Aleck,
you are clearly a very talented guy! Super job on this song... if you had sung the original lyrics I would have been hard pressed to believe it was a reproduction and not the original!

I've been sequencing horns in some of the classic R&B tunes recently, and I agree with Steve that you did an great job with the horn section in this tune!

Two questions:
1) what synth did you use for the horns?
2) what is the name on the headstock of the guitar in your forum avatar?
