HI ROG ...

The song left me, also, with that cheerful feel, as you so kindly mentioned. I hadn't considered that it might have a greater reach than here. Thanks so much for the kind words. I'll pass your greeting on to Di. Wishing you the very best. Please be safe.

Janne ...

Thank you so much. I truly enjoyed your review. I never thought of it as an indie sound, but you might be right! Again, thanks so much. best to you. Be safe ...

Hi Scott ...

Glad the song amused you along the way. And I mean that in a sincere and positive way. Just about all genres of music have something good in them if performed well. I just let myself get carried away with whatever pops into my mind. Thanks a bunch! Best to you and please be safe ...

Thanks for the music, Alan and send my best wishes to Di,

Hi Hans ...

And that is a very joyful review! Thank for the extremely nice comments. And yes, a nice Gypsy-style vocal would be a nice addition. I just don't know anyone who can do it!

Best wishes and be safe ...

Hello Ray ...

Hope all is well down under. We're doing okay here in Alabama, for the most part. Thanks for the nice words. Sometimes I choose poorly for the tracks, sometimes it get it right. Glad this one works nicely. Thanks for letting me know.

WOW.

Howdy, Floyd!

I'm never sure how to reply to your comments when they are so nice and supportive. I hope a very sincere "Thank You!" works. Because you do humble me with your words.

Best to you & yours. I'll give your greeting to Di. We both appreciate that.

You are a testimony to how much can be done with BiaB alone. Amazing.

Quite the mashup indeed. We were struck by how melodic that fiddle sounded
especially not to be a solo RT.

As Janice said, "It's a happy song!" smile

Well done Al!

Hi Al. Nice acoustic version. Funny how we think alike. I also have a song called "Nobody's Business". I just added the words "Ain't" and gave it an old Motown style.

Howdy Folks!

Thank ya so much for all those kind and humbling comments. And yeah, I was taken by surprise when I listen to that fiddle track. I had listen to 3 or 4 prior to that one, but immediately decided on the one I chose after just 10 - 15 seconds of listening.

Glad you liked it ... thanks for telling me. Take care and be safe ...

Thanks so much, Henry. Your comments always put a smile on my face!

I went over and listened to the link you provided ... terrific flashbacks as I listened! The MoTown sounds of the 60s and 70s are some of the best music I've ever listened to. The Temptations, Four Tops, Marvin Gayt, Sam Cook, etc. You really captured the sound!

Again, thank you for your very nice comments!

Best to you. Be safe, my friend ...

I'm always amazed at how many awesome musicians are hidden in BiaB.

You've done a really nice job finding them and getting them to play together well.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?
