    Herb, This is really nice and tells a wonderful story in a country way. Nice instrumentation, arrangement, vocals and mix. Liked the lyrics on this one. Very nicely done.
     
    Peace and Blessings, John

    Love it Herb.  The lyrics, the music, very nice.  I have songs I want to sound like that, with those stringed instruments, expecially violin (fiddle), but I only play guitar.  Could you recommend a sample / synth package I might consider, or perhaps I should ask in another forum?

    Rimshot... thank you.
     
    Oleman : I use a number of synths and samples....Some of the things I use are cakewalk synths....  I PM'd you some info on some others. I didn't want to sidetrack this thread.

    Herb, you're totally evoking Willie Nelson.  The voice, the songwriting, the sound of the band.  Great work.  Love it!

    Hey, Herb,
     
    I remember this one!  Great song with excellent songwriting and performances, and a wonderful sentimental theme that makes your vocals really shine.
     
    Super job, Herb, thanks for reposting this, I hope it's an annual tradition!
     
    Have a good one, buddy!
    Bob
