Nasty Bump on Soundcloud
Nasty Bump on YouTube


A song about how life is not supposed to be smooth sailing. A driving song about driving through life when the unexpected happens.

Style is _LATNBLU.STY (Latin Percussion Roadhouse Blues)

RealTracks in style: 2634:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm CountryBluesRock Ev 110
RealTracks in style: 580:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm Blues Roadhouse Ev 120
RealTracks in song: 671:Organ, B3, Background Southern Ev 120
EZDDrummer.
Bill Davis (zydecoal) played pedal steel, and I sang and played bass.


Nasty Bump

Cruisin' through our life, navigating all the road signs.
Lookin' for the turns that will take us to the right place.
Grip the steering wheel and push the pedal all the way down.

When the way is smooth as gold
just swerve around the curve.
There's a nasty bump on the road ahead. Take it.

Nothin' in the book will teach us how to keep our head on straight.
Gotta stay alert and keep the windshield clean and clear.
When we look away the risk to lose control is way high.

Watch for potholes. They can dance around the road at night.
Keep the fuel full, the engine finely tuned. We'll be alright. Alright

If we lose our way, we open up our inner GPS. (Grand Plan System)
Maps to where we turn will show up on bright display.
When we make it home we'll pull into the drive and shake off dust.

When our way was blocked with curves
we learned to make the turns.
All the nasty bumps on our road we paved wtih love

Marty this sounds like it came from a pro studio. Loved the groove. Your backing band fit perfectly and sounded great. I really liked your vocal on this one. The lyrics were a great description of life, many good times and many bumps.
Loved it.

Marty,

Great song and great band! AWESOME vocal! You have never sounded better. Love all the texture and slides in your vocal.

The mix on this is truly outstanding. It sounds like it was cut in a pro studio.

LOVED everything about it!

Hi Marty! A really good driving rhythm to this - your vocal is great - love the yodel effect and long held notes. Bill’s pedal steel smoothed out the bends as well.

One thing I noticed - the rhythm guitar on the left sounded like it lost its timing in various sections, or at least wasn’t quite on the beat with the rest of the band - at least to my ear.

But overall, a really cool song, and I can still hear it playing in my head even now. Good video as well.

Great energy to this, Marty, and your vocal was primo. As others have said, some of the little tricks you did vocally really made the track.

Marty, I really liked the beat--got me from the very beginning! I figured your vocal "slides" paralleled the pedal steel guitar--cool idea!
Thanks for posting another excellent project!

Thanks very much, Mario. Yep, navigating the bumps and adapting to the flow. Nasty business.

Thanks, Andrew. That yodeling is accieved by sticking my head out the window at 65kph. Good ear. I think that guitar on the left jazzes up the chorus, partly because of BiaB's pushes. I felt it was just another bump in the road. hehe

Thanks, Bob. Yep, I drive fast. Those tricks are likely just something accidental that comes out of this old mouth.

Marty,

You always put little clever things in your tunes! For me in this one it was the little yodel vocal lines and words interspersed throughout! Ole buddy, you manhandled that bass (very nice job)! All instrument choices worked for my taste, especially the pedal steel!
Marty, your songs are always entertaining all well worth the listeners time to enjoy!
Keep on rockin' TB

Hi, Marty.

This chugs along with a cool rhythm. Vocals are cool, and the lyrics as inventive as ever.

Love the upbeat sound! smile

In most cases, ageing leads to decay. Notable exceptions include a good wine, a fine cheese, and Marty Straub.
Nasty Bump is a great example of this. Keep them coming!

A Road Song. About the road!
I enjoyed the Ride (except for that bump).
Bass sounds good. Bill's steel, too..(really interesting solo).
Good mix.

HAHA, thanks, Ron. Thanks also for the nod on EZD. I really enjoy writing out the drum parts, and keeping only four limbs on the drummer --not to mention the percussion crew.

Thanks, Dan. I like what Bill added to the ride. The whole thing started when perusing BiaB Styles. The guitar sounded like it was saying Beep Beep. Fortunately the style wasn't good for a Wiley Coyote adventure, or that 50's song about a guy in a little Nash Rambler looking for second gear.


Enjoy whatever happens!

That is one cool song and we loved this last verse.
It shows how much being with the right co-pilot on life’s road can make a difference:
“When our way was blocked with curves
we learned to make the turns.
All the nasty bumps on our road we paved wtih love”

Enthusiastic cool vocals for the chug-a-lug vibe!

Nice bass (of course) in tone and notes and Bill’s pedal steel sounds excellent.
And the BiaB rhythm section was cooking.
Good drums too.
All sittin' well in the mix on our monitors.

Enjoyed it!

Hi Marty.

What a fantastic groove! I couldn't stop my feet from tapping. I love how you've used the extended metaphor! I also love the write, the arrangement and the stellar production. For me, your singing was the icing on a fine cake. The way you performed this and matched your vocals to the mood of the groove was fantastic. It's enthusiastic thumbs up from me!
