There's No Time on Soundclound
There's No Time on YouTube

Here's one that laments or acknowledges the lack of time. Of course it's a result of all the things that are currently in my life that distract from music. Mine and yours! My priority here is listening to your stuff because I've heard mine so many times, and although I read every comment, I may not get to reply to the last few. When driving I always try to listen to your stuff, too. It's great driving around listening to Floyd Jane, Janice & Bud, and recently David Snyder streaming through the speakers. Of course my favorite is all the Blue Attitude stuff. If anyone else has a channel on Spotify, please let me know.

There's No Time

There's no time like the present to present the lack of time.
Ya gotta get up early on Saturday just to not fall behind.
There's no time for confessions if you've gotta stand in line.
You cannot get things done when there's no time.

We're heading t'ward a future that out does our fantasy,
and we're gonna sing and play all our time away. What a lovely way to be.
We can't begin a new life at the old one's finish line.
It's hard to get things done when there's no time.

BR: Every time I see you I just want to hold you close to my heart,
Maybe Time will free you and we can make the very most from the start.
So then every fight we've ever had will disappear like a pet rock fad,
We could erase makes you sad.
Extra days could make things fine, but there's no time.

I'd like to finally have you push the past a bit behind.
I want to keep you mine, but there's no time.
I'd like to draw the line but there's no time.
I'd push the past behind but there's no time.

If I get the choice then I always first watch the video :-).

Very solid song guys! Excellent vocals. But I have to say that the Hammond organ almost steals the show for me. Those licks, how functional!

Dave always does a great job on the solo. This one is no exception (and comes really close to UFO's Michael Schenker's sound!).

Rob

Marty you had me from the 1st measure!

Great collaboration.

Strong vocal in an excellent mix.

Loved it.

Now that was fun! Great song. The organ was cool, and you really rocked the bass. Another clever wright. I really liked that line of every fight disappearing like a pet rock fad. Picked some good rhythm instruments too and the lead guitar was top notch. Never knew the blues could make you so happy!

Cool song Marty,
I would venture that the rhythm guitar seems either too far panned or too loud but that is looking for nits.
Your songs & voice make me want to see/hear you in a nice small blues bar.
Bell wrings another good one from the neck (sorry - bad pun).
Thanks for the warmth.

Marty...another very cool song...smart lyrically and a great blues groove...but do you actually mean that my pet rock (Petra) is out of vogue...oh well...other than that obviously bigoted line...nice song...you and Dave are a formidable pair to say the least...how do you keep coming up with these great concept tunes? and I love the video but you know that... what you don't know is so did Petra...you feel bad now...don't you!!

Marty ...

Love these relatively slow shuffle blues. It's just a slow, steady swing that feels so graceful. You and Dave have given us some terrific music since ya'll got together.

Super song and Dave's playing was spot on - isn't it always!!??

Cool concept and perfectly executed on all fronts. Nice!

Alan

Hi Marty and Dave
Cool song with an interesting lyric
Sounds very good
Vocally it fits great
Together with the video I like it even better
Great work
Many greetings
Andi ;-)

Me, too, Rob. Thanks. Interesting that you mention the B3. I always think of Dave as the main interest in the song, and now I'm thinking maybe the organ is detracting from that. I agree that it so good though, and may overuse it or leave it a bit too high in the mix before getting Dave track. Thanks, I'll be more vigilant.


Thanks, Mario. That's why it's a good idea to start off with a guitar into.


Hi, Brad! The blues has made me happy since I was a little kid hanging out in my uncles nursing home boiler room with the coolest janitor ever. It was always best when one of the orderlies came in to blow harp. They were always their happiest lost in the blues.


Thanks, Ray. Keep looking. I thoroughly appreciate your ears and taste. Nits like that are the very things that distract the mind. They eat earworms.

Howdy Marty....

I agree with other comments.

This is a good write.
Good mix and well performed.
Some damn fine axe playing too by Dave.

Well done!

Just had a 2nd listen - still sounds fantastic!

Marty,

A good write. A BUNCH of good lines...

"There's no time like the present to present the lack of time.
Ya gotta get up early on Saturday just to not fall behind."

....knock me over.

This is the BabuMusic signature sound.
That vocal that speaks-to-the-listener.
That Buttery Bass keeping a solid rhythm.
That BlueAttitude guitar lifting it higher.

Good video. Good mix.
A song to listen to while driving (put it on your list! )

I had forgotten about this little gem, it was a while ago that I did the guitar for it I think.

Excellent song, so well written as per usual!

Thanks to everyone that mentioned my part, it was a fun song to play on.

Marty,

That was some fine songwriting and musicianship by both you and Dave! You always produce highly entertaining music and I enjoyed it all the way through! You and Dave make such a great team!

Thanks, Torrey

Good one Marty! Excellent lines and I agree...there isn't enough time to do it all!

Ah, my sensitive Dan. There is no intended slant on your relationship with Petra. It was the fad that faded. My Smokey Stoner and your Petra should meet.


Thanks, Alan. Those shuffles are my favs too --fast or slow.


Thank you, Andi. I posted your Paradise song on FB and got a ton of good responses.

Marty & Dave,

This is excellent. Love the message, vocal and whole package!

Bob

Marty, you had me from "I love David Snyder."

No man, just kidding. Ha ha.

Really, this is blues at its best and you guys are the blues champs in my book. But, come to think of it, there are a lot of blues champs on this forum.

ANYWAY, you guys are AMONG the elite crowd of blues champs both here and on the Internet in general.

I love this stuff man.

Hi BabuMusic,

Nice orchestration and very pleasant atmosphere. The mix is ​​well done. Ozone lends itself wonderfully well. I appreciated.

Kindly regard

Firstly with J&B a good shuffle is tough to beat!

“It's hard to get things done when there's no time. “

And yet it seems like we have more time to do things BUT the time is going by too quickly to do them. (Bud here: I'll credit Janice with that Zen like contradiction!)

We like how your lyric addresses the issues of our lack of and inevitability of time.

Excellent vocal, smooth bass (Bud says he wants to play like that when he grows up), Dave’s nice, fat tone on his guitar and a great choice of BiaB band mates.

How did you find the time to make that video? As always cool imagery supports the lyric and that's what it's all about!

Very timely indeed!

J&B

Marty,
Nice one! Excellent message which I can absolutely relate to
Ace vocals! Everything sounds better when Dave takes guitar - very cool opening.
"There's no time for confessions if you've gotta stand in line." good one.
Mix is very clean, sounds great on my AKGs. Neat video too. Thank you for sharing,
Misha.

Howdy, Chulaivet! Thanks for stopping by and your comments, Wayne.


Haha. That's cool, Al. I almost always circle back to your songs too.


Thanks so much, Floyd. You, sir, fill out my driving song list just fine.


Thanks for everything, Dave. Yeah, I have 4 or 5 songs ready to flood this forum.

Sounds like you're having fun here. That helps a song along.

Vic

Thanks, Torrey. That's high praise coming from one of the true masters.


Well, thanks for taking the time to listen and comment, Dewey. It means a lot --even more just for that reason.


Thanks so much, Bob.


You have rocketed into My Favorite Humans book, David. For so many reasons. Thanks, and I DO love ya, man.

Clever lyrics, Marty.
Sounds like you had fun with this.

Vic

Okay, the pet rock line was worth the price of admission! I have to admit that being retired, I have plenty of free time and so I had to imagine my life a few years back to get into the gist of your song. You always write a good lyric and this was another fine one. The vocal was excellent, too, and Dave's guitar was icing. And of course, your bass work is nonpareil. You seem to be able to turn out great work, one right after the other. Wish I could do that. Keep it up, bassmeister!

Found this one a bit late...and I like it. A lot.

Great blues with cool lyrics we all can relate to, and you've got a really good guitar player for your song.

It has a great vibe, and yes, as others already said, perfect for driving your car.

Thanks, Derochette! I appreciate you mentioning the musical atmosphere. You are so polished in that arena.


Thanks you guys!! Bud, I hear no contradiction in Janice's sage words. And don't ever grow up, Bud. We wouldn't recognize you. Janice, our granddaughter has a mountain bike and she wants to grow up to be just like you. A great singer who knows the fun of flying..


Hello, Misha, and thanks for your kind comment.



Thanks, Vic. So much appreciated. Music is the funnest thing.

Finally there was some time to comment Good message, music and self-expression is a nice way to spend your time away. The band rocks, good work with vocals, bass and the solo guitar.

Janne

Hi Bob! Thank you.


Thank, BD. Yeah, Dave always fits in the best stuff.


Thank you, Janne.

Cool intro. Love the bassline with the drum shuffle beat. Very cool. Excellent vocal and lyric. Dave's guitar was excellent as well.

Always love to hear your stuff Marty!!!! Next to Janice, you're on of my favorite singers on the forum.....so natural full of personality!!! BTW, I am also on Spotify and always looking for listeners. If you look up "Greg Johnson", my profile has the old looking piano photo. Great stuff from you here!! Take care. Greg

Speaking of no time... I'm super-late on getting on the train for this song!

Starts out with a rocking guitar, so I checked which RealTrack you used to get it to sound so good... and of course, it's Dave Bell.

That explains it!

Only then did I read the notes.

Fun listen!
