Can someone tell me if this is a violation of copyright before I go any further?  It's a song called Miss Manipulation where I reference *little willy

Thank you so much for all your help guys!

If you mean do the songs remind each other then I don't think you have anything to worry about. The Sweet's Little Willy does not sound like your piece imo.

Thanks Kakku,
 
I'm always worried about the copyright police.  Doesn't the kontakt factory library tenor sax sound amazing?!  I'm always blown away whenever I use it. D:

Yes, the Kontakt factory library tenor sax does sound pretty good:)

I'm digging this.  Reminds me of Tom Waits, only much cleaner.  :)

Hey eph221 I did a SOUNDCLOUD trip to your page (and this has nothing to do with your question) and thought your songs were very good. 

Hi David,
Chiming in to say that this is a very cool idea. I like the motifs very much - they're catchy and make you go "Yeah!" :)

Those are all binary ideas (two parts to them).  Once I get binary ideas out into the open and let them live little lives, then I feel I can develop them. :D

well Miss Manipulation is a slippery beast isn't she?
not sure if I love or hate this. great main motif which works its way into your head. ending was a bit abrupt.
nice to hear a few things on this forum which are not straight rock songs and make you think a little (hey, I'm guilty)
