Thanks for listening Scott709. Yes, it seems the lyrics seem to be the high point of this composition.

Guenter, thanks for commenting. The forum consensus is lyrically, this song is worth rebuilding and I had actually started some work on a sgu file after Pat Marr's suggestion and Herb's evaluation in early replies.

Hi Charlie,
This is a great song. I reckon Herb is on to something when he says to rebuild it rather than try to incorporate the original into the mix. It would be interesting to hear the two versions side by side and see which works better.
I'm going back to another listen. This is definitely a composition to be proud of.
All the best,
Noel Thanks Noel. Yes, Herb seems to be right on the mark on this one for sure. He knows classic country as good as anyone I think. Charlie

Enjoyed the lyrics and vocals. Boozy country. Cheers. Booze seems to be a step up from my last offering with the sniffles. ;=) Thanks for listening. Charlie

Liked your country voice to. A good listen!
Fred Old style country is my vocal comfort zone. Thanks for taking time to listen. Charlie

Charlie,
Boy, that really sounds like "how they used to write 'em". Classic.
Nice that you are working to enhance the original. A couple of the licks stop a little abruptly, but there are several that work well...
Listened a few times and it really gets into your head in a hurry...
floyd Thanks Floyd. Reviving some of these old songs really showcases why I am so fortunate to have found BiaB to help me out. My friend Austin is responsible for most of the lyrics on this and he can write from the heart because his heart has been there and done that. At the time, we both thought the Yamaha workstation and a harmonizer was the solution for a demo backing band...... Charlie

Nice toe-tappin' country
Good ideas above to mix from scratch, it would allow the timing to be a bit tighter.
Great lyric and concept. Really enjoyed the listen. Thanks for sharing
Trev
I agree Trevor and it's back to scratch for this one for sure. Thanks for taking time to listen and comment. Much appreciated. Charlie

Charlie, This is maybe your best vocal. You did an admirable job of playing the background instruments. The timing on the guitar fills is off a little and I also think it would be a good idea to take your vocal and lay it on top of newly constructed tracks. Or just sing it again. I would love to hear an updated version. I have been listening to and playing this style most of my life and this is a good song. Tom Thanks for listening and commenting Tommy. It seems to be the consensus of the forum a rebuild on this would be an appreciated update. Looking into it now. Charlie

Rob and Anne-Marie, thanks for listening and taking time to comment. I knew the track had flaws but my thought the discussion would be more about adding Real tracks. The song garnered more notice than I thought it would. I have received some great suggestions and helpful offers to get this song on the right track. Hopefully, a better quality update can be posted soon.

Good country song.
I agree with tommyad on the guitar licks, though - they don't seem aligned with the original song at all.

We're late to the party but are in agreement
that it is a good song and worthy of creating
from scratch via RT's.
