Marty,
the high pass would be on the bass BUT yes, the stereo drum file is hard yakka to mix.
I hadn't watched the video but I have now...interesting coincidence that my current vid project is a lyric one...no me!

Brilliant! So much fun. The mix is so clear, too. Nothing to criticise, comment, etc. - just a really fun track that had me foot-tapping all the way through! You make it look easy - it's not as easy as it sounds to create something like this, by any means ... so bravo :-)

Catching up on the music here..... and wow.... you got a good one here.
Glad I dropped in.
I think you nailed that roll rock and roll vibe and the clarinet solo was a perfect choice of instruments.
I enjoyed that song.

"like sundaes on Sundays" Hard to choose a fav phrase outa so many great ones but, man, is that one cool. And add these to the cool bag: -vocals - melody - your bass - clarinet and piano choice - mix - video ... noted your photos in it also Bud says the biggest kudo is it had Janice dancing and singing around the house  Excellent! J&B

Great groove and I really enjoyed your exuberant singing on this one. Excellent work! Hi, TuneMonger! Thanks for the spin and encouraging comment. Catchy and toe-tapping. Honestly, you had me at the title. Great backing tracks with a groove that doesn't stop. Sounds great on my speakers. Your vocal is upbeat and enthusiastic, and the harmonies are a treat. Really fun! Thanks so much, David. Yeah, this all started with the title. Those harmonies are at the top of my range --maybe a bit over it.  Twice I had to raise an F#ish note to a G in Melodyne. I used to be able to go much higher, but now I'm at least a step and a half older. Marty,
Love the write—and the melody that goes with—you have a nice way of touching that inner toe-tapping self. Great harmonies on that chorus . . . and on that bridge. You are a talented songwriter. And, boy, that clarinet solo just slays. Great stuff!
All my best to you,
Deej
Thanks for you kind comment, Deej. I really like how that clarinet came out. It seemed quite unusual for the piece, but I was happy it seemed to be perfect right out of the box. No regenerations or multi riffs were used in the making of that solo. Marty.
HOLY MOLY !
one word SUPERB...
loved the use of vocal doubles/harmonies etc etc.
a great song write imho.
loved that tremelo gtr in the background.
and the way you did the ending. lovely last note hold mate.
i mean it sincerely,...
THIS IS A GREAT SONG IN THE VEIN OF THE CLASSICS/GREATS that youve written. VERY CATCHY. this song should be studied in songwriting course 101 re how to build "hooky riffs" in a song.
count me very VERY impressed/happiness.
om Man, what a wonderful comment, om. You made my day, man.

Hello Marty,
It's an interesting song.
It's a song just like the time of its birth when rock and roll separates from old jazz.
Nice groove!
Your singing is great.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best Regards.
Shigeki Adachi Thanks, Shigeki Adachi. I love that time of music. Just a brilliant song, absolutely one of your best, Marty.
Everything about it just works, outstanding write, great arrangement (love the clarinet), vocals are stellar, good mix.
And to top it off, the video is fabulous.
Love it! Thanks, Dave!!! What's next? That was damned good. Well played and well written. You found a great melody in that tune. Cool video too.
Golden lyric alert:
"So step outside of your slumber, and stare back into your dream."
Nice. Thanks, jptjptjpt! Yeah, I like when that line came through. It says it perfectly. Rock and Roll with a swinging clarinet solo!
I really enjoyed this tune good old-time rock and roll. There is something about this that makes me think of Elvis Costello (perhaps an influence of yours?).
Great melody, your voice sounds great when you jump up to higher pitches during the verse.
The video's great. Where did you get the clips? Really cool lyric sliding around effects, is that hard to do?
Thanks for sharing Thank you, frank. Glad you like it. The video clips are from pexels.com; the stills are mine. Those effects are easy with the software. I use Camtasia, but a lot of them have that ability.

Hi Marty,
These kind of joyful songs I really like from you, as I wrote you before.
It always looks as if you have a lot of fun making them. Not that I don't have fun while making music, but in your case pleasure can be heard in the song.
And didn't I tell you that your lyrics are very cleverly written? Well, they are!
Enjoyed the song very much, Marty! No wrong notes in it ;-)
Hans

Sounds like a party, Marty.  I can hear this in a movie. Vic Thanks, Vic. maybe an old surfer movie with Annette Funicello. hehe Hi Marty.
Great work putting this entertaining track together. Always love the animated enthusiasm of your vocal . Clarinet and R&R , who would have thunk it? But you made it work. "Teach them all the 3 chords.
Then give each one a pink Cadillac, and let them fill in these words because" Yes-sir-eeeeee!
Band sounds good and the singer is at the top of his game. Fun Fun Fun.
regards
Gary ( I grin it as I spin it) Right? Clarinet? Thanks, Gary Marty,
This is great - love the song and vocal. The clarinet was an awesome touch!
Excellent!
Bob Thanks so much, Bob!

Catchy old style rock'n'roll. Smiling meta lyrics, clever title You have clearly found the songwriting horn of plenty and the Midas Touch of creativity. Lovely arrangement, like the introduction of the MIDI piano. The clarinet solo is excellent, I wish that some day we have also slow and even clarinet solos in BIAB. Your singing sounds very relaxed and happy. Janne

I hadn't watched the video but I have now...interesting coincidence that my current vid project is a lyric one...no me! Yes, Ray, I really like your new video --I like the old ones too. You have many talents, and I really like how you share them to help others. Thanks. Brilliant! So much fun. The mix is so clear, too. Nothing to criticise, comment, etc. - just a really fun track that had me foot-tapping all the way through! You make it look easy - it's not as easy as it sounds to create something like this, by any means ... so bravo :-) Thanks so much, James. You are an inspiration. Catching up on the music here..... and wow.... you got a good one here.
Glad I dropped in.

I enjoyed that song. Thanks, Herb. I'm so glad you dropped in, too. You and your songs really set a high bar, and it's mostly because of you that I found this forum through your FB page. Thanks.
Very cool. Marty at his best tune! Very lively, lots of positive energy. Radio quality tune. Smooth listen. Nothing to add but congrats! Enjoyed it much. Thank you for sharing.
Misha.

Thanks, Misha!! Haha, I'm waiting for someone to recount those Ss and Ts.

Hi Marty
Wow, this is really hep cat!
You knocked it out of the park with the feel you were going for! When you sing the chorus, ("I'm in it for the minute") it's just like Bill Haley is singing into that Electro Voice microphone with you. And that big band sound you got happening would even make Brian Setzer start to wonder if you stole his orchestra! The amusing lyrics also make for a fun listen. But my question is, Where do I sing up to learn these 3 chords you're talking about? And if you run out of pink Cadillacs, I'd settle for and old brown Rambler... HA!

J&B Thanks you two. "sundaes on Sundays AND YOU." I figured someone would smack me for such a silly double entendre. Anyway, next time get a vid of Janice dancing. I sure could use some REAL footage. Loved this Marty. The walking bass lines were very cool. Super vocal and fun lyrics. Well done Thanks for taking the time to listen, Scott. Really glad you liked it. Hi Marty,

Love everything about this......Fun, Clever, so well delivered in every way!! A HOME RUN Marty!!!! Take care. Greg Ah, Greg Johnson, my favorite vocalist. Thank you, brother.

It looks like I'm late to the party too. Did I just step into a time machine? "Like the cherry on the whipping"? Hmmmm! Ooooo. Like that clarinet solo. That's great. Cool song. Catchy as hell. Great vocal and harmony. Oh yeah, the bass is good too.

I remember seeing Bill Haley and HIS comets once and they had no bass player. Can you imagine? The guitar player played some of the bass parts here and there. And I believe he DID have an Electrovoice 667 --the old style. Haha. The first car I had to drive was my mom's 1959 Nash-Rambler station wagon with push-button drive. It was green. Marty
