Gary,

An excellent use of BIAB. Great BAND. One of the best uses of the crooner horns I've heard.

Good vocals. Solid mix.

And a good "simple" write that works perfectly.

Really well done all around.

Hi Gary,

Original spoken intro and outro. Your well-paced composition is well mixed. I like your well put voice that comes out well. Good use of biab realtracks. The whole is well done. I appreciated.

Love it, Gary. Perhaps you are stuck, but, man, not stuck for creative expressions. Outstanding vocals and harmony. Wow, those horns sounds great. So hot. "Sure makes a mess of this box of candy." Excellent from start to fade.


Enjoy whatever happens!

There are a bunch of really excellent styles in BiaB that I know I'll never use, and it's a kick to hear people use them, especially when it's done so well, like you do here.

Great write - fits perfectly. Good singing, even if it's reluctantly done. wink

The horns, the solos, the phrasing, the harmonies - everything comes together to make this a fun recreation of this style of music.

And the spoken bit is - dare I say it - a hoot. laugh

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Gary,

I liked that old time radio sound intro! That's a cool song idea and production! I think your instrumentation choices were beautiful for this! That clarinet was perfect for this! Take care, T

Hi Floyd
When posting a new song it is always a nervous wait for the first comment. When I saw that the first respondent was you Floyd I was even more nervous .
I am overjoyed to read your positive comments which mean a great deal to me. Thank you Floyd.

Hi Ronnie.
Yeah biab is a quality product. I've been using it for well over twenty years (we havn't always seen eye to eye) and I feel I have only scratched the surface of it's capabilities.
Thank you for you kind words Ronnie.
cheers
Gary.

Great sweet melody and the old time mood dance together nicely. I very much enjoyed the vocals and feel good lyrics. The band is excellent and the clarinet solo made me wonder how Woody Allen would use this song in his movie.

An impressive use of this hardly used style- from fun intro through good vocals,great harmonies, a sweet clarinet solo and that spoken outro... everything works!

That spoken word intro (and outro) was unexpected, but fun!

Good song, you captured that era pretty well I thought, well done!

Kiitos Janne for your nice words and taking the trouble to comment. I am thrilled that this forum provides the platform to post a song from Australia and have a talented musician (your good self) in Finland listen and comment!
