I love olde tyme coun-try Played by a steel string band Foot tappin, hand clappin, feel like dancin, let it happen We may never pass this way a-gain Drummer bounces up and down, sticks in the air Bangin out a big bad beat dancin in a chair Bass booming in the hall shaking the foundation Set the groove, make a move, deafen God's cre-ation I love olde tyme coun-try Played by a steel string band Foot tappin, hand clappin, feel like dancin, let it happen We may never pass this way a-gain
Rhythm guitar comping chords, lookin for a backbeat Lost his pick, feelin sick, half dead on his feet Lead is singin soarin high in glorious con-fusion Melo-dy got lost you see has to find a new one I love olde tyme coun-try Played by a steel string band Foot tappin, hand clappin, feel like dancin, let it happen We may never pass this way a-gain
If you see an ancient band, music getting out of hand Remember they're just warming up, big gig's coming soon enough High... in the sky......... I love olde tyme coun-try Played by a steel string band Foot tappin, hand clappin, feel like dancin, let it happen We may never pass this way a-gain I love olde tyme coun------try

Hi Richmac
Your production continues to improve with each post! My favourite section of this arrangement was when you brought the fiddle in. The whole presentation jumped over the proverbial bar when that happened. It made me wonder if maybe the fiddle could have come in a little earlier and maybe the mandolin could add to the mix where the fiddle now comes in.
All the best, Noel

cool tune. It was a fun listen.
I don't know that I personally would have chosen a gritty muted guitar on this.... probably a cleaner picked sound.... likely acoustic not electric.
I agree the fiddle really kicks it up a notch. It should have had that feel all the way through..... maybe even an old upright acoustic bass rather than electric....and drums, IMHO, you could really do without them on this. That would have given it more of a "front porch" picking and grinning feel..... but that's just my 2 cents.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Hi Noel - I keep experimenting. I look at my posts as demos and when there's enough (and I learn to produce better) will redo them to a CD. Probably. Will then incorporate these good ideas and suggestions you all give me. Listened to your co-write song. Enjoyed. Extremely high standard.
Cheers Richard

Thanks Herb Yeah if it's old time I'm aiming at I should stick to more trad instrumentation. What happened was I couldn't resist doing it as a rock boogie 'Georgia Satellites' type thing ( enjoy mixing up the real track styles ) and though I liked it realized it was not appropriate for the theme. So changed it back but left a bit much of the rock in there. Like the idea of no drums, trad bass. Thanks for your ideas. Richard
