one. I was looking for a BIG sound from my realtracks. Classic love story gone bad.

Someone may enjoy...

Rick,

Shades of Steely Dan, and that is a good thing.

Very enjoyable listen.

PS: Are you playing any of the instruments or is this all realtracks?

Later,

I enjoyed this a lot Rick. It oozes with soul. I like the R&B rock arrangement. Reminded me more of Philly soul era groups than Steely and that too is a compliment.

Thanks, I built the song around 'PraiseWorshipUpTempo 16'
Blues and Gospel seem very close and I thought that beat was cool. As far as the drumset goes its just the stock realtrack that I tweaked up in Cubase with vst's and eq.
