I found a WAV file of a song that I did a few years ago.  Unfortunately, the working files were on that external hard drive that I dropped and destroyed a few years back.  I cleaned up the WAV as best I was capable of doing.  The song has a lot of flaws to it (e.g., a better balance on the vocal, either pull up the vocals or turn down the music, etc.) but I thought that I would post it anyway in hopes that it might bring at least a wee bit of a giggle.  As the SoundClick descriptor says.  Fritz and Manual we bored and decided to go strutting down 7th Avenue in Ybor City.  Fortunately (for the ladies) and unfortunately (for the lads) their attempt at picking up "babes" met with failure.
 
Anyway I hope it brings on a smile and thanks for listening.

I like the song and did smile the whole way through. All the parts seem to want to breakout and do their own thing but somehow it all works. The timing is out there but somehow comes together. Nice job! Get a backup drive!

Ybor city is my old stomping ground!  I used to go to Tracks like every weekend.  Thanks for the mammaries.

Put a smile on the furry mug Freddy with its claw tapping groove and amusing lyric.

Hi John.  Thanks for listening.  If only I had the working files.  I would have liked to try and clean this one up (given my lack of talent and knowledge on mixing, please note the word try).  I now have 2 one terabyte WD Passport external drives.  I do have a talent --- for breaking things.
 
Hey David.  Thanks for listening and for your comments.  Ybor is still there.  It keeps on changing but never seems to reach its potential.  When in the area, I used to go to the Blues Ship.  It closed a long time ago.
 
Thank you my furry friend.  I'm glad that it gave you a giggle.  There is nothing as joyous as a Wookiee with a smile!  ;>)
 
Hi James.  Thanks for listening and commenting.  I hope it brought a wee bit of a smile on your face.  Thanks again.

Congratulations, Freddy, you're definitely in a groove.  Your lyrics always entertain me, one of your best assets.  Thank you for all your encouragement over the years.

Cool jam man, thanks for sharing.  Yep I've spent a bunch of time in Ybor too.  A couple of years back we frequently played a club/pizza place called "Market on 7th".   Sounds like 2 guys walking and partying.  Has a good feel to it.

My wife and I spent one night there - the night before the 2000 Super Bowl - what a crazy time we had - great fun.
 
Freddy - you -put together a bunch of crazy sounds that all go together perfectly. This is really a fun song - so well done. Love it Freddy.
