A barebones R&B-Soul instrumental. It's a musical bed written for a local group of wives who meet for a dance workout session one day a week. They asked me if I could write some original music for them - they were getting tired of the same 12 or 15 songs. This is my first offering. The music is a simple bed, thus the name (nothing to do with trying to repeal or replace anything!) The horns are a little quiet in the first verse but are more prominent thereafter - kind of a mild build, I guess you could say. I used the Belair style and changed out a few instruments and added a couple others. Di's health has kept me away for a couple of weeks. She's doing a little better, so I'm trying to catch up. Will be over to listen as many of the songs posted recently as I can. Skinny FunkKey=Eb , Tempo 110, Length (m:s)=3:25 Song is saved with Volume, Pan, Reverb, Chorus, Bank0, Song is saved with bar changes for Volume Changes, Style is _BELAIR.STY (Bel-Air Funky Pop w Agogo Bells) RealTracks in style: 1434:Bass, Electric, JazzFunkPoppy Ev16 110 RealTracks in song: 2347:Horn Section, Rhythm, Funk 2-part, Ev 110 (Simple) RealTracks in style: 1771:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm JazzFunkMovinMuted Ev16 130 RealTracks in style: 2525:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm FunkWahWahChords Ev16 100 Loop in Song: Drums\BluesRockFunky16ths^1-HHSnr,HHSB Loop in Song: Pop-Soul-RnB\R n B - ra_jule_90_a drums ev16.wav RealDrums in style: AgogoBellsEv[single]^01-a,b:8ths A

"nothing to do with trying to repeal or replace anything!" HaHaHa!
The wives should like that and get a good workout also.
Like Deryk said "infectious groove" and that is most ideal for workout music.
Well done and great to hear the good news about Di
Fun song!

J&B Hey ... thanks so much! I'll be giving them a CD with about 10 tunes on it in the next couple of weeks. They said they liked what they heard with this one. I have three written so far. Most of them have a late 60s and 70s vibe. Kind of a scaled down James Brown backing tracks. Thanks so much! Alan
