Hi all. When writing this song I was imagining the US civil war era. No real story. Just what I imagined things to be. All comments welcome. Rob. Picking Black Eyed Peas Picking Black Eyed Peas I went pea picking. Picking black eyed peas. I went pea picking. Picking on my knees. Picked them by the bushel picked by the pale.

Rob, Great editing on the solos. The bluegrass real tracks are some of the best. Nice vocals. Unlike Alyn I'm praying for rain so I don't have to cut the grass! Tom

Another great job Rob. Harmonies are really tight. The bluegrass style is perfect. My only suggestion is that perhaps the vocals are a little too out in front.

I agree with Trevor on each of those points... Would you like our recipe for Possum Stew?  floyd

Hi Rob, Another good, entertaining listen! It's very impressive how quickly you produce songs. You certainly seem to have the hang of Sonar now. All the best, Noel

Hello Rob,
We think this is one of your best so far. A very good choice of real tracks, the same goes for the editing of the soloists. This bluegrass style really grows on you.

Well, you've hit on something I've actually done. I've had Black Eye Peas, butter beans, snap beans, field peas, okra, cucumbers, potatoes and more from our gardens in the past. Now, get them from the farmers market. Too much work and no longer cost effective.
Don't do the possum meat, but Rabbit, squirrel, Raccoon and Deer have all graced the table at some point in time.
Fun listen. Everything came together quite well.
Charlie
