Janne,

Thank you! And I fully agree with your comment about BIAB's versatility. There arten't many sounds that cazn't be prtoduced with a little patience and extra effort, when needed.

Wishing you well,

Alan

Hi Marty,,

Sure do appreciate all that! You know how to put a smile on an old fart's face!

And yeah, I think we often have similar approaches to our music. But your production/final product is always so much better.

As far as other groups/acts we discussed:

Foreigner
Stix
Genesis
Pure Prairie League
The Mavericks
Looking Glass
Chicago (Transit Authority)
ABBA
Kansas
Mamas & Pappas

We didn't listen to much long hair rock - it's a genre we stink at trying to do anyway.

Thanks again for your kindness. Best to you & yours.

Alan

A solid instrumental. It checks all the boxes and certainly has that unmistakable Dire Straits vibe.

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.

Al and Di,

I love this! To be honest, after reading the song title and not seeing lyrics to go with this one, I was a bit disappointed since I'm a pig for lyrics and 'The Truth About Lies' is such a great hook!

However, the melody and production's movement and 'dire straight-ness' set my heart light! Well done, well done, well done!

Dewey
