Excellent ME beat and sax-ing! Very enjoyable. The instrumental reminds me a little of Egyptian Hossam Ramzy's work when partnering with British Phil Thornton. WapBand- Thank you for listening and commenting. I wasn't familiar with Hossam Ramzy or Phil Thornton. Checked them out and enjoyed it alot. Thanks for pointing me in that direction.

https://soundclick.com/song/15314439 This is a revision of the Gershwin song I recently posted, But Not For Me. Much faster (and better, IMO), closer in BPM to the popular version by Chet Baker. I also wrote a second verse, I hope Ira Gershwin will forgive me. I tried to write it in his style, in hopes that he won't come and haunt me. RealTracks in style: ~~768:Bass, Acoustic, Jazz Sw 140 RealTracks in style: ~~771:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm Jazz Sw 140 RealTracks in style: ~~938:Guitar, Acoustic, Rhythm JazzFreddie Sw 140 RealDrums [in style:JazzBrushes: a: Brushes Swirling b: Brushes Busier Harmonica - Me Vocal - Me Lyrics Verse 1 by Ira They're writing songs of love, but not for me A lucky star's above, but not for me With love to lead the way I've found more clouds of gray Than any Russian play could guarantee I was a fool to fall and get that way Heigh-ho!, Alas! And also, lack-a-day Although I can't dismiss the memory of her kiss I guess she's not for me (Harmonica break) Verse 2 by Me The angels sing on high, but not for me Young moviegoers cry, but not for me We had our chance at love, two happy turtledoves But now it's boxing gloves For her and me There's other gals out there, I know it's true But what to say to them, I've not a clue For when I go to speak, I'm just a lovelorn geek Romance is not for me

Horses is a desert island album for me. Spare production is nonetheless rich and full. Great piano and cello. The river Spree - quite a travelogue your discography is becoming! Good lyrics as always.

Love that bassline! I've never heard anyone use Swam before, but you're definitely an adept. Thanx Chay. That bass line is very similar to the bass line in the song "Fever". I really like those Swam instruments.

Well, tbh, the phrase "Temperature's Rising" made me think of Lennon's Cold Turkey but obviously that's not it. Is Bob Dean right? Good, smoldering mood on this one. Bass was great, as was piano. One of your best, I think. Yes Bob Dean was right. The bass line is very similar to "Fever" and so are the finger snaps. I'm glad you liked it.

Hi All, Our latest is called Fly Redondo. I was listening to Redondo Beach The saddest song I ever heard Sometimes secrets are kept too well And the night becomes a blur I wanna run away, run away, run away with you I wanna fly away, fly away, fly away with you On New York streets the sirens don’t sleep They circle like hungry birds The woman upstairs is learning Coltrane tunes While taxis paint the curb I wanna run away, run away, run away with you I wanna fly away, fly away, fly away with you In old Berlin the evening comes too soon And settles on the river Spree A light comes on across the water And somehow that’s enough for me I wanna run away, run away, run away with you I wanna fly away, fly away, fly away with you I wanna run away, run away, run away with you I wanna fly away, fly away, fly away with you BIAB Tracks: 2475: Bass, Acoustic 1856: Cello, Background Production Notes: Bob Mic: Logitech Blue Yeti Bob Vocals: Logic Pro Bob Piano: Vediya Electric Joliz Mic: Audio Technica AT2020USB+ Joliz Vocals: GarageBand Waves Vocal Rider: All Vocals Pre-Production: Track Editing GarageBand & Logic Pro Izotope Nectar 3 Elements for Vocals Izotope Plasma for Instrument Tracks Processing Izotope 1970s Vinyl Processing Final Track Mix & Master: Logic Pro & Izotope Ozone 11 As always - thanks for listening!

Very gentle and warmly relaxing instrumental, Carl. I'd have titled it "Moon Day Prelude" or something similar with Moon in it.

B.D., My first impression was, "Wow, so you write lyrics like this, too?" It’s a really fun song that blends reggae and ska. Serious lyrics certainly wouldn't suit a track like this. Reggae has become popular in Japan lately. Personally, I prefer Latin music, so I feel a bit left out. Enjoyed my listen and watch a lot. Best regards. Shigeki Adachi Thank you for your kind words, Shigeki Adachi. Apparently, I should start my world tour in Japan (my wife also prefers Latin music)

A gentle and pretty relaxing song that calms me down a bit. For my taste, it could use a few more (small) dynamic changes, but it actually works just the way it is, so there’s no need to change anything. Enjoyed

Bob and Joliz, thank you for another lovely vignette. We always feel like we’re reading a short story. And we can’t get the characters off of our minds long after the song is over. We love this: “I saw her once in passing By a river down the line She looked right through me Like I was another time” Yours and Joliz’s blend really shines and the lap steel is perfect. Love the open mix. Hey, we are waiting for the compilation of short stories book! Oh and: “She had a map with coffee rings” What a line!!! Enjoyed it! J&B

Hi Mario. You are good at this incidental music. This one sounds movielike. Maybe you should call it something like "Night Crawler". Vic Thanx Vic. "Night Crawler" would be a good name for this song.
