Straightforward country boogie https://soundcloud.com/tonycliffsongs/just-around-the-next-bend Here's Donna's lyric: Just Around the Next Bend (Lyric © Donna Evans and Music © Tony Cliff 2018) Verse 1 The gypsy life used to be my style A record of a chequered past Now I’m traveling my miracle mile Searching for a love that lasts I’ll ride on even when it’s rough Won’t give in to old excuses ‘Cos I have got the right stuff To be the man I choose Chorus I know she’s out there somewhere The girl who’s waiting for me She a vision the reason I’m living Just around the next bend Curves may bring surprises I’m not the one to question why I smile because good times begin Just around the next bend Verse 2 I’ve turned around, paid my dues Bad times are fading away I’m out cruising nothing to lose Rollin’ down that blue highway With my mind clear and straight Ridin’ on a new found wave Feeling free never too late To find my new best babe Chorus It was great to use the excellent Brent Mason guitar playing on this track. I generated a few differnt versions and then used REAPER automation to bring sections in and out that fitted best in the song. This takes a little while of comparing but definitely pays off I think. Otherwise I added my own piano track, Trilian bass part and Shimmer, Shake, Strike Style is _BOOGBRT.STY (Country Boogie Brent Mason) RealTracks in style: ~539:Bass, Electric, Pop Sw 120 RealTracks in style: ~961:Guitar, Acoustic, Rhythm CountryBoogieOpen Sw 140 RealTracks in style: 1279:Guitar, Electric, Soloist CountryBoogieBrent Sw 140 RealTracks in style: ~966:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm CountryBoogieGrittyMuted Sw 140 RealDrums in style: NashvilleShuffle^06-a:Sidestick , b:Snare, HiHat Last edited by funkycornwall; 11/12/18 03:23 AM. www.tonycliffmusic.com http://tonycliff.bandcamp.com

And, yep, comping up RT solos (and sometimes rhythm tracks) is often the only way to get "there." Kudos y'all!!
