Ok, I will admit I passed over listening to this song for a few days, because of the title. BUT PLEASE HEAR ME OUT...it's not the the title is bad. I actually think it's GREAT! All I can come up with was the two concepts seemed so far apart to me that my simple brain didn't want to "go there." I have no idea. I will tell you flat out I am stupid sometimes. That's as blunt as I can say that!

Now, what DID get me to eventually listen to it (just now) was seeing it was from YOU. I have always liked and respected you, so because of that, I gave it a listen. I AM SO GLAD I DID!

I REALLY liked this song. It's stuck in my head right now as I'm typing this. What a cool feel, and fun song. It really is different than what I expected, in EVERY right way!

Thanks for sharing this! VERY well done!

Now I am going to work on my open-minded-ness! Gotta keep that in check so I don't lose out on gems like this one!

Dreadlocks all the way, and the sleigh-bells fading in the background - Nice

Great mix and great fun song

Tom,

You didn't happen to mee a guy named John White when you were there, did you? Negril has always been a little secret - and what a beach!

Most excellent all the way around. Not using the
typical Reggae drums gives it a very cool hybrid
feel.

And you DELIVERED the vocal!

Fun!

J&B,

Thanks for the listen. That actually has three separate drum tracks on it. There are two different Reggae loops behind the standard kit.

Waiting for the next I75 collab.......... grin


Merry Christmas!
