This was another fun project with Robert.
For this I used my Gretch Duojet and my Vox Amp.
For the effects I used a Empress Nebulus pedal and a touch of reverb.

I like it - snake oil with a bit of King of the World (Steely Dan) vibe. Great label graphic! But will it make me play better guitar?  Fun listen, thanks for posting!

What a cute & different song... However I'm not sure about those essence of onions ...
essence of incredulous onion
with crossed lover`s wine
a blunderbuss in the vitals
It might bring a tear to my eye ... Great collaboration guys... And a good job on that guitar Scott!

Was thinking more Sgt Peppers that Steely Dan, but glad you were entertained. Won`t help your playing, but might make the guitar shine applied as wax! Robert / Scott

Hi Robert,
What a creative idea usig a recipe (a set of instructions for preparing a particular dish, including a list of the ingredients required, acording to Google translator) for the lyrics!
Peter already wants a bottle!
Liked the song. Very funny. Immediately recognized the Gretch Duojet and Vox Amp of Scott (joke).
But nice your cooperation. worked out well!

Right from the get go I said "Beatles" (gotta love the Dr. Roberts reference) and Janice chimed in with "Dire Straits!" Yeah, that'll work for us anytime.
Warty toe = cool production. Warty toe...hmmm Frank Zappa?
We always enjoy y'alls collabs and this doesn't disappoint -- perhaps our fav.
As always the imagery is rich and cinematic in nature...begs for a video.
Good band, good collab, nice harmony, arrangement...all that stuff.
Enjoyed it!

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

Thinking the subject sounded Beatlish the chords began with a "Come Together" progression if I remember correctly. What a cute & different song... However I'm not sure about those essence of onions ...

Hans Hans, I`m glad you mention Scott`s guitar/rig... he really has an ear for what tone/effects to use to make the accompaniment/solo guitar gel with a song... to my ears he nails the George Harrison thing on this. Of course, its also good you found the song fun! Robert

Misha, You bring lots of zany fun music to this forum- I`m happy you enjoyed our contribution! No more free samples- the lab needs work. I've been looking for a blunderbuss for my vitals. I don't need it globally...just there. Fun project. Surely that Naam Pik available at your place works to prepare those vitals for our mixture. Thanks for the thumbs up. Clever (and fun) write! Sounds like I need some of that potion, will it cure hair loss?
I always enjoy Scott's guitar, you two make a good team.
Nice one you two! Thank you, Dave - yup Scott`s guitar is the best ingredient here. Hair loss?? It`ll turn you into a Wookie in a week! Robert

Thanks everyone for the awesome comments. This song was so much fun from the start. I read the lyrics first and was just amazed how Robert interlaced visuals in the lyrics in the backtrack. Was fun trying get the effects to sound a little like Georges sitar. This was one of my favorite times of Beatles music. I still listen to the Sgt Peppers album in my playlist. So glad Robert invited me along on this Magical Mystery tour :-)

There's some imaginative, creative writing!! Reminds me of The Who Sell Out (you've probably never heard that record). Wonderful sounds/guitar here to match the unique lyric. One question: Where can I buy some?? Nice job guys!!! Take care. Greg

Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.
Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.
Check out all the 202 new RealTracks (in sets 468-488)!
And, if you are looking for more, the 2026 49-PAK (for $49) includes an impressive collection of 20 bonus RealTracks, featuring exciting and inspiring additions to add to your RealTracks library.

There are also new indie-folk styles with guitar, bass, 6-string bass used as a high-chording instrument, acoustic guitar, and banjo. Plus, dedicated "cymbal fills" RealDrums provide an added layer that work very well with low-key folky styles with other percussion.
