This is fun!!!
Love the funky feel (especially in the beginning..).. I'd keep the steel drums too.
They make it a really cool intro.
Love the "horn" riff and I especially love your chord changes.. Fun song to listen to.
Had my head a'boppin even though I'm in the office listening.
 
 

Right in your wheelhouse Tom, and well done as always. Here are my nits/suggestions:
 
1. Replace the steel drums with... nothing at all! Let the guitar strum ring out.
2. IMO the horns need a bit more attack, more BAM, less legato. Each note needs to punch.
3. Keep on making brilliant quirky jazzy piano/bass tunes. You're great at it.

Dan, thanks for the horn tips. In my search, I found one called Fable Sounds Broadway Big Band - sounds pretty great, but it's from a didgy company, and it costs $2200. They have a "Lites" version but it looks really cut down. I'm a'thinking on it . . .
 
SteveC, thanks, yeah some cheese always slips in around here. I'll refrain from any analogies pertaining to politics. Thanks for the listen!
 
Mr.Grant, you sound like you know a groove or two yourself! Many many thanks!
 
Walt, a sincere thank you! I'm bugged by the horns and am looking to improve. I play a crappy trumpet myself. Oh yes, I'll keep 'em coming, thanks dude . . . and I know what I owe you! Stay tuned . . .
 
 
 
 

Funky Caribbean Ska -- you have created a new genre!  What a wonderful fun song.  It had me smiling all through it. The lyrics and vocals were very creative and I really liked the horns.  Oh ya, my vote is to keep in the steel drums.
Nice one indeed!
 

What a creative, intresting piece of music. I couldn't stop listening to this one. Very cool.
