Hi All, Here's something a bit laid back and lofi - this is called Lucinda Songs. I can hear you sing Ventura With my mind in a restful place No matter the news of the day I could drift away in space Got one hand on the rear view And the moonlight in my eyes The window’s half way down It’s hours till sunrise And you don’t owe me something sweet At the point we lose the sound Those Lucinda songs will cool my mind Should our lives become unbound I could contemplate the outcome With some futuristic view Ventura’ s on the radio I will let those waves come through Got your voice inside my head And the words fall all around The ache of night has passed It’s hours till sundown And you don’t owe me something sweet At the point we lose the sound Those Lucinda songs will cool my mind Should our lives become unbound All BIAB Tracks: 366: Bass, Electric, Country Ev 065 362: Guitar, Acoustic, Strumming Ev 085 362: Guitar, Acoustic, Fingerpicking Ev 085 2446: Guitar, Baritone Electric, Background Ev 065 RealDrums: NashvilleEven16 Sidestick HiHat Thanks for listening!  Bob

Beautiful ballad! Love your vocal as always, and the track sounds great too.
Lot's of great lines, my favorite is:
"Got your voice inside my head And the words fall all around The ache of night has passed It’s hours till sundown"
Enjoyed the listen!

Bob, A really nice arrangement and the vocal performance is cool. You should probably work out a template de esser setting for your vocal tone and reverb preference. Is the trem guitar you? Tasty stuff. I'd have loved a note to fade out on but hey, 'tis done.

Bob,
This is a real delight.
Exceptional writing - start to finish.
Super band - you are really taking these songs to where they deserve to be - using the right tracks to support them perfectly. You used that baritone guitar to great effect. Excellent arrangement. Excellent mix. Wonderful vocal.

You've done that yourself - superbly...

We are huge Lucinda Williams fans (everything she's ever cut) so just the title of this stood out on the screen. Love the references.
As fj said:
"Pour some soup, get a spoon and Stir it up real good" - LW"
And we agree you certainly did it most superbly with this song.
Another great band, arrangement, vocal, write and mix AND LW!
We look forward to many listens on our fav playlist.

PS We've often thought your arrangements and "bands" were Lucinda like. Of all of her work Down Where The Spirit Meets The Bone might be our fav...It's so cool for you to reference her!
Our albums and singles are on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora and more. If interested search on Janice Merritt. Thanks! Our Videos are here on our website.

Like Bud, I was struck by the title as I too am a Lucinda fan. The baritone works well and the rest of the band sounds great. Your usual interesting and captivating write. I always get pulled along for the ride. I enjoyed it. Really well done, Tom

This is fantastic! It displays a strong understanding of songwriting, and there are some very noteworthy lyrics here. The whole tune has a really melancholic quality to it, which personally I find endearing. Your vocal performance only helps solidify that. You should be proud of this one - thanks so much for sharing 
Cheers, Deryk
