Yeah! This is great, love the groove. Also really like your vocal, great tone and feel. oohs/aahs work really well on this track, so far I haven't had much luck with the myself. So, 40 years .... hopefully we won't have to wait another 40 years for your next one  Good song, enjoyed.

So, 40 years .... hopefully we won't have to wait another 40 years for your next one Good song, enjoyed. Thanks:) It does take some editing/automation to get those Oohs and Aahs to sound smooth and to blend. I created at least one different BiaB Song in which I took out a number of chords which made a big difference. The generated Oohs/Aahs were more consistent with less transients. In the mix I used several fades to tame them also.

Very nice. I really enjoyed this. The band sounds great, wonderful vocals!
Nice job getting the oooh's & ahhh's to work that well. I have been unable to make that happen... Yet!
I agree with the James Taylor references, but also hear a good deal of Buffet in there.
Well done!
Greg

I'm glad you finished this - it's a cool little thing.
RT oohs n ahhs can be challenging to mix. I find they need a lot of reverb and, occasionally, some tuning.
I enjoyed the song and the chorus is really nice.
Cheers

Greg Thank you for all of that, Greg! I guess we're never far from the music we grew up listening to. I'm glad you finished this - it's a cool little thing.
