If you watch the video could give it a thumbs up or down, please. Thank you in advance. Rob4580 Black dog blues **** Song Summary ********* Title: _BTGSHUF - Baritone Guitar Blues Shuffle File:Black dog blues.SGU Key=F# , Tempo 85, Length (m:s)=3:28 I'm in the middle of blacked-out abyss. I'm hiding in the dark I've been put on the list. I'm running and I'm hiding away. With rain coming it's a black dog kind of day. Caught in a vice, that won't release its grip. This poisoned wine only I can sip. I'm falling deeper, I cant make my way. With rain coming its a black dog kind of day. ................................................ I'm calling out to you oh please don't leave me alone. The skies started falling and the elements groan. It's my unique disposition on a black dog kind of day. Bridge I'm calling out to you oh please don't leave me alone. The skies started falling and the elements groan. Its my unique disposition on a black dog kind of day.

Your voice is clear, generally sib free and telling a good story with conviction. Simple and effective backing. Well done sir.

Nice work! -- David Cuny My virtual singer development blog Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing? BiaB 2025 \| Windows 11 \| Reaper \| Way too many VSTis.

The vocals with just the right amount of reverb, and that soaring solo guitar is stupendous. That very subtle harmonica is a great choice.
