For somebody that, as I recall, cut his teeth on country you have got this funk thing down!!! As in James Brown get down!
Man, that is cookin' -- great work. As I've said before talent + BiaB = some amazing productions.
Superb!
J&B Howdy Folks! And yes, you remember correctly. I played nothing but country for the first 25 - 30 years of my music making - about 50 years total. I grew up playing Hank Williams, Webb Pierce, Wynn Stewart, Eddy Arnold, Faron Young, Billy Walker - then Merle, Buck, Ray Price, and the like. But I always listened to Lou Ralls, Stevie Wonder, The Commodores, Dizzy Gillespe, Lionel Hampton, george Shearing and performers of that ilk when I was at home. Always liked James Brown - Chuck Berry not so much. Anyway ... I truly appreciate your very kind and supportive comments. I'll be faxing you a big bunch of 'thank yous' and a cup of my homemade chili. Sorry if it gums up the fax machine! Best to you both. Alan

Alan, super energetic funk/soul cut. Perfect for the workout crowd. The horns sound great. This is a fine example of what this program can do when manipulated by expert hands. Well done, Tom

Cool tune...
I saw a documentary on James Brown.... seems he was quite the demanding task master with his bands. Precision and perfection were the rules of the day. In fact, in one of his live show videos, you can hear him yell "Got Cha" to the drummer who missed a syncopated beat. He charged a fine for such infractions of his rules.
Your tune was funky. All it was lacking was the Godfather himself yelling "Hit me"... "Owwwww"... "Get it baby"
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Hello, Alan
Very cool old Motown soul sound!
Really nice horn section!
The bass and drums also make a very good taste of Motown.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

This sounds really great all. Let me know if you find that style!!!  Was it JB_Brass an all midi style to which you added real tracks?? It is right below JBrown which may be a tip-off.

Your tune was funky. All it was lacking was the Godfather himself yelling "Hit me"... "Owwwww"... "Get it baby" hey herb! many thanks, my friend. And yeah, I've heard the same things about JB. he considered himself the ultimate entertainer, not just a singer. You probably know, but if you don't here's a bridge in Steamboat Springs, CO named after him (I used to live in Denver). It's the James Brown Soul Center of the Universe Bridge. Man, if I could song 1/10 as good as him, I'd put some screaming lyrics to this. I can barely sing "Mary Had A Little Lamb" without tomatoes headed my way! But I thought the same thing about getting someone to put a vocal on it. Don't know anyone who can do it, though. Many thanks! Alan

Take care. Greg Well Greg, The Answer is still Blowing In The Wind! Glad you liked it! It originally started out as just a workout tune with a basic funky bed. But it morphed into this pretty quickly. Thanks so much! Best to you. Alan

Super cool.
fj Thank ya, sir! When ya ready to do those screaming vocals??!! My vocal cords just went into hiding at the mere thought. As you know, merely humming off-key is a major accomplishment for me. But I sure do appreciate those very nice words - thank you very much! Alan

David, Thanks for the nice words. And yes, it's the JB_Brass style. I remember I substituted real tracks for all but the bass and the midi horn tracks. I added a paired set of BIAB horns. if you use the use the PG Dynamics plug-ins on the base and drums, it really brings them to life. Thanks again and hope that additional info helps. best to you. be safe in the storm!!!! Alan PS: Di says "Hi David!"
