Ha! That dog cracked me up. smile

Those banjos are fun. And the fiddles fit right in.

The washboard was a bit... crunchy? But it's an unusual instrument, so maybe I'm just not used to hearing it.

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

Fun bluegrass romp for sure. The BiaB bluegrass instruments generally sound really good to me, and this is a great example of how to put them to work. And yes, the dog is a hoot! Pass a jar, as they say!

Thank you guys, appreciate the comments. Yes David, the washboard is one of those very folkish instruments which sound most folks are not used to hear or even know that exist, but yeah, is crunchy.

Cheers

Man, you write in all directions so well, Mike. Yep, I see those ol' cars speeding down country roads followed by the lawman. We know the lawman is in such a hurry to get a taste.


Enjoy whatever happens!

The two of us played in and recorded with several bluegrass bands for many years and we feel you did a fine job with the choice of tracks and the mix. So many folks when they attempt bluegrass with RT's don't swap off both solo and rhythm tracks for the fiddle, banjo, etc. Kudos.

And nailed by the canine!

Fun,

J&B

I’ve often said that the bluegrass real tracks are among some of the best. Good job on the arrangement and production. The barking made me look out the window. Way to stretch out,Tom

Mike, you nailed the moonshine runners theme.
I pictured both Robert Mitchum flying down Thunder Road with the local police hot on his trail and the Dukes of Hazzard being chased by Rosco P. Coltrane!

Great use of RTs and a great mix.

PS - I tried real moonshine once. One swallow was enough for me!

Mike,
fun, good "spirited" tune. Well arranged and mixed.
The washboard and barking surely upped the percentile of your Moonshine. Good mix & listens well. Thank you for sharing.

Hi Mike ...

Your musical talents stretch across a wide swath of genres. This Bluegrass done right. Enjoyed every note from beginning to end. The pooch is a real nice punctuation at the end! I like it a lot!

Mike, I'm not sure if you created the Song, or some Moonshine, (or both grin )

Nevertheless, the choice of instruments and the mix are perfect for some Moonshine Creativity.

And Fido having his say at the end is a great way to have a laugh.
