Hi All,

Hope everyone is well.

I thought I would share a new arrangement / recording of a song I wrote some years back.

This is called Lucinda Songs.

I can hear you sing Ventura
With my mind in a restful place
No matter the news of the day
I could drift away in space
Got one hand on the rear view
And the moonlight in my eyes
The window’s half way down
It’s hours till sunrise

And you don’t owe me something sweet
At the point we lose the sound
Those Lucinda songs will cool my mind
Should our lives become unbound

I could contemplate the outcome
With some futuristic view
Ventura’ s on the radio
I will let those waves come through
Got your voice inside my head
And the words fall all around
The ache of night has passed
It’s hours till sundown

And you don’t owe me something sweet
At the point we lose the sound
Those Lucinda songs will cool my mind
Should our lives become unbound

Hi Bob
Enjoyed my listen. Evocative lyrics, nice progression and that baritone guitar lends a real Lucinda vibe.
Regards,
Leon

Bob,
Very poetic. Nice, not too busy arrangement, which leaves ample space to hear lyrics. Thank you for sharing.

Misha.

We are HUGE 20+ year Lucinda fans so it was exciting to see your title.

And then we listened ... Wow!

Man, did you ever capture the softer side of her. Love the "Sweet" reference also.

Your vocal evokes the feel of many of her songs and your
production does the same.

No need to parse things out. This is a treat for everybody and us Lucinda fans in particular.

Love it!

J&B


PS Coincidentally we just finished an intentional Lucinda style song.
Albeit her harder side.

Bob, I wasn't familiar with Lucinda W, so I had to listen to her a bit after listening to your song, then I went back and listened to your tribute song again. Love the imagery, references (both lyrical and stylistically). Really nice track!

It's good to hear from you again, Bob. This is lovely and spacious. Your gritty, fragile vocals exhibit the soft-side of this lyric. It's really all that it needs to be and supported just as much. Hugely enjoyed here.

Cool stuff, as always. I like the vibrato guitar. I remember when that and reverb were the only guitar effects available.

Nice work.

Bob,

This was good the first time around. Just as good this time.

You really OWN that BAND. Sounds so "right", tight. Good performance. Good mix.

Enjoyed, again.

What a nice surprise Bob. So good to hear from you. Love this song. Cool guitar and excellent vocal and lyric. Well done

Great to hear you back at it again Bob! Man, do you ever know how to paint a picture with a set of lyrics! Thanks, T

Leon,

Thanks so much.

Bob

Misha,

I appreciate that - thanks.

Bob

First time hearing it, not real familiar with her, but some people that I respect really like her. Regardless, this had all the things I love about your tunes: great vocal, sparse but poetic lyrics, and just as evocative as can be. Great work as usual.

Bob

A poetic pretty arrangement with your unmistakable vocal style.

Really enjoyable (and love that baritone guitar).

Great to hear a new (old) one from you.

Peter

Great song, simple but with a good vibe to it, and the baritone guitar just gives it that extra umph!!

Janice & Bud,

Thank you!

Bob

Excellent, Bob!

You have such a unique and instantly recognizable style, man, I just love everything you do.

Good to see you posting here again

Tano,

Thanks so much.

Bob

Tangmo,

Much appreciated - thank you.

Bob

Hi Bob,

I missed you for some time. Nice to hear you are around again. And not just 'around', but with this nice sweet song.
you performed very well in it, with your familiair sounding voice!
To my regret I don't know Lucinda, but reading your lyrics and the post of J&B, it must have been an interesting person.
Well done!

Hans

Herb,

Thanks so much.

Bob

Floyd,

Thanks very much.

Bob

Lucinda. What a beautiful tribute, Bob. A wonderful production and a smooth vocal.

I love Lucinda. She's one of my all time favorites. I try to see her every time she comes to my area. That electric guitar sounds just like something on one of hers songs. Good lyrics. Haunting vocals. Nice one.

Scott,

Thank you!

Bob

Bob, I think this is your best to date. Your instrumentation is perfect for your vocal and your mix is spot on.

You did an outstanding job on this one!

Torrey,

I appreciate that - thank you.

Bob, I have always loved your poetic lyrics and this one is no exception. That tremolo guitar is perfect for this. Good job on the performance and production, Tom

As always you give us a very nice and suiting vocal performance. What is not to like? Really good song that I enjoyed a lot!

Will

Thank you!

Bob
