Tom that nice bass riff at very beginning got me hooked somewhere in there I was thinking this would make a good Fellini movie soundtrack ~2:44 cool intro into new section I lost track of all the different instruments but the theremin stood out. Oh and also the piano player. He's really good.
-
John I really like the unique creative touches in your songs. Wish you the best of success.
-
kakku Very nice. I think I mentioned it before that your music would be perfect for a travelog type TV show.
-
RexRed pop rap? whatever, I really like it. voc needs maybe reverb esp to emphasize certain words
-
Freddy Lots of interesting things going on in the background. Not sure if you'd call it hypnotic but it had me tapping my toes. So is that really a can of Spam that somehow became a guitar?
-
Wow, thanks everyone! Freddy, yeah I get a bit misty eyed sometimes about what was and what could have been. John B, I wasn't aware of the 60s song you mentioned but I just did a google search and found out the other title is Turn Around. I don't remember how that song goes, but obviously the main lyrics stuck with me.

Monsieur Le Bat scores again with a professional level song that compares well with just about any famous rock group I can think of.

John Love the synth arps and glissandos. Kinda hypnotic after a while which is a good thing. Nice transition 2:15 to the guitar. I think the song is perfect for staring at screen saver animations while you're in the right frame of mind.? I bought Serum a little while ago but haven't used it much. Bit too daunting at the moment.

I've used that scale to get an eerie Spanish type sound. Really nice touch on the guitar there Rik.

Where are you going my little one? This is for those kids who never had a chance for a normal childhood because of some tragic circumstance they had to live through. I tried to bring my vocal track more upfront b/c of comments on previous songs and maybe now it's too much upfront? my singing does not suck, my singing does not suck, nope nope nope
-
Rik Very cool indeed. Great job!
-
douglas that's a really nice guitar groove going on in the background. really makes the song. your music is so melodic which is a big plus in my book.
-
John You pour your soul into your lyrics that's for sure. Have to say though and in all honesty your music is really good.
-
Freddy Don't know where you get your cover photos but they're always right on topic. Unless you write the song after seeing the picture? Anyway, another fun Freddy J blues song. Always impressed by your playing.
-
Wookie Nice choice of synths over the filter sweeps. Sounds like you had a fun improv session.
-
Grem I can really appreciate what a great job you did here because I tried playing along to the backing track myself. Me - not so good. You - fantastic.

Gary, amiller, Paul, Grem, Joad, Lynn, Freddy, Tom Thanks so much for listening and taking the time to comment.

Hey thanks! ?

https://vimeo.com/349172287/7520be7ea9 At the risk of totally embarrassing myself I'm posting this slide show/video. Back in the 1950's when everything was in black and white and analog, my father made an audio tape of my brother and me singing a couple of songs. I cleaned up the tape noise and then chopped up the audio into short phrases, then arranged them to make them fit the background music I wrote. Might be obvious in a couple of places. All done in Cakewalk. Nowadays your entire life has been recorded from your very first day on earth, but back then it was pretty rare to have an audio recording of yourself. Have to say that my singing talents have gone downhill since then. Audio in CbB Video in Vegas Pro.

amiller What Gary said above. Very expressive playing. I'm always amazed what you guitar guys can do.
-
Gary I was pretty sure you were overcome with genuine emotion while singing. Good decision to keep those parts in instead of re-doing them.
