Hi All,

Here's something new - simple and lowfi...

This is called Baby Get Gone.

Can’t get along
With my dreams
I lose my footing
Fall off the beam
I’m lost in the city
On some avenue
Without a name
Without a clue

So get gone baby
Get gone baby
Baby get gone

Don’t want angels
In my view
I can see the lights
They are tinted blue
I’m looking for heartbreak
To hold the line
Buy some options
Buy some time

So get gone baby
Get gone baby
Baby get gone

Can’t face the night
With myself
I like company
Good for my health
I’m closing my eyes
On this memory foam
Without you here
Without you home

So get gone baby
Get gone baby
Baby get gone

So get gone baby
Get gone baby
Baby get gone

So get gone baby
Get gone baby
Baby get gone

That's cool.
I like the arrangement - good choices.
The only tweaks I'd suggest is to EQ away the click in the kick so it's more thud and use a little EQ to reduce the level of the high hat.
Good work!


Cheers

Bob, one thing I can count on when listening to a new tune of yours is that the vocal will be great and the lyrics excellent and you've done it again! Nice work! Thanks, Torrey

That's a really extra-fine folk-rock song. Simple and to the point, yet still leaves me with some room for imagination. Loved your vocal and the tonally well-matched high-distorted guitar. Really like this.

Nice work. I especially like the acoustic in this and the other instrumentation that complement the melody and your voice. Catchy chorus!

Excellent, as usual. Solid production, poetic lyrics, sparse but effective arrangement.

I liked the fade out with the dry kick.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Bob,

Cool tune—nice inviting feel to this one. Great vocal keeps the listener hanging on the next word. Production stellar as well. I always struggle with drums on my tunes—not so much anyone else on this board—and here I think you just nail the drums. Really provides some good backbone. The electric guitar kills as well. Excellent work!

All the best,

Deej

Nice work on this one, Bob smile It gets right to the point - very concise, and very well executed. All the trademarks of a solid tune. Your vocals are memorable and stand out well, and it is perfectly catchy as well.

You should be proud of this one - thanks for sharing!

Bob,
Your songs know just how to get under the skin - simple and catchy, yes, but with some cool, quirky lyrics that leave space for the imagination.
And of course that signature clear upfront vocal.
I think you`ve made as good use of the Americana RT`s as anyone posting here.
Excellent work!

Bob,

Outrageously good!!

Terrific write. Love the BAND! And your vocal/delivery is one of your best ever.

This truly sounds like an opening cut off an album - an introduction that says "Listen up! You are in for a treat!" Cool album-cover picture to go with it....

One of your best (among so many good ones). You just keep getting better...
