BiaB style - AG_Soul - slow soulful gospel Tempo - 75 BPM Drums - Steven Slate's SSD5 - Classic rock - FX - Waves CLA drums Piano - Kontakt - upright piano K5 Strings - B4II - 17 Woodstock I am playing these instruments: Fretless bass through Amplitube - SVX - pop fingered 1 Rhythm guitar - Strat copy through Amplitube - Ambience SR Leas guitar - Strat copy through Amplitube - Jimi Hendrix - SR Fuzz I Can't Take It No More I can't take it no more I can't take it no more I can't go out that door Can't go to no store I can take it no more I can't take it no more I can't take it no more I can't see my friends When will this end I can't take it no more Can't get in my car and go to a bar Can't leave my home and go out and roam Can't go out on the town Can't do a damn thing with a Police Ankle bracelet on Lead I can't take it no more I can't take it no more I was really tough But the judge called my bluff I can't take it no more

Hi Mario,
Must have been very difficult lyrics to remember! The amount of lines 'I can't take it no more' are numerous ;-) I'm joking a bit. You did a nice Blues with this one, Mario. I have two suggestions: 1) your vocals may sound a bit louder than they do and 2) the leadguitar and piano too
But that evil virus is bringing a lot of creativity in this forum, don't you agree? And that I can take some more...
Stay safe, Hans

Hi Mario. I just love everything about this ! The music , vocal and especially the lyrics . I played it over my loudspeakers and was jamming along on my piano having a great time in the key of A. I am going to take it along to my next music group meeting (we play mainly 12 bar stuff) but rest assured ,I will tell them where I got it . I love your quirky sense of humour !

SUPERB!!! Made me grin from ear to ear. You really are a creator - even when you write songs like these, with more than just a hint of humour to them, they are absolutely top-notch. Well done - a joy to listen to and a smile to my ears :-)

Hey Mario, I'm sure a lot of people out there fills the same way, I included. Agreed wit Hans, Vocals and lead guitar may need to be brought a little more to the front. Other than that good production as usual.
Cheers

Now that was fun! And decidedly different, in a good way, from most of your catalog.
Cool performances and love the tale’s twist.
You know us ... hard to go wrong with the blues!
Enjoyed it.

Gary, I'm glad that you like it. If you wish I can send you a MP3 minus the piano part and you could add your own. Just let me know via a PM.

Mario,
Classic blues feel to this—nice playing on this as well, and a vocal that fits it really well. I think this might be the first song I've heard from you with a vocal, actually . . it’s very good and a cool listen. Good, good stuff!
All my best,
Deej
