Go On Teasin' on Soundcloud
Go On Teasin' on YouTube


You folks and this software are over-the-top inspirational, and I can't politely post all of these when they're done. Dave mentioned in my last song that he remembers adding his part in May of last year. This one was finished in June. Thanks for all you do folks.

I really have no idea what this song is actually about, and neither will you, Even the characters in it are uncertain of their roles.

Style is _TOWN.STY (Town 12-8 Gospel R&B Piano) [Gospel? Must be the lost Book Of BaBu.]

RealTracks in style: 4291:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm RnBSlow12-8Kevin Sw 060
RealTracks in style: ~529:Guitar, Acoustic, Strumming Hank Sw 065
RealTracks in song: 1955:Sax, Alto, Soloist TexasBluesRockSlow12-8Mark Sw 060
RealDrums in style:Nashville128^01-a:Sidestick, Hihat , b:Snare, Ride was used in the redesign in EZDDrummer.
I added bass, vocal and keyboard

Go On Teasin'
Right down the hill from Bailey's Farm
you'll see a path that takes you back
into the scarey woods that surrounds this town.
Then off the path you'll find a shack.
Knock upon the door, and you'll be glad I'm sure.
You're bound to smell the savoir faire.
The setting's mighty pleasin,' but that's not the reason you'll be there.

Go on inside but take your time. Make sure to keep an open mind.
The darkness has a knack to take wits away,
but through it all you'll find a sign.
Take the scary leap, but never fall asleep.
You'll dream about her bear, Babu.
If you came to find a reason, she'll likely go on teasin' till you do.

She makes the potions that will bring you to your knees.
She has a magic knack.
She stirs a tincture with some honey from her bees
ensuring her you'll be back.

She'll give you reason to stay another season,
and you'll be thrilled to abide.
You'll be glad you strayed from all the plans you made.
The shack's a hideaway for you.
When you feel you're losing reason, she'll likely go on teasin' till you do.

Marty,

Love this one!

Your vocal is excellent and the song has that great late 50's early 60's rock & blues feel. A very cool Doc Pomus vibe.

Instrumentation and production is your usual high standard. Tight and punchy.

Awesome work!

Bob

Marty, cool tune! LOVE your slinky vocals, yodels and yelps. The vocal FX chain is quite nice, too. Very nice arrangement and instrumentation. The EP(?) section was especially nice to my ears. Really nice one!

Great vox that fit the lyrical story! Love the use of the sax too.

Yeah, that's what the song is about, regardless of the lyrics.
No idea why there's a sax, though.

Thank you very much, Bob. WOw, Doc Pomus!?

Thanks, Laurent. At first I wanted to fashion the sax as more somber and mysterious, but he found the chord structure more celebratory. haha

Ha, thanks, Ron. Like the "yodels and yelps" moniker. Does EP mean electric piano? If so, thanks. Usually when I add anything other than bass, I keep it way out on the mix. But this one seemed to fit so well in the bridge. If not, listen again HAHA and see if you agree.

As I wrote on the YT post I really feel that this song has greater potential; IE: it's excellent as it is, but the chord structure would suit a faster tempo.

Marty,

That piano right out of the gate is engaging . . . and boy what a terrific write . . . patient and imaginative. Like that sax as well—just the right choice on the instrumental break. Perfect vocal mix. Excellent!!

Hi Marty,

I've always loved spunky piano Blues. And this one perfectly nails the genre.

Your vocal slider right over the lyric and give those words some real life.

You never disappoint - never.

All the best,

Alan

Thanks, Dewey. I'm not even sure what genre it is --was never good at that. I will, Dewey.

Thanks, Brain. Good story. You should write a sequel. The sax-shooter could be shot down in a duel with the honky tonk piano player, or a traveling trumpet player.

Thanks for the advice, Chay. I wouldn't be able to sing that fast. Still, you have the talent to draw out that potential.

Doesn't matter what it's about... I love these lines:

"You're bound to smell the savoir faire.
The setting's mighty pleasin,' but that's not the reason you'll be there."

That piano sounds good!
Strong Bass!
Oooooh...that was the best sax solo I've heard in some time!

Nicely mixed.

Marty. Now who's holding back?
Name and address please.

I agree with the other comment that the tempo could be upped and I couldn't help thinking what it would sound like even, other than swung. That Bbdim was a surprise.
Well mixed as we have come to expect from you. Very interesting lyric.

Ha. Nice, Floyd. Those lines describe the whole thing best --as long as it's followed by a questioning shrug. Glad you like the piano, and I can almost agree about the superlative sax. Thanks so much.

Well, she's just down the hill from Bailey's farm. (Bailey is a real person --wrote one about his dog Blue once.) But after that you either find it or you don't. If it was faster, not only would I have a hard time singing it, but we all would've ran right passed the place. Thanks, Vic.

“You'll dream about her bear, Babu.” smile

Cool “connect your own dots” tune.
Your vocal sets the mood perfectly.

Nice performances by you vocally and instrument wise.
Your keyboard on the bridge is cool - sounds like vibes.
The sax solo sounds great.

Good ole moody blues wrapped in an excellent mix.

Enjoyed it!

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!

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.

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