(warning headphone users, you might think my solos are a little hot in the mix they sounded good in the DAW but once posted they sounded a just a bit hotter) This is for the ones who think a decent song needs to have a guitar solo (Dave (Blue Attitude), Peter F. and all youse out there) Also, it's for J&B. I know that ya'll are busy clearing trees and brush This is Janice's to record anytime she wants (this is just a rough demo) As always thanks for listening, comments welcome, hope you like it http://kennyleverett.bandcamp.com/track/just-to-love-somebodyJust To Love Somebody © 2017 Kenny Leverett 09102017 Oh honey Tell me that you understand You know it’s true, so true Nothing ever goes to plan Tell to leave Beg me to stay Call me a fool I’m yours either way Well I’m standing Hanging outside your door Don’t say that it’s over Or that you don’t need me no more Tell to leave Beg me to stay Call me a fool I’m yours either way Well I know it’s not enough Just to love somebody They surely, surely Have to love you back It’s never enough Just to love somebody Gotta keep that love Runnin right on track Don’t let the sun Let the sun go down Cause you’re gonna miss me When I’m not around Tell to leave Beg me to stay Call me a fool I’m yours either way Honey Well I know it’s not enough Just to love somebody They surely, surely Have to love you back It’s never enough Just to love somebody Gotta keep that love Runnin right on track Never enough Just to love somebody Drums Nashville Shuffle Bass Midi CR_Bonnie Piano 2728 Blues Shuffle Mike Guitar 1585 Texas Blues Rock Sol My Guitar Logic Pro vintage stack (Marshall) 4x12 speakers

Yeah! You had me hooked right from that opening riff.
Man, you are on a roll lately, just one good song after another!
Love your vocal in this, just the right amount of grit for the material.
Guitar sounded great, I enjoyed hearing you lay down some nice licks!
Good stuff Kenny, enjoyed the listen!

Kenny,
That is one hot vocal! You are giving Lawrence a run-for-his-money these days! Awesome!
Nice guitar work. The level works, I think - lively, has great feeling...
Nice rocker. (again...what a vocal!).
(I'm not a fan of a hard panned piano).
Excellent listen.

What a tune, Kenny! I love the groove of this one, it's easy to move to and the arrangements are flawless too. Plus, I found the lyrics to be very engaging! Thanks so much for sharing

Kenny,
A very good rocker and not much to change to these ears, though no doubt Janice could add some cool harmonies on the chorus.
Your vocals get more edgy all the time and this one has a real one-take feel that needs no tweaking.
The solo is sweet!
Robert

Good stuff Kenny, enjoyed the listen! Thanks Dave, much appreciated glad you like my guitar licks, you and Peter are much better players than me. I used to play thru a Marshall years and many clubs ago, it's got a lot of bite. Long live guitar solos!!!

fj thanks fj, glad that you like the levels, I like your ideas on mixing piano, I may redo this one, but I like the live stage raw sound so it may stay this way. I always appreciate your support and kind words

Hello, Kenny
Very powerful tune!
As many others said, you are a real Rocker.
Your vocal is always very nice.
The opening riff is very cool.
As Peter said, along with the excellent vocal & nice guitar solos it's just a rocking good song.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.

Hello Kenny,
How can a song this hot be so cool???
What a great listen! This is a great song. That intro was splendid ... caught me immediately. Love the bass line - perfect for a great Blues Rock tune. Your gritty voice sparkles, as usual.
No problem with the mix. Sounds fine to me.
Loved it! So cool it has frost hanging off of it!
Alan

Kenny, Another strong rock and roll write. Very infectious. Great vocals. Good job man. Kind of Van Morrison (early Van.)

Kenny, this is a winner all the way. Great rocker that had me from the git-go. Super chops man! Your vocal is top shelf for this genre.
This is a keeper for sure!

Somebody mentioned Van Morrison whom we've listened to for years. Yeah, you might be morphing into him This song really has a lot of his vocal feel...particularly of his recordings over the last decade. If there was a genre called "infectious rock" you would own it! "Also, it's for J&B. I know that ya'll are busy clearing trees and brush This is Janice's to record anytime she wants (this is just a rough demo)" Rough demo? Hahaha...this sounds like a polished rocker to me. Maybe add some harmony but, man, your lead is nailed. And you ain't no slacker on the axe. Fun!!!! J&B PS: On the computer all day so far for the first time in days but now back to the woods

Review - Loops-with-Style PAK 2 for Band-in-a-Box® 2020
"Dr. Dave" Walker is at it again! You may remember his recent reviews of both Band-in-a-Box 2020 for Mac and Xtra Styles PAK 9 - now he has something to say about our Loops-with-Style PAK 2 - check it out: Click here to read...
With money being tight for most musicians, this is a wonderful gift for those on a limited budget. At $29, it offers months and years of fun and experimentation, bringing many ideas to fruition as songs with enough variation so that your audience doesn’t jump to "aw, that's a computer!" while still keeping the power of the software in your hands.
-"Dr. Dave" Walker
Thank you again Dr. Dave for the great review!
