I had sketched this out a few months back - thought I'd see how far I could take it in one day - this is as far as I got. I'll have to come back and give the BIAB tracks. I did the guitar and vocals , used a TC-HELICON Harmony GTX for the Levin Seven parts. Country Real Styles TRAINP.STY

LEVIN SEVEN

I'm robot Levin Seven, manufactured up in heaven
To find a missing angel down below
I see in your eyes , those smiles that hypnotize
Your the one I was sent here for

LEVEN SEVEN - will always be your friend
LEVEN SEVEN - will love you to the end
Now I know in my core what arms and lips are for
Ever since I interfaced with you
LEVEN SEVEN - LEVEN SEVEN

I'm reporting to H.Q. that I've made contact with you
My prime directive finally has come true
Our electrical connection is a heavenly confection
Warming up my circuits through and through

repeat chorus

instrumental break

repeat chorus and tag ending

A bit of fun Pete

What an interesting theme. Love the TRAINP style. Reminds me of Casey Jones

Great stuff.

Fun idea! The guitar tone, beat, and BG vocals gave it a bit of a retro, theme from "Rawhide" vibe, which was a really interesting juxtaposition with the futuristic concept. Enjoyed it! Take care. Greg

I think I played bit of a rawhide riff in the lead-in. I was trying to get a Jerry Reed kind of guitar on it. If you remember he did all kinds of crazy songs. "Gitarzan" comes to mind. I had thought of doing it disco with synths - but liked straight country better. Well maybe Brad Paisley could record it - he likes off-beat songs.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Hi Pete,

Yep, you made me smile too. I don't think I've ever heard a song based on an android/robot angel hunter. That's got to be unique!

All the best,
Noel

A fun listen, Pete. Greg said just what I thought as I listened! (he often does that).

Thank you, Charlie,David,Dan,Janice& Bud,Noel,Tom,Rob and Gruverider, I am just overwhelmed with appreciation of your wonderful messages. And if Frankie Laine was still around maybe he could record it and it would 'really' sound like Rawhide. Some one at JPF suggested it could be the theme song for a sitcom which would make me happy and richer - even a cartoon sitcom would be fine. The one thing that no one has suggested, and maybe I shouldn't but I guess I will, is maybe he's not a robot at all and it's just a pick-up line. NO!, no forget I said that. ---Pete
