For weeks, I've been trying to write a horn section into one of my songs but everything I come up with sounds like garbage when I listen with fresh ears.
 
Today, i'm at my office.  I'm listening to the demo on my headphones, and am pretty sure I just came up with the perfect lines!  I've scribbled out "Baaaah-bah-bah on the 1, 2.5 & 3 beat" but I know i'll forget the nuances by the time I get home.
 
My timing sucks.

Record it into your phone.

As they say, timing is everything!  In this case, your timing would have been better if you came up with the line at home. 
 
That said, Greg's suggestion is a good one.

I'm not sure recording "Baaaah-bah-bah on the 1, 2.5 & 3 beat" into his phone will be much good later either.

THANK YOU!

You need a mnemonic.  Picture the muppet band playing it, and I'll bet you'll remember how to do it.

I had mnemonica once. Fever and the shakes. Glad I'm bettah now.

Thanks Eph,
Now I just tried to fit the Muppets theme over a dirty blues swing.  It fit disturbingly well.
