Hello all,
I copied this from cassette to MP3 using my friend, PTPA and got a pretty decent sound out of it, using the EQ and Comp.

The drums is a little toy casio that my step daughter had at the time.
The Bass I'm playing is a Fender Precision.
And the Guitar is an Ovation Solid Body 12 String Electric. Preacher Deluxe. I still have it.

Give it a listen if you want to hear the HIGHEST my voice ever sounded.
I hope you enjoy it. Just not my usual sound.

It's called, "Everybody Here"

Here's the link, http://www.soundclick.com/bands/page_songInfo.cfm?bandID=835626&songID=10869921

The lyrics ar there and so is the info on the song.

Thanks you, Wayne,

I enjoyed that and can think of nothing more to say other than I replayed it a few times and so am now singing my version. Enjoyed it tremendously.
Amazing what someone can do with a C90 and a Casio. And yep that voice is high *adjusts own pants to a more comfortable position*

Thank you, What I most enjoyed besides finding it after all these years was the hearing actual recording.
Besides the casio, I forgot how wonderful a REAL Bass sounds. I guess playing guitar, I put more melody into it. I used a Bass that I was repairing for someone. I never owned one, so I figured I might as well use it. lol

This song is almost as new to me as it is to you.

Thanks for taking the time and thank you for your kind words. All I remember is I was on a living room floor somewhere when I recorded this.

And yes, I couldn't believe my voice. whoa...
Wayne,

RG, just visited your music page. Great stuff there. This song here is something else considering what you had to work with. It and you sound real good for something that old. Makes me wonder about all the new tech we're spoiled with now. I used tape forever. Till there was no more tape.
Yes the voice is high in this song, but real good. Lots of feeling. I liked it. You have a lot of different stuff. A man of many styles? What do you like playing the best?

Thanks a lot Reds or RWB?,
Thank you for taking the time to listen. I'm glad you liked it. It's an oldy.
I play a lot of acoustic, but I've always been into the Blues.
From your name I guess you are too?
I'd have to say I'm a Blues Player. All Fender Guitars. And yes, they're both Red.
Good to meet you. You've been on here for 10 years and no posts. What happenned?
Whatever, glad you're back.
Thanks again, Wayne,

Thanks, everybody,
It's one of those songs you write and later when you read the lyrics you say, "Who wrote this". I do love one line and I always have, "A lot of people pay for my mistakes"
I remember thinking no matter how we think we're just hurting ourselves, we're hurting those around us.

I do not remember singing like that. But I know that's me and I didn't play with the pitch.
When I upgrade the end of the year I'll have all the realtracks and I'll be rerecording some of my stuff. But you won't hear me sing in that key. In fact most of my songs I've dropped the key.

Thanks for all of you've taking the time to listen and your thoughts. I really appreciate it.
I know it had no BIAB, but I'm always amazed at what a great job PTPA can do in tranferring these old cassette songs to MP3. The tape doesn't sound at all this good.

Hi Martin,
Thanks, I can relate to the lyrics too, even now over 30 years later. I find it hard to believe I wrote them. But that happens to me a lot. after I write something, I come back and think, where did that come from.
Thank you again, it really means a lot.
Wayne,

There are new “smooth jazz” styles (4), which include a RealTracks first: muted trumpet, as well as slick new smooth jazz brushes options for drums. Blues lovers will be thrilled—there are more “classic acoustic blues” styles, including guitar (5), bass (4), and drums (10) with blues master Colin Linden, featuring understated and tasty background acoustic soloing, plus brushes drums and acoustic bass. There are also new electric blues RealTracks, including electric blues with PG favorite Johnny Hiland (3) and soulful electric slide guitar from Colin Linden (4).

And for big, bold arrangements, we have uptempo soul horns (4) featuring a three-part hip horn section with options for a full mix or stems of each individual horn — plus an accompanying rhythm section (4) of drums, bass, guitar, and electric piano!

Rock & Pop (Sets 476–482):
Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.

Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.

Check out all the 202 new RealTracks (in sets 468-488)!

And, if you are looking for more, the 2026 49-PAK (for $49) includes an impressive collection of 20 bonus RealTracks, featuring exciting and inspiring additions to add to your RealTracks library.
