I did enjoy it. And there's great stuff coming out of your forum posts. Yep, keep it up peep!!!

I imagine you are a fun fellow to be out and about with judging by the way you totally immerse yourself into your songs.

David,

One thing is for sure, you perform with 200% commitment! The amount of energy you brought to the forum with this one is enormous.

From a craftsmanship perspective, I love the way your chorus moves lyrically; the rhyme scheme and the repetition are sensational. I have a feeling that if you could apply this song's format to a 21st century theme that appealed to women and men, old and young, you'd have a major hit on your hands!

All the best,
Noel

Noel said it right! Amazing energy. Love the feel of the band (reminded me of the WHO when the guitars started). Fun and clever lyrics and great raw rock feel! Cool stuff David!! Take care. Greg

Thanks Noel!!! I will think about your suggestion! Since I basically just stepped up to the microphone and belted this one out flailing my arms at the old Tele, I have no idea how to make different lyrics but I will sure give that some thought. Ha ha. I was just playing some rock and roll but it is worth considering. Thanks!!!

Thank you Charlie. If you ever want to hang you just let me know!!!

Thanks Greg! I appreciate it. I totally dig my new Pak. Wow, is there some cool stuff in 2016. Y'all been checking it out?

Band in a Box 2016 is outrageous!!!!!

Nice and Rocking David!
What do you think of the new RTs? We think they are great.
We definitely think that the audiophile edition renders the true BiaB sound. smile
We bet you agree!

This song made me want to go and pick up my guitar from my son's house and start playing again. I enjoyed your energy and I would think that you would want to only do one take on this one or at least wait a few hours. Enjoyed!

Great kick@ss sound.

Hi ...

Good to "meet" you. Definitely rocks. Rock with a country theme. Power, energy, it's already been said. We'll just echo all of that ... cuz it's true! Thanks for a cool listen ...

David,

All that as missing was a raucous solo, sax or guitar.
Reminded me very much of Springsteen.

ave a good rockin' Christmas

My goodness David. That was quite a surprise. I am not too sure why since your contributions are always so varied. Enjoyed the listen very much!

David, This one has vibe plus going on. I kept thinking Mellencamp. It rocks! A good time feel good rocker. Nice job. Tom

David,

My favorite of yours that I've heard. Your writing in this is tighter - and has some real originality to it. You are saying familiar things, yet keeping it fresh.

Sounds like a lost Stones cut..

Enjoyed it. Good mix.

Thanks Tommy! I have been enjoying your new ones as well!!!

Hey Thanks a lot Guenter. I just checked out Fanfare. Nice piece of work!!!
Posted By: David Snyder Re: Girl Town: BIAB 2016 Audiophile - 12/13/15 07:08 PM
Thanks Alyn,

I appreciate that! I will have to grab a hold of my sax player next time!! smile

Hey Thanks Alan and Di. I appreciate that!!!

Hey, I went yo your website and tried to listen to some songs and I couldn't get them to stream. I wonder if that is on my end. Bummer. I will try again in a few minutes with a different browser. I am using Chrome.
Posted By: David Snyder Re: Girl Town: BIAB 2016 Audiophile - 12/13/15 07:17 PM
Hey folks, thanks!!!!!

I LOVE BIAB 2016!!!!!!!!!!!! IT IS UNREAL.

Have checked out the new indexing on styles? It is mind-boggling. And the TRACKS. WOW.

Yes, Audiophile is the way to go. No turning back now.
Posted By: David Snyder Re: Girl Town: BIAB 2016 Audiophile - 12/13/15 07:19 PM
I say get that guitar out, plug it in to a Twin Reverb, Marshall Stack or Mesa Boogie and turn it up to 11.

It is the Fountain of Youth.

You will become 16 again.

Do it now man!!!!

smile

Thanks Joanne! I visited your website and I really love your music and the amazing production quality. What a gorgeous voice you have.

I especially liked "I Will Always Be Here." Reminded me of a Carly Simon style song in that it is tight as a drum structure-wise and exquisitely professional--masterful.

Thanks Mario!!! I appreciate that!!! Is Kick A$#2 Japanese for Kick A$#2???

Excellent tune. Jumped right out the gate. Loved the vocal and lyric
Posted By: David Snyder Re: Girl Town: BIAB 2016 Audiophile - 12/13/15 09:45 PM
Thanks Scott! I really love your stuff on SoundCloud. You get a great tone out of your guitars. The lead track First Dance is gorgeous, I love the sparse use of effects (if any.) I assume that tune is the Les Paul? At any rate, great channel. You can really play man!!

Yeah, there's a problem getting the titles to associate with the MP3s. Wix and I are working on it> I, too, use Chrome. Haven't tried to get in the site with Explorer or Edge yet.

I did notice that it will often stream the songs id you wait 2 or 3 minutes and then refresh the page. Sometimes but not always. Will get gack to you as soon as its resolved. Thanks for trying ... we sure do appreciate that!

Well,

I finally got some songs to work on your your website, now, though some are still glitchy. I got the ones to play on Page 2. Very nice!!! Love the jazz feel. They are ALL very well done and arranged. I will be spending some "quality time" on that site and soundcloud for sure!!! smile Great stuff!!
Posted By: Al-David Re: Girl Town: BIAB 2016 Audiophile - 12/14/15 12:21 AM
Thanks, David! Glad you enjoyed the ones you were able to hear. Next week, I am going to re-associate every song title with the corresponding MP3 ... gonna do it all manually ... sounds like too much fun!

We do a lot of Smooth R&B, Jazz and Country. I played lead guitar in a few country bands for about 50 years (I'm almost 70 now).

Since you are with NSAI, you might know a friend of mine ... Marc-Alan Barnette. Pretty cool guy that's done pretty well for himself in Nashville.

Thanks again! Best to you ...

Alan

Well I got into town down on music row
Took a look around see which way the streets go
Saw a cute little honey in a Nashville bungalow
Dang them cut off jeans are tight
The way things wiggle it just ain’t right
Burning my eyes gonna lose my sight
And I just can’t wait 'til Saturday night



Sounded like you were channeling Jim Morrison

Quote:
Well, I just got into town about an hour ago
Took a look around, see which way the wind blow
Where the little girls in their Hollywood bungalows

Are you a lucky little lady in the city of light
Or just another lost angel, city of night
City of night, city of night, city of night, woo, c'mon


even the groove fits really close in the verse. I don't know if you're familiar with the Doors. At first I thought this was a parody of LA Women, ... you know.... Nashville Women.....

A mash-up of Dylan, Melloncamp, Morrison, Earl when it comes to styles.

Cool rocking tune.

Herb,

Ah, you got the joke!!! Good for you!!! smile

Yes, the intro was an intentional reference/allusion but the rest of the song and Chorus veers off....

Thanks Peter!!!

Great rockin'
A mix of Stones and Dylan (like a rolling stone)
I enjoyed it.
