If BiaB had RealVoices you would own this genre.

Thanks so much for sharing!

This has totally inspired me. Thanks for sharing, and great job on the hybrid! laugh


Many thanks Ember.

It's the wildest, daddy-o!

Nuff said? Solid, you sinners! Whaddya say we swing through that door an' hit the floor!

Yes, Rob, my comment is that you did, indeed,
succeed in the recapture without falling to the
pitfalls common in the "cover," as it is called.
People today would jump right out on to the dance
floor and start in a'twistin'.

To me, the key was the use of the accoustic strum
to set the comping pace. That, as we recall, was the
60's folk innovation that marked the transistion from
be-bop to folk, later to folk rock.

The vocal and settings reminds of the dance hall,
even radio, sounds of an earlier generation, 30's and 40's.

These two elements bracket the foundation, the
1950's "Do-whop, Whoppa-diddywhoppa / Do-whop,
Whoppa-diddywhoppa-do-whop...(rpt.) Infectious.

Hope this analysis contributes to development
of the themes.

Hello, Rob

A very fun tune!
So straight.
This is exactly rockabilly.
Your vocal is just fitted to this type of songs.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.
