Description

Same song as previously posted. This has some guitar from Yeman in it. I have a full set of sax bits from Andy that I pulled but have ready to layer in. I had a few people say they wanted the base sound bed. So Andy... don't worry.. The sax will be back!

I have an idea in progress for this including vocals but I'd love to see what other people do with it. If you think you want to take a wack at it, I can send you the sax work as a separate layer that you can add in pieces of or the whole thing if you want. If anyone needs higher quality than this MP3, let me know I can get you what ya need.

I could also give any one pieces of this track or lower levels or whatever. Let me know!

	This has so many possibilities Mark A very dynamic piece as it is, with potential to go in many different directions. Love where it's at now and can't wait to see, (more correctly hear) where it goes from here. Ed Check out my latest song called Quack's Blues

This could go anywhere....
It has an exceptional drum part, in that it's not just timekeeping, but still manages to sound like it wouldn't get in the way of a vocal...

Neat deep bass stuff that's throbbing along beneath the main instruments....

Hope you get words or vocals that live up to this, Mark...

	Interesting Certainly moves along and is a clever arrangement. Maybe a bit too much "sizzle" on that crash cym but otherwise well made dynamically. I would look forward to hearing a good vocalist on this. It's certainly deserving of It. Well done. Check out my latest song called How Deep Is your Love
