Cool! Very '70s vibe.
The vocal effects are super.

Oh Moto,
that was so damn cool.
Must admit I was wondering that noone ever seized that issue before..
From a European POV the whole gun thing looks simply incomprehensible.
Great vocal, great effects - just cool.
Take care,
Stefan

moto,
Excellent use of BIAB. And your wah guitar fits perfectly. A solid mix.
COOL vocals!! The octave stuff works great.
Best funk post ever on the forums, I think.
Loved it. Great job!

Captain Moto.... Uhhh, you mean captain beefhart. Man that's a cool tune.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Wow!
Been away for a couple weeks and the place is filled with great stuff!
I'm embarrassed to post a new one without checking out all the others......I promise I'll be diving in and commenting ASAP.
In the meantime, Here's one of mine:
Got the sad inspiration from watching the local TV news:
Ha, A George Duke "Dukey Stick" type of sound. Love the vibe. I don't like to critique anyone's song so I'll say it like this :-) If I was the producer I probably would have tried to add some Funk Hors and maybe a few harmonies on the hook lines. However, I ain't the producer :-) so I'll just jam to your New Orleans Funk Sound !! Good Job. Henry

Henry Thanks for dropping in Henry, This thing developed kinda quickly, if I was to take a more deliberated approach, It might have been a tad better. Thanks for the non critique.

Oh, Moto man, you are one of my favorite blues guys. A little blues rap this time. Missed ya, man. Very creative "double-tracking." Cool lyrics and a wonderful delivery.

CBO Thanks for listening. I can't imagine not being familiar with the Temptations, but then again, I'm an old man who grew up loving Motown Music. Very different! And very creative. Loved everything about this, well done! Thanks Dave, Just my feeble attempt at a mash up of Funk & Motown.
