Ya Buddy (Rockabilly)

I got a bit of a giggle from this.  I think the mix and production are perfect for this style of music.  This should bring a bit of cheer to all who listen to it.  Well done.

They always seem so tasty till you get a mouthful? And an earful? Yeah buddy, I know JUST what you mean! No matter how hot she is? Somewhere, there's somebody who's tired of her ....

People ask me if I'm in a committed relationship? And I say, no, no I'm happy. 


Enjoyed it.

Hey, Freddy,


Nice job on this very cool, upbeat Rockabilly number!


Great bouncy vibe, clever lyrics, excellent playing, super vocals and harmony, and a nice, clean, wide mix.


Good stuff, as always, buddy!

Great song!

Funny!

Well done!

Ya Buddy! Go Freddy! Both feet tappin! I love this!

Thank you for the smiles! Great job as usual!

Hi Freddy,

How are ya?  Nothing beats a FreddyJ tune on a Friday nite!

Great vocals/harmonies and cool guitar riffs...great stuff, as always.

This song is fun. The balance seems good. I could hear this on a good honky tonk station. Something around :50 seconds in started catching my ear. I think it may be a slight timing issue. Maybe something needs a little nudge forward. Of course, it may be my ears are just tired after a long day. Great job!

Good fun stuff Freddy, that's a smiler! Great simple, catchy chorus, sweeet.

I think the timing issues mentioned above are down to the kick/snare patterns in the turnarounds, they're straight whereas the guitars are shuffling.

Got a feeling you might do that on purpose though, 'cos I've mentioned it before.

Hi Scotty.  You are most welcome.  I appreciate your listening and Thank You!
 
Hey Darryl.  Thanks for the kind words and input.  I was trying to get a bit of a Carl Perkins feel on the 1st lead ----- on a lot of his stuff he comes in kind of late and then catches up.  I guess I better leave this kind of stuff to the pro's :>)   Thanks again.
 
Doin' great Gary!  Thanks buddy.  I appreciate your listening and kind words.
 
Thanks Glen.  It's about time I got close to doing something right :>)
 
Ron, Matt, James, and Reece ---- Doggone if you guys aren't good.  I went back and listened a couple of times and yup there was a little thing in the back.  As best as I could hear it was a kick/snare pattern difference, so I went back to the file.  I was using drum loops in this number and for some reason, I used a different loop series in the first sung verse.  I would like to say that I intended to but it was just a dumb error.  Thanks a bunch for bringing it to my attention and thanks for listening and commenting!!
 
Thanks Reece.  I was pretty green when I started on this forum.  I am grateful to you and the others on this forum who have listened to my stuff and offered up some great tips and explanations. I don't always make the corrections immediately to the specific song but I do take notes and try to apply everything that I have learned.  I know that I still have a long way to go but hopefully, I have improved a wee, little bit.  I can definitely say that I have had a ball in learning.

Loved it! production sounded totally authentic.

Hi Larry!  Thanks a million for the very kind words.  I really glad that you got a bit of a kick out of this.  Don't forget when you put on your white sox you have to stick them inside the dress Wellington boots with the bead chains hung around them and puff out that pompador-- oh ya, and don't forget your black leather jacket (with an eagle on the back) ;>)  Thanks again!
 
Hey Grant!  I very glad that you liked it.  I'll keep on listening to Rockabilly Radio and Rock-it Radio (on-line) to make sure I remember how this genre is supposed to sound.  Thanks for listening and for taking the time to respond.
 
BAPU -- thanks a bunch!!!!  I glad that this brought a smile to your face.  Nope -- it is not just you.  Some comments above pointed out the very same thing and all of y'all are right.  It was my error.  I was using commercial drum loops and I plugged the wrong one in the verses.  It was close enough that my unsophisticated ears did not catch it, but those that know what they are doing caught it.  I think that I must of had one of my senior moments?!..!?  Thanks again for listening and pointing that out.
