Say Goodbye

https://soundcloud.com/peterf1957/say-goodbye

An old one with updated real tracks some time ago - didn't keep the original file so not sure which style.
Real Tracks - Bass, Drums, Acoustic Guitar, Mandolin and Dobro.

I play 2nd dobro and slide weaving about the 1st dobro.
Leon vocals and lyrics.

Quite a few Sydney landmarks in this one written when he left Sydney to live in Canberra.

Peter and Leon,

Wow that is a great foot-tapping tune.
Nice playing by yourself, Peter.
great vocals as usual.
It seemed so short even though it was nearly 3 minutes so it needs many listens smile

perfect for a really windy day here in blighty.

enjoyed a lot

Very cool tune!! Your vocal fits this one so naturally. The song just flows and carries the listener along so nicely. Everything works like a charm. Was that an Orbison line placed in there? Nicely done in every way!! Take care. Greg

One of your best I think. Everything fits together nicely along with the vocals which are just right for the lyrics and melody. Good job.

Peter and Leon,

Solid. The production, arrangement and mix are nice in all regards.

Nice vocal.

The song really goes by fast. No better compliment than that...

(would have liked to see a lyric on this one). Good write.

Your best so far, I think...

Thanks Alyn.
Always thought it sort of conjures up a warm Sydney evening (like tonight).

Man, that is a fine tune! Incredibly organic in the
way it just flows with the great vocal, lyric and dobro(s).

This made an immediate trip to our SC playlist.

BTW, as a long time bluegrass player I've had
the chance to sit in with some talented
dobro players working together. You nailed it.

Enjoyed it!
