Sock Hop

A three hour Sunday quickie!

Circa - 1958
Place - the high school gym
Reason - a sock hop
Back in those days dances were held in the gym but you had to remove your shoes, i.e. hense the name sock hop. So picture yourself back in those greaser days strolling on the dance floor. For those whom don't know what the strolling dance was google it. I tried to emulate the sound of that era.

BiaB style - Blues 12/8 - Slow 12/8 Blues
I deleted the guitar and strings
Bass - Ample Bass - Upright - Walking Bass
Drums - SSD-5 - Classic Classic Vintage
Piano - EZ2 Keys - Upright - Saloon - I slightly detuned it as many school pianos were not perfectly in tune

I am playing both the rhythm and lead guitar parts on my Casio Strat and via my breath and keyboard controller the Swam Tenor Sax.

As always all comments are welcomed.

I haven't lost all of my marbles but there is a small hole in the bag someplace!
