It's All about Love.

I wrote this one and then found an RNB backer track on youtube to play against.
Then I added my own guitar licks, Vox & harmonies.
I had fun carving the backer so that the snare hit harder and the various existing instruments were not conflicting with the added tracks.

    A fun song! I love this kind of stuff. Interestingly, it's definitely blues, but the lyrics are positive. I like the message. Good work on the vocals and guitar. Tasty playing. If I have one critique, it is that the vocal timing seems a little sloppy toward the end.

    Thanks Guys and yes the bass is on the Backer.
    I just did Vox, harmonies and Guitar and then tweaked the Backer to fit in.

    How can you not like this!  Great dance tune.
     
    Tight guitar licks, clean an soulful.  Is that guitar tone all 'in the box' or amps and mics and then processing?
     
    Cool, my man, cool.

    Thanks for the listen
    If I recall, this guitar was my Strat thru a couple of stomps- a Boss CS3 compressor, an Ibanez DDL then my interface, the BR800 (Forgot which patch there but usually something clean and subtle). Then Prochannel preset Crunch clarity .
