Hi All, Here's a song I wrote several years ago - this rendition features fresh instumentation, a new vocal and vinyl processing with Ozone. The SceneShe is digging the scene Minetta Lane never looked so clean Headphones on to drown out the sound Minding her business as the deals go down She is digging the scene Hey pretty baby can you look over here Hey pretty mama can you lend me your ear She ain’t your baby she ain’t your mama She bought a ticket for the Café Wha? She is digging the scene Subways on time cause it’s late again Heading back to Brooklyn at 2AM All these hustlers wanna follow her around They look her up and they look her down She is digging the scene She is digging the scene She is digging the scene She is digging the scene She is digging the scene All BIAB Tracks: 995: Bass, Electric, HardRockLa Ev 120 629: Guitar, Electric, Rhythm PopAmericanDirty Ev 120 693: Guitar, Acoustic, Strumming AcRockBright Ev 120 2534: Guitar, 12-String Acoustic, HeldChords 699: Guitar, Electric, Rhythm ElecRockDirty Ev 120 1169: Guitar, Electric, Soloist RockMediumBrent Ev 120 RealDrums: RockModernSync Ev16 Loop: Other/Scratch - Phrasescatch 100a Ev16 Thanks for listening!

Bob!
This is the Rock-iest song I've ever heard from you (I think).
I never considered how well your lyric style would fit a flat-out-rockin' sound... but MAN! does it ever.
A great DRIVING mix. Drums and bass are excellent. A nice balance of rock guitars. And the vocal sits in there just right.
REALLY enjoyed this. Had me rockin' in my chair.
A big WOW on this one, son...

Bob, Hot stuff! Wholesome tune. Listens very well. Very cool use of scratch loop. I initially thought that was Fx'd Wha Wha pedal, until I looked at your recipe Thank you for sharing! Misha.

Bob,
I kind of squirm when reviewers say "this sounds so much like...,but hey, Lou Reed channeled with amazing authenticity through the Robert Dean style is just so good!
Bass and drums are loud and a little bit garage loose. Your vocal and the lyrics are fine... Cafe Wha? You take me there.
Robert

Nice work on this! The Lou Reed comparison brought up is totally valid in my point, and never a bad thing in my mind. The song really has some punch to it, and your gruff vocal suit the instrumental perfectly. Thanks for sharing
Cheers,
Deryk

Enjoyable fast pace tune, great groove, that loop works nicely and the guitar going back and forth gives vivid third dimension feeling. I like your rock voice.

Out of the park, Robert. Yeah, early Lou Reed "Sweet Jane." Way to strike it, Robert.

You paint the picture well. I like this rockier side. The band is nice and loud, but not overly dramatic, leaving room for your signature vocals. Good one, Bob.

Hi Robert,
On your SC-page I wrote this is realy a Rocksong! My last song was qualified as a rocksong, where I thought it was just Pop. But yours surely is!
You did a good job there. And made good use of your vocals.
