Here is a new song for December. When Robert sent me the demo about 3 minutes into the song I got a very familiar Beatles vibe. I mentioned this to Robert and he suggested we go in that direction with the song production. This was a lot of fun to make. Jericho Rockets Room - Video Jericho Rockets Room - Soundcloud Robert Cordrey, lyrics, vocals, video production Scott Collingwood, lead guitar, synths and fills, soundtrack production Band in a Box, Leonardo.ai, Kyber.ai Mixed and Mastered in Studio One 6 More Spirit Level can be heard at ://soundcloud.com/spiritlevel.ca The Band: File:jerichorocket`sroom2.SGU Key=Bb , Tempo 112, Length (m:s)=3:40 7 bar intro, 93 bar chorus, from bar 8 to bar 100. Repeat x1 chorus Melody has 767 notes, Melody harmony is < no harmony >(0) No Soloist track. Song is saved with Volume, Pan, Reverb, Chorus, Bank0, Song is saved with bar changes for Time signature, Style is _FLAIR.STY (Flair Indie Folk Guitar) RealTracks in song: 3589:Bass, Electric, NashvilleRadioPopPushB Ev 110 RealTracks in style: 3647:Guitar, Acoustic, Fingerpicking IndieFolk16ths ev16 100 RealTracks in style: 1686:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm PopPromiseCrispA-B Ev16 100 RealTracks in style: 1689:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm PopPromiseGrittyA-B Ev16 100 RealTracks in song: 3768:Guitar, 12-String Electric, Rhythm ModernPopBrent Ev 120 RealTracks in song: 4199:Guitar, Acoustic, Rhythm SongwriterGentleRnBChop Sw 110 RealDrums in style:PopPromiseEv16^1-a: Snare on 4, HiHat , b: Snare, Open HiHat Synths were done with Analog V Guitar tones were processed through a Helix using Marshall and Dumble patches.

Scott / Robert,
That is an excellent song. Love the lyrics, mix and the vocal delivery is great, especially the emphasis on the spoken parts. Very nice work by both of you.
The production and guitar tones are superb. That Dumble patch really comes through.
Loved it all!
Bob

Cool and different, and well arranged.
Trademark C&C craziness.
I'll call you the Monty Python of BIAB, and I mean that in the best positive way.
I really enjoyed my listen!

You two make some mighty fine music. This one's a little different than your typical post -but different in a most enjoyable way. I agree with a previous comment referencing Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club cut. Lots of Beatles sounds here.
Good stuff - great listen!

Hey this is really cool guys!
It reminds me of something from the 60s, not early King Crimson but something like that.
Anyway, super production and playing and just a whole lot of fun!!!

Cool. Like Mr Kite went to Strawberry Fields, and was then transported to Solsbury Hill...
Very original and quite inventive in arrangement and production. Playful and very fun to listen to.
Love what you did with this!

Oh, yeah. The SpiritLevel rises to new heights. This is so good. The Beatles are more like Wannabees compared to this production. Haha!! Blasphemy be damned. Serioulsy thought, I listened the other day of YT, and it sounds so good on Soundcloud too. But that video production adds so much. I finally had to open a free account with Leonardo. Thanks.
The charachter voices in here are incredible. Firesign Theatre good.

Spirit Level never disappoints and IMHO this is your best to date.
Super production from start to finish.
Great mix and video.
PS - although I did get a Beatles vibe in sections I thought this also could fit in The Rolling Stones'
Satanic Majesties Request album.
I think my wife has started to show the first signs of dementia.

Unique and original. Very reminiscent of the latter half of the 60s, which I very much like. Excellent work patching it all together. Sounds great.

Way cool! Lewis Carroll meets Willie Wonka meets the Sgt. Peppers Band meets the Jefferson Airplane.
Very imaginative lyric.

Fun vocals and well produced audio and vid.

Very colourful, Scott and Robert.
The lyrics are other worldly. Where do they come from?
Imagination running wild. What fun.

Scott and Robert,
This is an incredibly fun video and music for Beatles fans.
The spirit of parody is fully displayed.
It's also full of originality.
I pay tribute to the talent of you two.
Enjoyed my listen and watch a lot.
Best regards.
