Apologies for missing a few of your posts in the last 3 or 4 weeks. Had a bit of real life drama. Things seem to have settled a little at the moment so I managed to finish this one today. The band are ( I think, first time with all the 5's): Bass - 592 Banjo - 589 Drums - Country train brushes Guitar - 598 Fiddle - 596 Fiddle - 593 Vic https://on.soundcloud.com/zLu68If I Was © 2023 Vic Arnold If I was ... a little oak tree, I'd stand my ground over my roots. I'd grow as tall ... as I could be, to see for miles and spread my shoots. And if I fall, in a hurricane, I'd show my soul from whence I came. If I was ... a frigate bird with big wide wings to soar on high I'd ride the clouds ... around the world with songs to sing. You'd hear me cry. I'll tell the world to take good care of all I see and all that's there. If you were my lover. Only you for me. There'd be no other one climbing on my tree. And if I was ... a rambling man with good strong boots. I'd ramble on I'd trust myself ... Follow my plan to take me back, where I belong. And if you follow me my friend I'll stick with you until the end

Ah, yes. "...while you're making other plans." Hope your life is back to being as good as this song, Vic. Ha, great job with all the 5s, and they all did a great job turning this into a real gasser for this old geezer. A real hopper and foot stomper. Love it!!

Hi David. I was getting some strange sounds on the vocals. Turned out it was my foot tapping. I must learn to control my emotional feet. Thank you.

Hi Vic, I love bluegrass. It is such a unique and friendly sound. This is a great a song. You've obviously got quite a few songwriting and song-performing notches in your belt! The competence contained within this creation shines. I really enjoyed the journey  --Noel

Good description, Noel. Thank you. It’s a friendly and wholesome genre. Reminds me of my late grandparents singing together around the fire.

Wonderful! Cheered me right up, this morning. I want to write one, bluegrass style, as cheerful and as uplifting as this one. I most probably won't manage to do something like that justice, but you have  I defy anyone not to smile and tap their feet in time to the music, with this one  Hats off.

Vic, I’m a huge bluegrass fan and get the chance to play a bit around campfires in the mountains every summer. You did a fine job with the genre and I encourage you to explore it further. Well done, Tom

Excellent. The reverb on the count in clicks had me worried but that disappeared as soon as the song started. FAB.
