First Song for 2017

Title for this song came from an online buy-sell site I frequent regularly. Was looking at the guitar and got chuckle out of the ad. He described his guitar as almost new. Thought the wording was cute.. Not used but almost new... :-)

Almost New

Here are the particulars:
Style is CLOUDS.STY (Clouds - Slow ev.8 Pop)

RealTracks in song: 366:Bass, Electric, Country Ev 065

RealTracks in song: ~~689:Organ, B3, Background Pop Ev 085
RealTracks in song: ~2265:Synth, BellPad, Rhythm 80sPopMelodic Ev 085
MIDI Drums :1 Standard Drum Kit (1)

RealDrums will be substituted :JazzEven16: a: Snare, HiHat b: Snare, Kick

Two guitars:

Nice, Scott.

The slide is a terrific addition. The mix is nice - has a real "live" sound to it.

Scott,

Very sweet playing! To these ears this is one of your best - the two guitars sound lovely together.
Going to give Reaper mixing a try too - hope its not too painful to learn?

Thanks Peter, first attempt at adding a slide track. A few months back Tom A played a pedal steel on one of his tracks as the sound sort of stuck with me.
