Southern Pacific was one of those bands that had a string of hits and then disappeared. They we quite good. Composed of members of the Doobie Brothers.

Browsing through some of their videos, I came on this one where the singer sounds like our very own Floyd.... see if you agree: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KTDNXXL0sg



I agree Herb, the singer does have a Floyd Jane sound about him. It is Tim Goodman, an original SPB founding member. He left the band in 1986 after the album this cut was on was released. Good find on YouTube.

I'm glad you enjoyed my song that's based on the chord progression of an SPB tune.

We both much enjoyed this over the morning cup of joe.

Excellent!

Thanks for commenting Janice and Bud. In this case, using a professionally constructed chord chart played from RealTracks played by professional musicians in a professional studio did work remarkably well. One thing I found interesting in the melody is I can hear melodic lines that match the Eagles song, I can't tell you why and at the 3:02 mark, the acoustic guitar nearly plays the melody line exactly for the melody of Help Wanted, the tune the chord progression came from. That tells me it is useful to spend time in the Stylepicker auditioning and it's likely a very usable style can be found that will closely match a commercial song I'm trying to cover. Thanks for listening.

BIAB is a wonderful product provided by such a wonderful company as PGMusic.

Hi Greg, thanks for stopping by and listening. This project really developed without any thought I would post it. I had a specific chord pattern and was trying different styles and exporting certain instruments as performance track and was not keeping any type of record. I can't help with identifying that particular instrument. The final sounding track came out sounding better than what I thought would occur by mixing performance tracks from such diverse styles like the ones I auditioned.

Hi Trevor. I could not agree more. This really turned out better than I imagined. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
