Hi, friends ! As I went thru some old stuff the other day I happened to stumble upon this piece from my record of 1992 namely Feelin´free ! There´s no Band in a box involved on this as it is all played by me and my friends back then but I thought that these times are exceptional so maybe I could post a song like this nonetheless. On this record I played all guitar parts and sung most of the voices ! Funny to hear oneself singing so much higher than what I can do today ! Naturally the picture I was conveying do not correspond to the global situation of today but of some happier times way back then ! http://app.box.com/s/m94cbkdi63zdxkrd1utq1hxjusg03e3yStay safe ! Dani

Hey Dani,
Very good indeed! Great vocals, track sounds great too. Was this done in a studio?

Hi, Dave !
Yes, this was made at the millbrook studios here in Helsinki 1992 and to all that it might interest here is how we did it:
Firstly we played bass, comp guitar and drums at the same time (rhytm section) After that we added the vocals one by one followed by strings, cellos,el-piano, flute and lastly I played the guitar solos as you may have heard from some of the pieces I´ve displayed on this site f.i. Northward bound and My Wife e.t.c.
The mixing took place in the studio and the finish in Sweden where the CD:s were made !
Thank you Dave for your most kind words !
Stay safe !
cheers Dani

Hi Dani,
A fabulous track.
We need more up-beat songs like this to keep us smiling in these strange times!
A great recording from 1992 and all done on tape I assume - I remember those days with affection.
Super vocals, but no better than your recent songs, just different.
Thanks for sharing this one with us.
Cheers, ROG.

Dani, A wonderful reprise that showcases your vocal range and skill with those harmonies. Contagiously happy music with a very interesting backstory on the creation process.

Dani,
This is very good! I really enjoyed this. Great work with all the vocals.
Gosh, 1992 seems like yesterday instead of decades.
