Hi All, Here's something called Greyhound. I remembered to dream tonight I remembered tonight I could see your shadowed smile In a single stream of light You run through my mind like a silver blue greyhound I remembered the silver light I remembered the light I could see the moon fade out In a passage from the night You run through my mind like a silver blue greyhound I remembered to wake tonight I remembered tonight I could see the room grow dim In a broken ray of light You run through my mind like a silver blue greyhound You run through my mind like a silver blue greyhound Silver blue, Silver blue, Silver blue Silver blue, Silver blue, Silver blue BIAB Tracks: 1293: Bass, Electric, TexMexCountry Ev 120 1119: Guitar, 12-String Acoustic, Strumming Ev 120 691: Guitar, Acoustic, Rhythm, AcRockBright Ev 120 2541: Pedal Steel, Background ModernPopCountry Ev 110 RealDrums: NashvilleEven16 Snare, HiHat, Snare, Ride Loop: Tamborine Quarters 4 bars As always - thanks for listening!

Bob,
Nice. A good write. Simple and effective.
Excellent production/arrangement. Excellent mix. You do a great job of using BIAB for a truly "signature sound". A studio-quality singer-songwriter sound... Excellent vocal.
Enjoyed several listens.
(only seen a couple of Greyhounds in the past decade! They used to be everywhere...)

Hello Robert,
I recognize your style right away. The moment I hear the vocals I say "Ah, Bob Dean"!
A very nice song that I enjoyed a lot. It is what Floyd wrote: 'simple and effective'.
But effective in many ways. compact lyrics, a straight melody and with the nice use of that Pedal Steel!
As I said, I enjoyed it a lot.
Hans

Bob, this is such a great job making those Realtracks your own and "fitting" the song so well! Love the mix and the way the vocal is the primary focus of the song (as it should be). Another very good one from you! Thanks, Torrey

"I could see your shadowed smile In a single stream of light" Nice! Great job on the arrangement! I love how it builds. Mix is just top notch too, sounds fabulous through the 'phones. And of course that signature vocal sound you have  Really good, Bob, listened a few times.

Bob, I loved how this started and the simplicity in the backing tracks that you have blended into one outstanding piece of music. Great vocal and lyrics also.
This is your best to date IMHO.
Tips on how to fall asleep in a living room chair:
1- Be old
2- Sit in a chair
64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware
