Description:
When I get three hours free on a Saturday afternoon it's time to crank out a quick tune. Here it is - no lookin' back. I'll probably regret it tomorrow - but I sure had fun.

Lyrics:
Gimme gimme something I can take to the bank
Gimme gimme something I can take to the bank
Tell me something new I haven’t heard before
Gimme one good reason not to walk out the door

My stake in this deal is running out of juice
My interest is waning I’ve got nothing to lose
If we were more mature I guess we’d take our time
But I wanna to cash out and you’re the first in line


Hardware:
iMac G5, Ibanez bass, Danelectro guitar, Oxygen8 keyboard, Samson USB mic

Software:
GB3

surprise from you Bud. I think you got something you can take to the bank here. Really original sounding and a great rocking beat. Love the vocal effects. Would have liked it to last a lot, lot longer though. I think it would definitely be worth expanding.
Cheers
Len

Thanks Len &mdash 12/15/07 - 06:37:34 PM
Glad you like it. For this to go on any longer I'd have to write a whole other section and I didn't have time today - so I kept it to a 2 min. Ramones/Strokes thing.

I got my... &mdash 12/15/07 - 07:15:55 PM
...rock 'n' roll piano fired up, Bud. Nice high-energy number...one that you can definitely take to the bank! Night and day from Dog Days. You're definitely a versatile guy. I'm enjoying getting to know your music.
Peace.

Cool song &mdash 12/15/07 - 08:52:59 PM
and cool picture of the bank vault. Our bank in a small town downtown has exactly that vault and vault door!

I kind of sounds like you recorded the song in that vault.

Good stuff.

at the Queens Museum and we set up in the large elevator with the doors open. Thanks for stopping by.

Punk rock! &mdash 12/16/07 - 02:04:34 AM
Ma, this is great - tremendous energy and a '77 production - once this starts it just doesnt give u is grip - the keys really counterpoint the aggressive guitar - perfect as it is, Bud.

Thanks Steve &mdash 12/16/07 - 02:34:51 PM
I heard a little bit of the song E3 from Mars off the No New York creeping into this - had to fight it back. Thanks for the enthusiastic comment. You've been on quite a roll lately.

Hey Jack - &mdash 12/16/07 - 02:48:40 PM
This this tune was inspired by a new band I just discovered. They're called Division Day and they have a song called Ricky that is amazing. I was listening to KCRW yesterday when it came on. Immediately bought the whole CD on iTunes. Check em out.

I think &mdash 12/16/07 - 12:54:18 PM
that NYC punk doc you where involved with finally soaked in. very aggressive and I'm digging it.

Strokes &mdash 12/16/07 - 06:00:32 PM
Very The Strokes. The sound is energetic and thin, missing almost all the low and mid- middle EQ bands. Cool effect. This rocks! I love the cracking distorted break. I used to have a little battery powered megaphone that used to be able to make that noise. You won't regret this one. It will stand the test of time better than you think.
Philip

You nailed it with The Strokes &mdash 12/16/07 - 06:58:31 PM
I still think their first CD is great. The mix on this bugged me at first - until I realized it was also what made it work. Thanks for the encouraging remarks.

I like... &mdash 12/16/07 - 10:00:03 PM
...the keys in this. Nice juxt...

Three hours of fun...can't ask for more. Sounds great, bud.

Hey Bob - &mdash 12/17/07 - 09:17:56 AM
Happy Holidays! Thanks for stopping by. I usually can't find my keys - got lucky the other day.

Energy &mdash 12/17/07 - 06:30:53 AM
Energetic and fun. The processed vocal reminds me of Brownsville Station's "Smokin' In The Boys' Room" from the 1970s.

Lots of drive here, propelling the tune to its conclusion.

Now there's a smokin' tune - &mdash 12/17/07 - 09:22:19 AM

Very cool! &mdash 12/17/07 - 02:03:10 PM
All most makes me want to take up slam dancing again, only, you know, there's my knee, and my back, and my shoulder that gets sore when the weather changes, and my glasses....

Okay, maybe I'll just think about slam dancing and just enjoy the music...

try the chair pogo - it's a good ab workout and less dangerous.

Baleful Waking Morn is a killer. Nice of you to drop by. CB's is gone - but I'm still here.

back to your roots on this one. this is awesome. it's like a no wave gathering, featuring the strokes, gang of 4 and thurston moore. loving this.

[ Reply to This ]
Thanks Michael &mdash 12/17/07 - 07:40:49 PM
I listened to this on the train on my iPod today and realized I should have issued a warning label with this one. Philip is right - no mids - no bass - all screech. Nice - huh?

SAy Bud &mdash 12/17/07 - 06:19:43 PM
Are there many roots to this?

This rocks! &mdash 12/20/07 - 10:39:39 PM
Driving, straight ahead - kick out the jams! This is great. Nice guitar sound, and the bass works very well - a nice melodic line that keeps the whole thing moving along nicely. Nice bit of discordance on the guitar too. Nice one. Peace.

Thanks dajama &mdash 12/22/07 - 11:57:22 PM
real nice of you to stop by for a listen. Have a nice holiday.

Like it !!! &mdash 12/22/07 - 10:28:48 AM
Cool. A good rocking tune. Bought to mind Nik Turner of Hawkwind in his band Inner City Unit..which is good in my books.

[ Reply to This ]
I'll have to check out Inner City Unit &mdash 12/22/07 - 11:59:24 PM
new to me. I appreciate you stopping by and taking the time to comment. I've been enjoying your music lately.

[ Reply to This ]
great! &mdash 12/22/07 - 01:40:56 PM
liked it within the first 3 seconds. Hard rockin' and quirky! Reminds me of one of my fave bands Primus. Great mix.

[ Reply to This ]
Primus - now there's some serious weirdness &mdash 12/23/07 - 12:02:09 AM
I'm flattered. Thanks a lot.

[ Reply to This ]
Money! That's what I want! &mdash 12/22/07 - 08:33:34 PM
Quick, honest, raw. Who needs 3 days of studio time just to lay down the drums? I enjoy this more than some slick piece of radio mush.

Remember the Flying Lizards? &mdash 12/23/07 - 12:05:38 AM
Great arrangement. Really glad you could get into this - I feel the same way about immediacy. I recently bought Rebsie's CD and realized how much better it was than the overproduced versions of similar recordings. Have a great holiday - and thanks for stopping by.

Gimme something? &mdash 12/28/07 - 09:34:44 PM
Gimme more!

[ Reply to This ]
YEAH! &mdash 01/13/08 - 07:35:16 AM
Just caught your vid on the forums-this is GREAT! Lock and load and PLAY! Every now and then I hear something that makes my fingers itch and want to fire up the trusty Epiphone and level a few city blocks!

[ Reply to This ]
Rock on! &mdash 02/12/08 - 06:17:41 AM
Excellent work Bud! I saw your tips regarding Vocal effects on the Forum and came check out your song. Fantastic sound... very well recorded in my opinion. I'm new to MacJam. Have you done any collab yet? I would be honored to add a guitar phrase or anything you'ld like. All the best and congratulations on the song!
