Foreign Correspondents Something a LITTLE different this time. As I was remixing this older (but previously unposted) tune, David Crosby passed away. Complicated guy but he could really crush a vocal harmony, and he's had a big impact on me. So decided to rearrange the vocals as a CSN&Y-style excursion. My vocalist decided to fire Neil (it happens) and I think that was the better choice. Though the subject isn't profound (or is it?), I find my lyricist's approach to telling the story inexplicably endearing. He does that a lot... THANKS in advance for taking the time to listen if you can, and for any thoughts you care to share. Lyrics: R.W. Davis Vocals: D.A.

Ron,
This is a killer song... So well written and produced. The mix is outstanding.
D. A. Hughes is an awesome singer - great harmonies for sure.
The harmonica was a very nice touch.

Wow! This is a really good song and rhythm track arrangement. It's a beautiful flow and D.A. Hughes has got a great voice, which is perfect for it. But I'd love to know what the lyrics are specifically about.
Some favourite Waoist Adages: #1: Play on the Way. #13: Ask not for whom the flower blooms, it blooms for you. #58: Bring consciousness to it. #63: On the road to effortlessness, effort must be made. #92: Be Love Now, the rest will come on its own.

But I'd love to know what the lyrics are specifically about. Chay, thanks for the listen! I'd love to know exactly what most of our song lyrics mean, but only know a few for sure. So I'm usually writing around my own interpretation. This one I interpret quite literally, recognizing there is perhaps a broader metaphorical interpretation as well. Glad you enjoyed it!

Yes,
This is a really great track and I love those gorgeous David Crosby harmonies that you're talking about.
Just a really good song all around by everyone involved.
You're really killing it this year and coming out with some great stuff man, keep it up!

A truly interesting write. Nice tracks. Good vocals. Sweet harmonies! Solid mix.
I got more of a sixties-tight-pop-vocals feel vs. a CSNY-ish sound. Freddie and the Dreamers? The Buckinghams? Good stuff.

WOW you really captured the CSN vocal harmonies. The song is really cool, like the lyrics, the mix, the choice of styles, arrangement. Everything hangs together perfectly.

Hi Ron,
A great song, and Dusty always delivers on the vocals. I tend to agree with Floyd about style/era reference. The groups that came to mind, in addition to The Buckinghams were The Association and Pure Praire League.
Regardless, it's one helluva song and so well performed. Great stuff!
Take care,
Alan

You're really killing it this year and coming out with some great stuff man, keep it up! Geez, David, thanks a lot! A truly interesting write. Nice tracks. Good vocals. Sweet harmonies! Solid mix. I got more of a sixties-tight-pop-vocals feel vs. a CSNY-ish sound. Freddie and the Dreamers? The Buckinghams? Good stuff. fj Glad you liked it, Floyd! Love all those old 60s bands that stacked the harmonies. The unique quality of CS&N (and sometimes Y) to me was their ability to sing so tightly as one voice. I attribute much of that to David along with Graham. Their duo albums blow me away...THANKS for the listen! WOW you really captured the CSN vocal harmonies. The song is really cool, like the lyrics, the mix, the choice of styles, arrangement. Everything hangs together perfectly. THANK YOU, Elliott! Like a lot of your music (I'm speculating) this song was something of a labor of love. Only took seven years to finish...Yikes! Hi Ron, A great song, and Dusty always delivers on the vocals. I tend to agree with Floyd about style/era reference. The groups that came to mind, in addition to The Buckinghams were The Association and Purer Praire League. Regardless, it's one helluva song and so well performed. Great stuff! Take care, Alan Alan, thanks! Yep, Dusty did it again (and always). Hey, those aren't bad band references, I'll take 'em. I can remember exactly where I was the first time I heard Amie on an AM car radio. Now THOSE were the days! THANKS again for the listen!

Ron, I think you nailed the CSN harmonies. Dusty did a great job on the vocals. I really liked the mandolin and blues harp parts. Outstanding backing band, lyrics, and mix.
Life is short so make sure you spend as much time as possible on the Internet arguing with strangers.

Hi Ron,
Love this one! I'm a big fan of CSN (and sometimes Y) also, especially the harmonies, and your vocalist nailed them.
Good write, good track and mix.
Top quality all the way, enjoyed!

Killer sound and killer harmonies. Crosby would approve. The subject is not profound, but I actually had such an interview a few years ago

I really liked the mandolin and blues harp parts. Outstanding backing band, lyrics, and mix. Mario, glad you enjoyed it! Yeah, Dusty elevates everything, he's the bomb. Hi Ron, Love this one! I'm a big fan of CSN (and sometimes Y) also, especially the harmonies, and your vocalist nailed them. Good write, good track and mix. Top quality all the way, enjoyed! Thanks for the listen, Dave! Those original CSN(Y) harmonies are still thrilling... Killer sound and killer harmonies. Crosby would approve. The subject is not profound, but I actually had such an interview a few years ago  Well, Dave Crosby didn't approve of much, but your kind suggestion makes me smile just the same. Sorry for your interview experience! Suspect these types of communication gaps are far more common than they have to be. Maybe even more so in today's short-attention-span, internet-centric environment. Glad you liked it!

Hi, Ron. As usual, someone else beat me to the comment: you never fail to put out a solid pop track. Bright, musical, solid vocals. Fun listen!

I'm with ya on loving the lyrics of R.W. Davis. Good storyteller with consideration for the vowels the singer will hold. Vocals sound outstnding too. Love all you do, Ron. David Crosy has always been a favorite.

Another super vocal. The harmonies are spot on. I figured I’d be in for a time travel experience and I was right. You have cornered the market on this nostalgic sound. Very good production all around. Perfectly executed, Tom

David Crosy has always been a favorite. Thank you, Marty! A funny back story is that my lyricist had been sending me his "poetry" for years before it clicked that these were song lyrics. Doh! Thanks for the listens and the compliments to the team! Another super vocal. The harmonies are spot on. I figured I’d be in for a time travel experience and I was right. You have cornered the market on this nostalgic sound. Very good production all around. Perfectly executed, Tom Tommy, glad you enjoyed it! Dusty's marvelous vocals can't make a stinker of a song good, but they can make a good song sound GREAT. I still learn things each time I listen to him. Thanks for the listen!

Jazz, Funk & World (Sets 468-475):
Our new jazz, funk & blues RealTracks include a groovin’ collection of RealTracks and RealDrums! These include more requested “soul jazz” RealTracks featuring artists Neil Swainson (bass), Charles Treadway (organ), Brent Mason (guitar), and Wes Little (drums). There are new “smooth jazz” styles (4), which include a RealTracks first: muted trumpet, as well as slick new smooth jazz brushes options for drums. Blues lovers will be thrilled—there are more “classic acoustic blues” styles, including guitar (5), bass (4), and drums (10) with blues master Colin Linden, featuring understated and tasty background acoustic soloing, plus brushes drums and acoustic bass. There are also new electric blues RealTracks, including electric blues with PG favorite Johnny Hiland (3) and soulful electric slide guitar from Colin Linden (4). If you love funk & gospel, there are great new options this year, including gospel organ (3) from Charles Treadway, as well as new funk, tango, and rock ’n’ roll drums (3) and bass (1). And for big, bold arrangements, we have uptempo soul horns (4) featuring a three-part hip horn section with options for a full mix or stems of each individual horn — plus an accompanying rhythm section (4) of drums, bass, guitar, and electric piano!
Rock & Pop (Sets 476–482):
Our new rock & pop RealTracks bring a powerful mix of requested favorites, fresh genres, and modern chart-inspired styles! We have more of our popular “Producer Layered Acoustic Guitars (15)” featuring Band-in-a-Box favorite Brent Mason. We’ve continued our much-requested disco styles (10), and added new Celtic guitar (5) with a more basic, accessible approach than our previous Drop-D or DADGAD offerings. There are also highly requested yacht rock styles (17), inspired by the smooth, polished soft-rock sound of the late ’70s and early ’80s — laid-back grooves, silky electric pianos, warm textures, elegant harmonic movement, and pristine production aesthetics. Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.
Country, & Americana (Sets 483–488):
Our new country & Americana RealTracks deliver a rich collection of acoustic, electric, and roots-inspired styles! We have new country pop (9) with legendary guitarist Brent Mason. There is also a potpourri (14) of bouzouki, guitars, banjo, and more, perfect for adding texture and character to contemporary acoustic arrangements. We’ve added funky country guitar (5) with PG favorite Brent Mason, along with classic pedal steel styles (5) featuring steel great Doug Jernigan. There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.
Check out all the 202 new RealTracks (in sets 468-488)!
And, if you are looking for more, the 2026 49-PAK (for $49) includes an impressive collection of 20 bonus RealTracks, featuring exciting and inspiring additions to add to your RealTracks library.

Plus, dedicated "cymbal fills" RealDrums provide an added layer that work very well with low-key folky styles with other percussion.
