The Right Track (VIDEO) The Right Track (AUDIO ONLY) As Steve Earle once said "sometimes your hometown brings you down..." I wrote the lyric; floyd tweaked it, turned a third verse into a bridge, created the melody and Janice did her vocal thing. Thanks big time to floyd for helping with the mix, BGV's and the use of held chords. We appreciate your time to watch/listen and as always comments are most welcome! Janice: lead vocal floyd: background vocals Bass: RT 1036 Northern Rock Drums N’ville ev 8th Guitar Solo: RT 1167 Rock Ballad Brent (the intro was comped from two of many re-generations as was the solo). Guitar Electric Rhythm: RT 841 Rhythm Pop Ballad Slow Gritty Guitar electric Rhythm: RT 1169 Soloist Rock Medium Brent /used to create held held chords via the held option Guitar Acoustic Rhythm: RT 1037 Rhythm Northern Rock Ballad Piano Rhythm: RT 1725 Rhythm / also used to create the held chord piano track Mixed in Logic Pro X using Ozone (mastering) Alloy 2 and Nectar. The Right Track © 2016 Bud Merritt and floyd jane too long in this town, too long in shadow roads lead out, where do they go? this might be someone's idea of good old days not mine i'm parting ways Chorus i'm leaving some might think on a wing and a prayer but there's got to be peace between here and somewhere sun on my face, wind at my back i'm finally... on the right track day by day, time gets shorter while my bucket list just runs over some things age well like a fine old wine but a spirit chained will die in time (so...) Chorus Bridge friends say slow down don't go but what the hell could they know i got boots older than most of them and I ain't leaving on a whim Chorus J&B

Hi Janice & Bud, Wonderful song I always enjoying listening to your songs! - The guitar solo bridge has a nice tone. - Is the footage self made too? Thank you very much Joe for the kind remarks. Yes, we created the video using iMovie. I enjoy photo editing and use a variety of apps to try and get the images to have a similar look and to support the imagery of the song. All of the images we use are public domain or shots that we took ourselves. Thanks again! J&B PS We always credit PG Music in our videos. Hope it might grab you a customer or two!

Bud Janice & Floyd I "discovered" this a while ago - it now has the feel of one of those songs you know & look forward to when it plays. It has a great melody, and is beautifully performed. Love everything about it.

Bud Janice and Floyd,
You have really excelled yourselves on this one! I liked everything about it. Great production and sound and catchy melody.
Janice your voice is like velvet and when Floyd joins in for the harmonies it's just stunning.
I also loved Floyd's vocal sound on the "don't go" bit near the end.
Superb, Rec

Good work guys, solid standing arrangement, cool lyrics and a beautiful vocal of Janice. We especially liked the choruses, Floyd does a great job here with a subtle mixed harmony, which has some very interesting notes in it. Bud, these lyric videos seem to come more and more easy to you, nice one!

Glad you liked that line - it's something I've said for years about our younger friends  Thanks for mentioning the vocals and particularly for mentioning floyd's BGV's. He did a great job! We appreciate it! J&B

Rob & Anne-Marie This is the best to date IMHO. You three are always on the right track.

Nice job to all.
Good job on the songwriting.
The production was pretty good too. I like the comped solo/fills. Mostly they are tasty and fit nicely.
Excellent.
