Hi All. Just a bit of lockdown-madness-inspired Rock from me and Eddie - it's probably about 50-50. The file crossed the Atlantic more times than British Airways has done recently and I've lost track of what's in there. There are a couple of RT keyboards which Eddie added, an acoustic RT buried in there somewhere, and the other guitars are mine. Interestingly, the drum samples this time are from a 1980s Simmons kit which a friend had - Simmons were used on almost every rock track in the 80s. Eddie's singing the lead and I'm on the BVs. There's not much to the lyrics which are a bit banal anyway, but if you can't make them out I'll list them later. In case there was any doubt, this is a song about a car journey. BETTER CALL YOUR MAMADon't take it too seriously - we didn't. ROG

ROG & Eddie,
I turned up the spoken word intro and the drums crashing have damaged my drums!
Very good rollicking fun- loose backing with great guitar breaks cutting in.
Fit to purpose gents; well done.

A HUGE sound. Really filling my speakers. And nicely spread.
Excellent mix. The piano sits nicely. The guitar loud and proud.
Good groove. Good job.

ROG & Eddie,
I turned up the spoken word intro and the drums crashing have damaged my drums!
That was my homage to Jim Steinman! LOL!!! The initial intro went on for 2 minutes longer!

ROG & Eddie ,,,
Just so dang cool! I love this stuff! To my ears, it has somewhat of an early Garage Band feel. I like how the music is spread horizontally across the spectrum. It fills the space completely without the slightest hint of clutter.
A great, fun-filled journey that put a big smile on this face. totally loved it!
Best to both of you. Be safe, wherever you are ...
Alan

Lots of fun, and don't we all need a bit of fun these days?
Guitars sound great, as does the mix.
Well done!

Robert Hi Robert, I do hope your eardrums are recovering now! Many thanks for the listen and review. "Rollicking" is great - I couldn't ask for more. Cheers, ROG.

And the irony is that we will likely never meet! Maybe the distance is WHY we work well together. When I work with people locally they get on my &@^%#$% nerves by the end of the second session.

Yes, it's a team which has stood the test of time. I think it's because Eddie is such a
quiet, unassuming sort of guy, who's so easy to work with.
